Loading up my Retroid with a few. I found a Deadpool NES game that actually is super cool, a Halloween Kirby game, Shovel Knight and Celeste ported to older consoles, stuff like that.

What are your favorites? I usually go for action/platforming/metroidvanias, and stray away from turn based RPGs. Only catch here is the hack has to be PS2 era or earlier.

Pokemon Emerald Z. Decent fakemon romhack that is not super difficult like Altair/ Sirius/ Vega.
Pokemon Unbound and Gaia for new region hacks.
I also have kind of a soft spot for Pokemon Glazed and Giratina Strikes Back. Mainly because they came out at a time when pokemon romhack game balance and stories were awful. Meanwhile Glazed was just a regular get all eight badges story while Giratina Strikes Back at least had some semblance of level scaling/ balance/ no Lv 80 vs your own Lv 40 pokemon bosses.
