SpongeBob SquarePants: Ticket Boom [.ic1, .ic2, .ic5]] by Cartoonish Weeb at 10:20 PM EDT on August 8, 2020
Hi
So Brizzo, who is part of the MAME community, got a random Memory Board for an arcade machine off of eBay. and that board turned out to be SpongeBob SquarePants: Ticket Boom, a Ticket Redemption Game published by SEGA in 2007. I was able to talk to Brizzo through Discord, and he was kind enough to send me the audio which was extracted from the data. and from what i can tell, the Sound Effects & SpongeBob's voice lines play at the same Frequency for the most part, while the Music on the other hand is different. Brizzo also provided a link to a .zip file which contains the game itself. however, the game is in a format that I myself have never seen before (.ic1, .ic2, .ic5). He also mentioned to me that he and whoever was helping him extract the audio from the board, discovered that the audio samples were for a "Yamaha YMZ770C SPU". He also added that converting the audio to a .wav was just to "check the data format, and to get a clue about Hardware & Emulation". He also recalls "one of the guys who wrote the driver outline was able to pull the sound files out of the rom dumps and convert them to wav files, hence verifying the audio system used". Below is the games ic files and the audio rips that he provided to me. If anyone could be of assistance, that would be great!
