Homebrew is a term frequently applied to video games or other software produced by consumers to target proprietary hardware platforms not typically user-programmable or that use proprietary storage methods. This might include games developed with official development kits, such as Net Yaroze or Linux for PlayStation 2. Some more frequently used labels, such as freeware, are often applied as well. A popular type of homebrew game is the fangame. In Japan, these games are usually called "Dōjin soft".

Homebrew: Horrible games put on consoles/handhelds (usually by something that voids your warranty) so you can play the 3.4x10^5th remake of Tetris BUT ON THE WII!
