VGM
- This article is about the sound format. For game music in general, see video game music.
VGM (Video Game Music) is a sound format (similar to SPC or GYM) for multiple video game platforms, such as Sega Master System, Game Gear, Genesis\\Mega Drive, Sega Mark III and possibly many others in the future. The normal file extension is .vgm, but files can also be Gzip compressed into .vgz files.
Techincally, .vgz files should be named .vgm.gz, but because some popular operating systems' file managers cannot handle file name suffixes that themselves contain a dot, .vgz is used in order to launch a VGM player (eg. Winamp with the proper plugin) and not WinZip.
