and that translation becomes obsolete some day because the translator wasn't happy with some part of the translation, it means we are still distributing their old work, that they weren't happy with. It's bad publicity for the translator.
I guess that is true for every media anyways right?
Wether it be a VHS or DVD there is always going to be old translations avalible mate. And I don't tend to like the work less just because there is a new translation avalible. Unless the translation is very bad. Like in old asian flicks, such as Story of Ricky. Hillarious movie with crap translation that makes it even better. ;)
Anyways. What I'm saying is that it would be foolish not to go ahead to use translation packs. Translators may be sorry for releasing bad translations. But if they release it at all I think they have to deal with the concequences of people using it. Thats what it's like everywhere. Why should we be any better than that?
Old work will always be distributed when it comes to movies, hence old translations as well. Go to the retro section at your local video store.

Virtually any game is a possible entertainment source. If you can make this game without providing much boredom to it, go for it. I'd watch this run for sure.
Keep in mind that it's hard to get an audience for such games though, so the ratings might not be what you thought they would be in the first place.

Wether or not this site is accepting more Super Metroid hacks, one can still make them and post them in the forums for people to admire.
It really doesn't always need to get published to be entertaining.

I remember having KI and KI2 as some sort of large image file. Perhaps it's the arcade roms? They take around 600MB or something. Used to play it with Ultra64.
