In my day, they recreated the game from scratch and inserting random shit form Donkey Kong. And they did it in 2 weeks. And sold they games in magazines.

Majora's Mask is really different from Ocarina of Time, more so than what could conventionally be done in a ROM hack without having access to the source code.
>Link's movement, particularly while Z-targeting has been entirely overhauled
>Item tables and target item drops completely changed
>Deku nut effectiveness completely changed
>Completely new enemies with unique coding introduced
>An entirely different clock system from the one found in OoT
Among tons of other differences that couldn't be done via simply modifying the base Ocarina of Time ROM.

Sonic 2 in general. It was literally built onto Sonic 1's ROM as evidenced by the earliest prototypes available.

One is meant to be less cutesy than Puyo Puyo while being based on Kirby.
The other is meant to be less cutesy than Puyo Puyo while still featuring Carbuncle.

They took a completely random Japanese game and swapped out the character images and made up all the text. There are a heap of places that still have Japanese text and one of the characters is called John when its clearly a woman in a dress. Its a really fun adventure style game with a platform section near the end, if you know what to do you can beat it in about 20 minutes.

I guess that makes Oracle of Ages and Seasons is also a really good romhack.
