Game Boy Sound
From Just Solve the File Format Problem

Description
Game Boy Sound (GBS) is an emulated audio file format, similar to SID or NES Sound Format. The files consist of code and data relevant to audio production which has been ripped from a Game Boy or Game Boy Colour ROM image, combined with a header. It is the succesor of the earlier GBR format which had a smaller header.
