- BRSTM (Binary Revolution Stream) is an audio file format developed by Nintendo for streaming sound data in Wii games. It stores compressed or uncompressed PCM/ADPCM audio used for background music and long sound effects. The format is commonly extracted and used by fans for game audio modding and playback in emulators.
- The XA file format, associated with Maxis, is used primarily for storing audio data in certain video games developed by Maxis, the video game company known for creating popular titles like SimCity and The Sims series. The XA format allows for efficient compression of audio data, enabling games to include a variety of sounds and music tracks without using an excessive amount of disk space. This format is specifically designed to be used within the game environment, facilitating seamless playback and integration of sound effects and music.
