Hi. I extracted the files from a WiiWare game called Rage of the Gladiator. Nothing crazy of a game, but I enjoyed it as a kid.
Anyhow, when I extracted the data, I noticed the files were "compressed" (at least it seems so) in this .ZZ file format.
The files are named something like "Image.jpg.zz", removing the .zz doesn't help. And looking at it through HxD and Notepad++, it looks like some form of
compression has been applied (at least I think so). And one caught my attention, the one named "Facebook-Game-Info.txt.zz", opening it with Notepad++ reveals this:
So the rough idea of this message is probably a complaint of some sorts
I did some research and I found a tool called Zzip, it's from around 2000 and I tried it, but either it doesn't work or I can't get it to work.
I'm really interested in seeing that message uncompressed and intelligible, and be able to extract the other 75% or so of the game that's locked away.
Any ideas or suggestions on this topic are welcome!

Now, GBATemp omitted some of the NUL characters and what not, here's the file itself if you're interested in it: Facebook-Game-Info.txt.zz***(Transcript as is)***
