Mario Tennis Virtual Boy Ripping Project - teh_supar_hackr - 02-23-2020
I have ripped a little bit of Yoshi's sprite in the OG Mario Tennis on the Virtual Boy, but am wondering if anyone would like to help me get the rest of the characters up on the site as the game is'int even on there! The method I used was through pixel perfect screenshots through the only emulator I know of that works well enough, MESS.

i can safely say it's much wiser to snatch the graphics out from the ROM instead of doing individual screenshots, there's just so much of stuff to get – I actually cracked the compression format of Mario's Tennis back in 2018 and was able to check out the graphics in their full glory
but unfortunately lost the decompressor itself but I kept some notes, for what it's worth:

That's a shame, but at least you have the notes! Did the decompressor get lost from a hard drive failure? It's how I lost many projects I worked on. I've since back things up from what little I have, like USB drives, I have plenty of external drives, and online cloud storage, ect.
