This code extracts BWAV files in BARS containers and saves them into respective folders (based on their names). You can run it against a single BARS file or multiple BARS files in a folder.
BARS files are usually used as sound containers in newer Nintendo Switch games (e.g. Animal Crossing: New Horizon). They can usually be found in the Sound/Resource folder in the game's extracted ROM.
The extracted BWAV files can then be opened or converted to other more common format elsewhere (vgmstream is recommended), they are essentially a new container for sound data encoded in one of the two ways, either plain 16-bit little endian PCM (usually shorter sound effects), or Nintendo's DSP 4-bit ADPCM (longer ones).
The code is written in C++, should be cross-platform (only tested it on Ubuntu).
User guide
