Romhack Plaza has taken the bold move today to open up NUDE hacks, which may feature nudity.
Users MUST opt-in in their profile in order to access any of these when they are available.
If you do not opt-in, you won’t be able to access them at all.
At the bottom of romhack submissions is now a NUDE checkbox.
All submissions will be reviewed by staff to make sure that these hacks remain reasonable.
If you plan to submit, please review the updated rules here: https://romhackplaza.org/rules-guidelines/
These hacks will NOT be indexed or show up under recent romhacks. You must access them through the NUDE romhacks portal in the ROMHACKS section.
Thank you all for your support!

Will there be a filter so we can easily show all the “NUDE” hacks?
Asking for a friend.
If you enabled the option, you can have it in Romhack / Homebrew section. “Go to the Nude section”.
Based
Really thought ‘NUDE Romhacks’ was a term to describe debug tools for older games but nah it really just means pixel nudity :^P
Ayo bro what!? O-o
Is it weird that I could see that title being read as “Hey guys we got NUDES now, you MUST OPT IN, or else.”
Seems relatively uncontroversial, though I think it was a bit too easy to access. Granted, honest to god porn sites with things that made me genuinely question the state of humanity are even easier to access, and it would be a lot of effort for what is basically a list of haha funny nude girl hacks, but it’s a concern nonetheless. I could see some angry mums trying to take the site down over it because moderately successful youtuber suggested the site, and ipad kid manages to find the funny nuked hacks option.
I mean, we DID say it was a bold move xD
I don’t see the issue. You don’t wanna see the sauce, don’t opt in. Crying about it and complaining about how gross it is is just repressive.
Good idea making it opt-in
By “nude hacks”, do you also mean adult/NSFW games too? I got quite a few PC-98 translations that I could submit, but there is a bit more than just “nudity” in them.
Alright, just checked the updated guidelines. It excludes a big part of my work (Yu-No, Rance and Lakers series for instance), but some of it would be OK. I’ll make some stuff ready for submission later.
It is kind of ironic how so many comments said they needed RHDN to stay around to keep track of translations of games that never left Japan, but most PC-98 translations were never allowed there to begin with. RHDN was never suitable for all translations despite what many apparently thought.
Actually, now that I think about it though, it always felt a little weird to me. Most translation files don’t themselves contain any explicit content, other than strings of course. You don’t need to include explicit screenshots for those games, and it is not like the content of the games themselves are hosted on site, right? So why ban them? SEO is my guess, but I don’t really know.
Thank you for your work by the way, you are giving these games a new life outside Japan.
If they are *faithful* translations, and you are not adding content that was not in the original, they will absolutely be accepted.
imagine just “freaking” out seeing all of these “nude” romhacks just because you deliberately set your profile to enable viewing them and then going to the specified portal to see them. truly a RHDO moment 👍
Making people opt in before being able to see them is a genius move.
Keep up the excellent work guys, site’s getting even better by the day!
Huh?
There’s gotta be a better alternative to NUDE right? I mean it is what it is and I respect that you’re both willing to host it and keeping it sectioned off but surely it would sound at least a little less seedy with a label like mature or adult or something similar.
The problem is we originally tried to go with NSFW/18+ but the fact is that we aren’t trying to hide games simply with mature content behind a filter.
Hmmm. How about “Unappareled”. Something along the lines of “unalived” instead of killed that some social media apps enforce.
Okay but this is actually pretty gross now.
This is completely disabled and you can’t see any of these unless you specifically OPT-IN in your profile.
People will only be offended if they chose to opt-in, which is on them.
Might be a good idea to call it “limited NSFW” in the headline.
Don’t want netizens thinking about Wario visiting a nudist colony.
Even if there WAS such a hack a person would have to intentionally make an account, intentionally set their account up to be able see it, and then intentionally look for it.
Haha. Yeah, I agree. There doesn’t seem to be much of an issue so far, any road.
Mind sharing why something being here that you have to opt-in to even see offends you? Seems creepily childish for someone who is presumably an adult posting.
