No. You shouldn't. Continue with your Genesis port.

Lol , I hope so

seriously, that made me think to do the same but instead, making Megaman 7
I started looking at it, and I'm pretty sure I could get MM7 running on NES.... With some compromises of course

I don't get it. If Megaman 7 was on SNES and Megaman 8 was on Playstation, why would 9 and 10 be on the NES? They'd be more likely to put it on the Wii or something. They're not going to start making games for outdated systems.

Yeah, but MM7 was made for PC by fans using NES style, as well as MM8
I want to port those for NES hacking rom

And, yes, some guy works on MM9 for NES hacking the MM3 rom

Sure, compromises would have to be done, but hey, the heck!

Not sure how much profits you can get off by making repros considering the amount of time involved, parts etc..

To be honest, I'm more concerned by people selling counterfeit copies of rare retail games

Making repros takes minutes on most titles.

translations from 10-15 years ago is one thing, but something just released is another.

Why is it that people keep saying MM 9 and 10 are not possible on the nes? We have games like Recca that absolutely push the limits of the NES. So if Recca is possible, why not MM9 and 10?

It's possible, but not a straight "port" the way some people seem to think it'd be. Same with other games that "look" retro but aren't really (like AVGN's upcoming game for instance or that mash-up PC game I saw featuring all the Nintendo characters).

The Mega Man's are possible because there's games you can hack (NES Mega Man's) to jury-rig into the newer releases. They aren't technically "ports".

Not to play devil's advocate, but why should it matter if something is 10-15 years old or more recent...?

Timewalk would release a CIB of both the second they were completed and possible on NES carts and charge their normal NES CIB price for them. I guarantee it.

I wouldn't "guarantee" that at all. There are more factors that go into releases than a ROM simply being available.

I agree

but, even if I'm going into the trouble of hacking a Megaman rom into Megaman 7
i don't really care much, I'm doing it only to see it playing on a real NES.
Call this, personal challenge

it's not like if it was an original game (i.e. Battle Kid)

Though, I'm not saying that its ok to make profits out of others work
i'm against in fact
but there is always people trying to make money from others works
sad but true.

I'd be shocked if y'all didn't.

The only reason I could see it not being an automatic is the whole having recently dealt with Capcom thing in regards to the Ducktales carts.

Actually, the tie-in would be brilliant: if I was a Timewalk guy I'd contact Capcom the second the games were doable and ask for their blessing.

The ROM wouldn't be there work though. Legally I don't think they could. It would be immensely complicated.

Legally they can't make any of the games on their site, so I doubt that is a concern!

As opposed to the other repros that Timewalk does? How is this different than that? Because there was a business transaction with the Duck Tales LE?

I was referring to Capcom regarding this new MM9 romhack. I doubt they could legally release that ROM without coming to an arrangement of some sort with the hacker.

I'm well aware of what TWG does.

To elaborate, a 1:1 port might be pushing a bit much. A big concern would be flicker, which would be a huge problem unless you like graphics fading in and out of reality. Another one seems to be how Splash Woman is "impossible" on an NES, but she really is with some clever palettes; her main palette should be black/white/blue, and her second palette would be yellow/red/light blue, and overlay those colors over her body. Flicker would occur, but she works on an NES now, and Hard Man already flickers when you enter his room.

Yeah, I think of games like Recca, Mr. Gimmick, or Batman Return of the Joker and I definitely see a quality and faithful port of MM9 and 10 possible of the NES.
