I wouldn't mind mine being sold, I'd only ask for a copy of it. But, if you ever get around to do it Katy, throw me a PM, because I have a minor bugfix that I need to update before I can call Hard Type the "definitive" version.
The update wouldn't take much longer than a few days to do, but I need to do it and I'm focusing on other projects. So, just PM me and we'll talk.

I'm in no rush, whenever you are ready I am. Thanks for the permission to sell; I can't guarantee that it will work on hardware but its worth a try. And if it does indeed work, the first one copy made will be yours.

While I wouldn't argue against that (lol), I'd imagine that these hack repros aren't exactly flying off the shelves so to speak enough to warrant any financial kickback to the hack author(s)... at least the FFVI ones anyway, the Zelda ones (and possibly others) could very well be another story.
But along with the cost and time it takes these people to create the cart and then do the footwork selling it, as well as possibly some legal risk involved, and have it at all worth it for themselves considering it's usually more of a side-hobby instead of a primary business venture in the sense that it's a specialty store compared to current gen mainstream, I doubt they could do that and still stay in business with the current prices of the games.
Could be wrong though, I'm really not too sure how popular/demanding or lucrative it really is.
And I certainly do respect your opinion! Especially considering how broke and unemployed I currently am ;_; But the fact of the matter is they really don't have to do anything, so a cart or two sent the way of the author is a most welcomed gesture indeed. As well as the whole getting in touch with/asking permission, but again that's not mandatory as well, just the right & moral thing to do I guess.
That's just my 2 cents about it, hopefully I made a good point or two somewhere in there lol.

I'll be honest, they aren't real popular, but we promote them whenever the opportunity arises. so if $5-10 floats your boat every now and then, we will send it your way... It's nice to have different options though, especially at the shows. And it is a side hobby/ little extra cash here and there kind of deal.
It's fun going to different cons and whatnot and meeting different people and seeing what others are selling- whether it be stuffed animal anime or glowing necklaces- its neat. We also meet others who are doing the same thing, and get to see our competition; no one sells multi carts like us though so that gives us an advantage. Most dig what they know or used to play when they were younger. From here out though we will happily send out a cart or 2 to the creators if/when we plan to sell.

It might be something you'd wanna arrange with each modder.
In my case, for example, I'd rather have the game being sold $10 cheaper, because my goal is for people to play my mod - I honestly couldn't care less about making money out of it. Having a good familiar selling the games in their store in actual carts would be pretty cool for my project, simply becuase of the option of having it.
But I know some others might want or even need the money, so again. Everything's better with communication.

Throwing in my 2 cents on the matter...
Ever since I started modding, the most typical response I've gotten from my family on the matter is, "yeah, but is it something you can sell?" It's aggravating as fuck because I do not agree with the mentality that thinks of nothing but profit. I often preach that the golden rule of modding is to make the game *you* want to play, and I believe that true art is made for the love of the art and nothing more.
As you can see, you will find that mentality is common on this website - we give our work away for free, after all, and have poured our lives into something that brings us nothing more than the pleasure of a job well done in return. It's simply a matter of principle. As I mentioned to you when we first spoke, far moreso than any monetary or physical compensation, I value the relationships I have forged through the creation and promotion of my mod first and foremost.
In my mind, that's really just the way things should be. And they say that a true hero lives in the world as if it were the way it should be, so...
</rant>
P.S. Totally wasn't kidding about the redhead thing above >.>

I agree 100% BTB... But I like money, too. Obviously the goal isn't to make money, but some free booze or gas would be appreciated.

I think the ultimate dream of a hack creator is to play their creation on a console. Good to see someone making that dream come true, welcome!

Indeed, my ultimate goal(in FF6 hacking) is finish CotG and play it on TV screen.

Can't make the redhead part happen- I'm blond and married...
I think it's cool as shit that you all can change a game and mod it to what you want, or just to make it hard as hell. I don't know the first thing about it, but I applaud all of you that know how. I get the monetary compensation, but if relationship building with fans of your mods is what you want we can give that info out as well (we already have you set up for that BTB)

Thanks for the warm welcome! Let me know when you are done and we will test it on real hardware for you, and if you don't want it on the market we will respect your wishes.

We all started out knowing pretty much squat about how any of this works. I got my start as a modder by evaluating other peoples' mods for a little game called Morrowind, and then eventually my desire to change little things about them led to me learning more and more about how it worked.
Even for FF6, I think I got it pretty easy. Synchysi gave me an editor, so everything I do is just me dicking around with it and changing settings. He's the one who actually has the game cracked wide open and does everything that I can't do with my editor.
I'm not quite sure where I was going with this.

BTW, you can add more content to a post by using the Edit button in the bottom right (instead of posting multiple times in quick succession). Just to keep things more organized a little. .gif)

Fuck the mods on this site. They abuse their power.
