FE3 is a LoROM, FastROM, 64Kb SRAM and 32Mbit game.

According to http://snesdev.romhack.de/, lowrom, fastrom games can be modified to work using:
http://snesdev.romhack.de/thg.htm

It says to use Equinox for example.

My question is, Equinox is a LoROM, SlowROM, 64Kb SRAM and 8Mbit game. Understandably the 8Mbit game shouldn't matter, but will the SlowROM part cause an issue?

Thanks!

SlowROM just means the MaskROM is only rated for 200ns access time. Since you'll be removing it anyway, that's not a problem at all. If the game you are putting in is FastROM, you must use 120ns or faster chips. So anything 120ns or less should work.

Yeah also the game is 24MBits it seems (if my dump is correct). You'll probably need 3 8MBit EPROMs to put in on it, any SHVC-xA3B or SHVC-xA3M board should do it.

Once its patched though.. it comes out to 32Mbit.. and 4 1Mbyte files.
