Pokémon Prism
is a fan-made ROM hack for Pokémon Crystal. Over the course of eight years, creator Koolboyman and his team crafted a new Pokémon experience, which they hoped to release this Christmas. Nintendo hit them with a cease and desist four days before release. Thanks to a group of pirates, the project still made it to the internet.
ROM hacking involves editing the read only memory on video game software in order to change how the game is played. Pokémon Prism was going to add character customization, the ability to play as your Pokémon, original gas-type and sound-type monsters, and an entire new region to explore within Pokémon Crystal. The goal was to create a whole new experience.
The game was highly anticipated and an early build was played on the famous Twitch Plays Pokémon channel to show off the new features to fans. Everything seemed ready for an official release until December 21st, when representatives of Nintendo sent a cease and desist to the project.
Following the cease and desist, Koolboyman shut down his website, which also hosted Pokémon Brown, a ROM hack for Pokémon Red, as well as Rijon Adventures, a hack for Pokémon FireRed. As a final build was never released to the wider public, Prism seemed doomed.
And yet, the next day, the files for Pokémon Prism surfaced on 4chan anyway. Attached with the files was a README file from pirates who claimed to be “ a group of people interested in seeing ROM hacks succeed.” According to the document, these folks allegedly have no affiliation with the actual team behind Pokémon Prism and instead got the files because “a dev got careless.” Despite the looming threat of legal action, these individuals left an email address where anyone could reach them. So I did.
The Prism Distributors were understandable concerned with anonymity. Individuals found liable for ignoring a cease and desist can face thousands of dollars in fines. A perceived breach by Koolboyman or another member of the project could have dire ramifications. The group even denies knowing who first placed the files on 4chan. All that mattered was getting the game to the public.
“Regardless of Nintendo’s legal rights, we do believe that they are destroying their fans’ hard work for no reason and at no gain,” they said. “Nintendo could have used this (and any other good ROM hack) as an opportunity to promote the Pokémon series in general. They don’t even have to do anything other than let the games live.”
The file distributed by the pirates wasn’t an exact replica of what the public would have played. To avoid any problems for the Prism team, the leakers altered the game, and deleted the credits.
We would like the original developers to be recognized for what they did,” the Prism Distributors said. “However, leaving their names in puts them at an unnecessary risk.”
With the credits, the leakers instead opted to place a thank you message at the end of the game for fans who managed to complete it. While it might seem like these efforts required a great deal of planning, they were a last minute response to Nintendo’s cease and desist.
