A, why did you bother looking it up and two, why the gently caress does it being a romhack justify it?

It does the opposite. A sprite replacement would be one thing, but someone designed wholly original levels for that thing, probably with whole new bosses. I don't know for sure, but bosses are sort of mega man's whole thing. So yeah, a lot more effort went into it than one would expect.

Considering Japan's legal system kinda got saved over by a reverse-plagiarized copy of Euro/US treaties, their relaxed view on derivative works makes about as much sense as anything else?

All I know about 'Fallout Equestria' is that goons seem to hate it for being [grimdark pony rape fanfiction] or something along those lines(?) which is more than I ever needed to know about it.

Those aren't page numbers in the table there. Those are chapter numbers. It actually is longer than War and Peace (40,000 words longer than the longer English language edition, in fact). Though I wouldn't necessarily say effort went into it. It's easy to make a whole lot of bad.

I found this on Youtube and it is an actual trailer for a My Little Pony/ Castlevania game.

I know the usual formula is Thing I like x Thing I like = Art, but I just don't GET this at all. It says it's a parody game but other than the title being a pun it looks like someone added ponies for the main characters and nothing else. Why would you go to the trouble of making an entire game that is literally the same as a game that already exists?
Oh hey I've actually played this

While I'm in full agreement that adding ponies to everything got old ages ago, Ponyvania is actually not a bad game despite what it is. The backgrounds are obviously taken from Castlevania but it's not just a straight up sprite replacement, stages are original. Character editor is pretty neat, equipping armor is reflected in the sprite and despite the name it's not a OoE ripoff, it's a Classicvania. Controls can be a bit clunky but all in all it's surprisingly solid for a pony fangame.

Touhou is interesting because there's just enough characterization of the hundreds of various girls-in-silly-hats in it that they can be shoehorned into just about anything. There's an entire series of images of Touhou x CoD Modern Warfare. Even a few animations of various scenes replaced with Touhou characters. And that's by far not the strangest crossover. There's a crossover of Touhou with pretty much everything. There's also literally at least a million separate fanarts of Touhou on Pixiv alone.

I'm sure it doesn't help that actual 'plot' in those games amounts to everyone being drunk and ready to shoot their doom lasers at each other because somebody spilled somebody else's tea or some poo poo.

Nah, Touhou music is good in the original form, but there's like 90,000(literally) different remixes out there of various tracks, so people tend to cling to the best examples of those.

The original stuff is good too though and shows a great feel for composition, considering every single other part of the game from the coding to the (bad) artwork is also done by the one guy.

For example, you might have a track such as Rigid Paradise:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vaw8WyORAZY

And then one of the more notable remix groups comes along and adds a bit of Lady Gaga style to it, and presto, it becomes [Desire]:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CL4kgQEJb6E

This was composed while he was drunk, and yet is one of my favorite original tracks of his.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dJA_YLSPz0

Touhou music is great, and so are remixes. I made a significant collection of sorted stuff, weeding out the garbage, and reuploaded it to Nyaa.eu after Alluvion exploded. Enjoy!

Well, the composition of his music is really good, but if you can't handle Zun Trumpets(the trumpeting sounds a lot of his tracks have) then I can understand not liking it. When transferred to actual instruments, they're often outstanding.

The remix collection I posted was originally something like 10,000 that I whittled down to that amount. There's a lot of lovely Touhou remixes out there, but plenty of good ones too.

My personal favorite, Nuclear Fusion, is eminently remixable
