- Description
- BFSTM (Binary caFe STream) is an audio file format developed by Nintendo for streaming audio data in games on platforms such as the Wii U and Nintendo 3DS. It stores compressed or PCM audio streams used for music and sound effects that are played back in real time rather than loaded entirely into memory. The format is part of Nintendo's internal sound engine toolset used across several game titles.
- An MP3 file is an audio file saved in a compressed audio format developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) that uses "Layer 3" audio compression. It is commonly used to store music and audiobooks with near-CD quality sound (stereo, 16-bit) and roughly 1/10 the size of a .WAV or .AIF file.
