I always have too many projects, but only a few of them are ROM hacking projects. I tend to also have homebrew projects, utilites projects, non console programming projects, website stuff, etc. Plus, non video gaming stuff, like writing d20 adventures and rules, building minatures, and trying to learn to not suck at Shogi. Not to mention a stack of books to read and TV shows to catch up on.

I don't have enough free time to have a lot ROM hacking projects. Heck, I don't have enough time for the ones I do have. (Much to the chagrin of the SMBS fans.)
