Yes, a bracket.

Wait... What don't you see (I'm not sure I see it either...)?

EDIT: Thanks to this thread I finally worked out how to write the "insert_user wrote" at the top of quotes XD

Is there any way to hack games to edit them? Say change a picture?
May 19, 2011 at 2:48am
Yes. I was involved in a community that does this to retro games (NES, SNES, PSX, etc). There are even hacks that translate game from one language to another. Other hacks completely remake the game by adding new levels and stuff.

I wanted to do a little joke. Everyone remembers pokemon. Pokemon white and black have a fire type pokemon that's a pig and I want to learn to hack it to change it's picture to bacon.

What system is that for. DS?

Check this site for how-tos and utilities. Your best bet is using a generic tile editor like Tile Molester. I don't know if there's any game-specific utilities for those games yet:

"Everyone remembers pokemon."

If only that were so, couldn't afford expensive things like GameBoys or whatever they were released on when it came out...

Come to think of it I've never played pokemon once...

I sadly sold all my old games a while back. Only after did I realise they had more emotional value than monetary :/

Xander I've heard the same story word for word about 200 times over. Whenever people tell me they're 'cashing in' all their games to buy a new console or whatever I just tell 'em it's not worth it...

At least you know you'll never do the same thing again Xander, there can be comfort in that.

It's not just games, selling your stuff in general seems to be quite bad.

On retro systems like NES, SNES, GBA, etc, emulation is superior to the actual system.

Even back when I had the real systems I never used them.

Emulation's great up to the SNES, and then you start missing a working controller. (GB an exception)

I never had a SNES or anything like that, but I've got a SNES emulator and I must say games like Final Fantasy V and Chrono Trigger are pretty fine.

Get a PSX->USB adaptor. They're like 10 bucks. Then PSX emulation is fine, along with lots of other systems. Works great for NES/SNES/GBA too

N64 is a little weird, but then you can just get an N64->USB adaptor.

Emulation doesn't feel quite the same to me...

That's why it's emulation and not the real thing chrisname.
