minor fixes
Only problem: it's not as widely supported among emulators. This may be slowly changing, though. You'll need to get (or make) a texture pack in addition to the ROM. Goes without saying the game logic won't be altered. Also, this doesn't actually change the data inside the ROM proper, making this enhancement emulator-specific.
Currently, 2D sprite replacements are not as popular, so much of what's available among replacement packs is quite bland in the same fashion as Final Fantasy 6's iOS "remake" or RPG Maker stuff, but they're meant to be proof-of-concept, no more. As of 2018, 2D sprite replacements have improved in quality with the release of several excellent 8-bit to 16-bit packs for NES.

* [[HDNes]]: an emulator that allows you to overlay custom sprites at 4X resolution over in-game NES sprites. These custom sprites are in true color without any of the palette restrictions inherent to the NES (alpha + 3 colors picked from around 50 possible colors). It can also do music replacement.
* [[Mesen]]: has support for HDNes HD packsand has even made improvements to it. Also includes [https://www.mesen.ca/docs/hdpacks.html#using-the-hd-pack-builder HD Pack Builder] that can be used to create new HD packs.
