This catalogue lists all 8 NitroFS files in the studied Japanese V1 image. File IDs and paths come from the ROM file-name table; offsets and stored lengths come from its file-allocation table. Offsets are absolute positions in the stored ROM image, not loaded ARM addresses or decoded-file offsets. [1]
It contains 0 standalone font files, 2 compressed manual archives and 0 ASH sample files. The format column names the decoder that has been checked, where one is available. The contents of ASH payloads have not yet been verified. [1][2]

Using this catalogue
Extract the stored range first, then follow the indicated decoder. For a BLZ member, validate the expanded NARC and its member table; for ZFTR, decode LZ11 before parsing NFTR. Some main UI assets are embedded in ARM9 and therefore are absent from every NitroFS table. The embedded assets guide covers those separately. [1][2]
