I assume you dumped it on a cart with the GSU-2-SP1 chip rather than the original FX chip that powered the first StarFox?

The GSU-2-SP1 chip for example could address more memory and some people have even overclocked them to 27mhz which bolsters playability to a big degree.
To put that in perspective the OG FX chip that powered StarFox ran at around 10mhz...

Yeah I'm pretty sure Starfox 2 was designed to run on the GSU-2 or "FX2" chip, and that it would be pretty much unplayable if you dumped it onto a FSU1/FX1 equipped cart.

People have dumped the Rom onto the "FX1" chip and had it running, it's not silky smooth 60fps... But that was never going to happen on a SNES pushing 100's of polygons. :P
