{{short description|Editing technique for video games}}
'''ROM hacking''' (short for '''Read-only memory hacking''') is the process of [[Video game modding|modifying]] a [[ROM image|ROM image or ROM file]] to alter the contents contained within them, usually of a [[video game]] to alter the game's graphics, dialogue, levels, gameplay, and/or other elements. This is usually done by technically inclined video game fans to improve an old game of importance, as a creative outlet, or to make new, unofficial games using the old game's engine. ROM hacks typically redesign a game for an all-new, fun gameplay while keeping most if not all of the items the same, as well as unlocking and/or reimplementing features that existed in the game's code but are not utilized in-game.
