Ground the unused address lines.

Unused inputs should always be connected to something unless the datasheet specifies that an input is internally pulled up or down. And I haven't heard of a commodity flash memory with pullups or pulldowns on its address lines.

Look at the datasheet, if it can run in 8-bit mode, you don't need a multiplexer.

HOWEVER. The letter "L" indicates a 3V part. Do not use one in your (or anyone else's) SNES without adding additional protection parts, 3V ROMs will damage the console and/or be damaged by it.
