About BFSTM Files

.bfstm Icon

A .bfstm file is an audio format used primarily by Nintendo 3DS and Wii U video games. It stores audio data, including music, sound effects, and dialogue, in the Binary Format Stream (BFSTM), which is a compressed format optimized for playback on Nintendo consoles and handheld devices.

While most gamers will never encounter .bfstm files, game modders may find them when extracting audio from Nintendo games, managing game soundtracks, or working with emulation and game modding projects. FileHelper.com allows you to open and listen to your .bfstm files by dragging them to this page.
