NOW ACCEPTING MORE THAN JUST MARIO!

Our transition is finally beginning! We are officially now accepting other Nintendo franchise submissions across the board - not just fangames, but sprites, tutorials, and sounds too! Hacks are presently exempt for the time being, but we do have plans to allow non-Mario hacks in the near future, the main site software is just a bit quirky and since hacks themselves are a new submission category, they require a bit more work/troubleshooting to ensure that a franchise category can work smoothly with it.

This is just phase one of our big plan. You'll notice the site still says "MFGG", our URL is still "mfgg.net", and that it looks pretty identical visually. Well, we decided to roll out each part of the plan piece-by-piece for ease of use and to see how things go for each big part. We do intend to change the site's name and branding, full disclosure. We're in talks with merging with an existing fangame site or two once everything comes close to completion, so look forward to more information as things happen!

So yes, tl;dr - we are now allowing other Nintendo franchises to be submitted! If there are any problems with the functionality of this stuff (any bugs or oddities), don't hesitate to contact Hypernova about anything of that nature. He played a major part in getting this up and running so quickly and he wants to know if anything is working improperly. The current list of franchises in the categories is entirely subject to be added to if there is enough demand, but we figured this was a good enough amount for now. If people really want "F-Zero" as its own category, we'll make it happen. I know I'll be pushing for that.

With all that out of the way, here is your last Mario-only update!

Recent Additions


We hope you guys submit a ton of awesome Zelda and Metroid content, among many other well known series. We welcome Mario's Super Smash Brethren with open arms!

Would Pokémon be its own franchise? Or would it fall under a separate company with The Pokémon Company and such? I'm unsure if Pokémon is still considered a Nintendo product.

Pokemon is quite a risk due to TPC's greed.

Pokemon is kind of in a complicated scenario, Nintendo has some sharew with Pokemon but it's not 100% ownership. If we start to accept such submissions, there will be strict measures (no sfx/gfx rips) to avoid legal actions. Once we got enough demands for the Pokemon series, we should open up a topics at the forums and discuss the best solution.

I feel like those other Nintendo franchises should be in separate sections and not just all Nintendo franchises mixed together in the submissions, but other than that good to hear.

Yeah to be fair, even that I am quite familiar with the backend of the current site software. I have patched some of the bugs here and there. Unfortunately making a completely new section would be extremely difficult and far fetched since we need to rewrite a lot of things for the main site software. However we do have someone writing a new site software where we can separate franchises properly.

Or that. Great idea!
