Extracted 106 files of 209.73 MB size.

this is not a drill; I have located the Super Beat Sports soundtrack!!! I tried a bunch of different tools but the ones that worked in the end were nstool to decrypt the game files, and then mediaextract to search and locate a bunch of oggs that were glued together in one big binary file.

I don't think there's a great way to automatically fix all the filenames unfortunately but using a hex editor I can see a list of internal song titles, so maybe I'll just match those up manually. oh yeah this is my first time using a hex editor! I opened the binary files in fhred so I could just sorta poke around and try to guess what I'm looking for, and I found the string /baseball_intro.mogg and took an educated guess that it might be some sort of audio file. Wheeeeeeee! Am hacker!!!
