New SNES sound format?

[Agu-Fungus]

Why not? Anyone thought of making a new PSF (portable sound format) music format for SNES directly from the rom? That could solve problems like leaving out beta songs hidden inside the game, as well as undumplable SPCs (like Wario's Woods).

If it ever gets a format, I suggest the extensions .minispc and .spclib for it. Just a thought.

It has been thought god knows how many times before, yet, I don't see anything bieng done.

And I don't think they would reuse the spc extension.

I would say thats cool to get stuff like that not really a problem!

No. That would imply that the extension for an inidividual file would be SPC, which as we know is already taken.

That last one is about the only real use I'd see for it. I mean, for example...there are some unused tracks in Chrono Trigger, and someone dumped them just fine, so I don't know that that is a problem so much...I seem to remember some unused tracks from StarFox 2 being dumped as well, and I don't mean the ones contained in the beta version of the..beta. Way too many versions of that game floating about.
