    I don't think it is a higher entry bar that made Lua scripts less popular than rom hacks. Lua scripting is emulator dependent, while a rom hack will theoretically work on any emulator or even an actual console. A rom hack is theoretically fairly future-proofed as well. Once applied, a hacked rom is also a single file to deal with. The video mentions the security issues of Lua scripts. Some may also view the difference as a "purity" issue, Lua scripting starts to bridge into PC remake territory. There are numerous issues that can turn people away from Lua scripts. (I have to admit that I myself tend to use them more for analysis or enhancing emulator features rather than something closer to rom hacking.)

      I was just looking for possible just fun scripts. And, you're probably right, plus programing in general can be hit and mis. Even for old retrogames. Being able to just choink it into a emulator is a lot more appealing than hopping a github repo still lets you download. Or even show up on google in the first place. Where as, like you said, a good chance that a rom might be on romhacking and probably work what ever emulator. I made a romhack of supermario world, for having mario run much faster, and reduce input lag. When (or if) I publish that. People can play it on just about any emulator. Where as hacks for even something basic like just pick up a shell or jump at random: demends on the emulator, and rom version (barf)

    Wow, these look really cool. You can do a ton more with the scripts than I was expecting. I'm surprised this never took off, it looks like some crazy stuff could be done. But, like you said, it is probably because rom hacking is so much simpler, with a lot of it just being drag and drop.

    Waaaaay back in 2011, I was working on a Lua script where you can play the original Zelda multiplayer over a network connection. It was mostly finished but I never finished everything... Guess it's one of those doomed projects.
    That said though, it's an AMAZING example of what can be done with Lua scripts!
    EDIT: A commentor wanted me to upload this for viewing\editing. It's VERY rough and I don't really wanna work on it anymore, so here it is for whoever wants it:

    Not a script but what Mario Chaos reminds me of is that there is a few RAM values you can change in 1st gen Pokemon to cause a slow but unpredictable chain reaction RAM corruption that basically made it like a ROM hack.

      This is actually a great idea. I've done something like this in actual NES code but there are a lot of smart ways to help avoid various crashes. I've already seen a corrupter script using rewinding which is nice, but there's things you can do like detecting a delay in "sprite-0 hit detection" or detecting when a game tries to execute some memory it isn't supposed to.
