LETS TALK ABOUT PIRATE GAMES! YOHOHO AND A BOTTLE OF RUM!

So yesterday I downloaded a truck load of bootleg/pirate game ROMs for my sega genesis emulator. I haven't got through half of my load yet, but I've played quite a lot so far, especially the ones that I've heard about. So far, there are good ones, bad ones, and god awful sacks of shit.
So RMN, what hacked/pirated games have you played lately? Here's my rundown of a few of the stuff I played so far:
Pokemon Stadium (Megadrive):Sub Par
- I don't know what game it's a hack from. It's kind of an interesting tactical battler... thingy where you face other pokemon. The killer is the fact that arcade mode only lets you play one round against a koffing (or "Dogas" as it's called in this game) and then bugs out and boots you to the title screen. There is also a vs. mode where you can face a friend, but good luck with that.
A Bug's Life:Bad
- I love the movie, but I hate this game. Your character jumps as high as an overweight rhinoceros, and the controls are horrifically delayed. You thow berries at bugs which should be bigger than you (since you're an ant) but due to the curved direction, plus the fact that most of your enemies are ground-based, they miss about half the time, and you can't throw while jumping or ducking. I can't get pass the first level, it just sucks.
Shui Hu Feng Yun Zhuan:Decent
- This is one of the few games that I've been able to beat so far. It's a pretty good beat-em-up, if not a little hard. The fact that you can't recover when enemies surround you kind of kills it sometimes, also there is a bit of a character imbalance from the three choices you are given. The blue-haired, big-breasted chick is the best character in the game, the other two have lacking speed and the ranges of their weapons are horrid. Other than that, I actually liked this game.
Sonic Jam 6:Bad
- This game's existence is just a disgrace. It's a direct clone of Super Mario Bros. on the Super Nintendo, only you're playing as Sonic the Hedgehog. Actually, it's not a direct clone, its one of the worst attempts at cloning a simple platform game I've ever seen. For a start, the jumping controls are REALLY sensitive. You have to press and hold in order to make Sonic jump as high as possible, and any lighter he doesn't. The hit detection for the enemies and even the blocks are screwed up, too. You have to be DEAD CENTER of a goomba in order to kill it without getting hit, and you tend to "slide" off of platforms. I stopped playing after the game crashed when a bugged Lakitu was throwing spinies at every SPLIT SECOND on the screen. I don't recommend this game to anyone.

I think the last pirated game I played was Cities in Motion, because I thought the demo was too short so I had to try the game proper. I played a bit and found it fun and I'll probably buy it eventually.
i played this really twisted version of SMB 1 where the coins were heroin needles, the 1-ups were weed leaves, the Piranha plants were cigarettes that would open up.
The goombas were cock and balls. i dont remember the rest but there was more.
All of it worked perfectly i would still play if had an emulator.

I honestly can't remember the last time I actually bought a game. Not that I'm admiting to anything.
Despite, that game looks amazing. I've only played genesis pirate titles so far, I have yet to find the NES games.
Who could ever forget THIS:
This game sucks. I remember playing this piece of garbage because I was curious / stoned enough to give this thing a go. Ugh.
Ratty, I rather play YOUR 'Chrono Trigger' acid fest than this craptastic nightmare (that's not saying your joke game isn't bad or...okay, I said too much). :D

WHAT? No Gato? Pokemon and chrono trigger... Usually with pirate games they just take a released game and mod/hack it with their own graphics, the original game is still the same pretty much.

Wow, those graphics are... such a mess. They mix Pokemon, SD3, RMRTP. Creepy.
I haven't played much pirated games lately. I have a NDS, but all my games are original. And so are my brother's XBOX games which I play eventually. And I haven't played any roms. TBH, not a fan of this topic's title.
I love looking at bootleg games because being a huge gamer nerd I know p much all there is to a lot of games out there. But bootlegs are still mysterious to me. There's always something really weird about the graphics sometimes that can be mesmerizing, like most of the programmers and artists have no pride so they just make the game as fast as they can and it produces... interesting results.
