ROM Hack Suggestion Seiken DenSetsu collection/Secret of mana translation?

[Zedris]

since the xci is available for seiken densetsu is there anyway to mod it to have it translated from the fan translations floating around in roms of the snes games? is it possible or has it been done already

I would assume it would be as simple as unpacking the xci and replacing the Japanese ROMs with the English ROMs. I'm surprised nobody has given it a shot yet. There has been some talk about a western release but I don't think it'll end up happening because translating Seiken Densetsu 3 into English would cost money.

For the time being your best option is to use a SNES and GB emulator on your Switch.

Square already translated Seiken Densetsu 3 just never released it due to software bugs so it was canceled

Weren't the bugs in the Japanese version because they cut into the code to fit all the dialog into 32Mb, and wasn't a translation going to push it much more over that limit? As it was, the original Secret of Mana was intended for the tossed SNES-CD, so they had to cut out content and whatnot for that game to get it onto cartridge.
