No ROM translation patches require reverse-engineering proprietary 3DS binary formats, decompressing assets, modifying assembly/text engines, and extensive manual human localization.
What it would actually take: Building a ROM patch requires decompiling the Nintendo 3DS executable (ARM assembly), reverse-engineering custom Square Enix archive and font formats, adjusting text box display routines to support Latin proportional fonts, and coordinating a multi-person translation of thousands of script lines. Tools like Ghidra, custom Python unpackers/repackers, and deep binary patching knowledge are mandatory.
