2023-03-29 16:58:02 +0000 UTCAs said, the Epyon Duel hack includes the English Translation by Aegon Genesis, apart than making the final boss playable on Story Mode. Tried a few rounds and seems compatible, didn't encounter any bugs. The translation is not really needed for this game, but this combined with the extra playable character and your FastROM + fixes hack makes it the definitive version of Gundam Wing Endless Duel. Could you please check if it's really compatible? Thanks!
