>It's also the reason why there were hundreds of very simple graphics hacks of NES games, usually Super Mario Bros, where the graphics all just replaced with weed or penises or swastikas. Nothing was edgier to kids back then than swearing, dicks, saying gay/fag, weed, and bringing up Hitler, which the internet and especially romhacks and flash animations let them easily do.
Should also add, this was further made popular/easier due to Nesticle being the most popular and well known NES emulator at the time (Which the name and and of itself is an example of the humor of teenagers at the time, to say nothing of the "company" that made it being called Bloodlust Software and one of the creators going by "Shitman: The Fecal Lord") had a built-in sprite/tile editor. It was very basic and could not mess with many more advanced games, but it was enough for much simpler games like Super Mario Bros, which had literally thousands of such romhacks for it because of this. It also massively helped that any changes you made you could see in real-time as you was editing them, even while the game was running. It was how I and I am sure many others realized that the bushes and clouds in Super Mario Bros were actually just the same graphic but with a different pallet and how some sprites were just half a sprite flipped and mirrored.
