I recently came across a colorization that turns the original black and white/green version of Pokémon Red for the GameBoy into a proper GameBoy Color title. This sent me down a bit of a rabbit hole, but the sheer number of hacks that have been made over the course of several decades is slightly overwhelming, so I’d love to get a decent first selection by hearing which are your favorites that have improved or transformed console and handheld games in meaningful or entertaining ways.

Thanks in advance!

    Shadowrun (SNES)

    I had never even heard of this game, but reading the description on Wikipedia, it sounds absolutely fascinating. Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll definitely give it a go!

      It’s a really fun game - and if you want a more typical action-RPG vibe, you should also seek out the Genesis Shadowrun game. The games are very different, but both are true to the Shadowrun experience.
