NITRO File Formats
For more details on this file format, please visit the Nitro Files page.
The Nitro file system is a set of basic files created by Nintendo that helped developers quickly and easily develop titles for the console. Because of the simplicity of these files and the way they're created, it is the easiest common format on the DS to rip.
Formats include, but are not limited to, the following:
NCLR → Palette (Nitro CoLoR)
NCGR → Graphical Tiles (Nitro Character Graphic Resource)
NBGR → Graphical Tiles (Nitro Basic Graphic Resource)
NSCR → Maps/Images (Nitro SCreen Resource)
NCER → Tile Arrangement Information (Nitro CEll Resource)
NANR → Animation Information (Nitro ANimation Resource)
NSBMD → 3D Model Data
NSBTX → Model Texture Data

Sound Database: where sound and music are stored. To access through Tinke, highlight the file containing the .SDat icon (A musical note) and click "View".
The only folders with accessible files are SWAR (for sound effects and individual sounds for music compositions) and STRM (depending on the game, contains fully assembled musical numbers, or cover songs broken into small segments of roughly 5-11secs each).
