Mega Man 7 (Mega Man Legacy Collection 2)

[RealRelativeEase]

Has it ever been ruled out entirely that Mega Man 7 in Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 is ROM-based? I've examined a Switch dump of the compilation and I've found two files that piqued my curiosity. There are two files named rm07_common.lzs, located in Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 [0100842008EC4000][v0][BASE]\Program #0\1\menu\JP\rm07 and Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 [0100842008EC4000][v0][BASE]\Program #0\1\menu\US\rm07. Both files have a file size of about 2.28MB, so they should be large enough to contain the ROM for their respective region, since the files have different checksums. There aren't any equivalent files for the other games in the collection either.

Unfortunately, I haven't been able to do anything with those files yet. So far, I've been unable to unpack them and Google wasn't any help on what to do with .lzs files, does anyone have an idea?

I unpacked the Steam version of MMLC2 using the tools and instruction on this Reddit post:

Interestingly, those same files on the Steam version are around 294KB, much smaller than the Steam version. Examining the files using a hex editor, my guess is this is some kind of container format with filenames for images and textures.

I also saw that there is a separate rm07 folder with what looks like resources for the actual game, split out into many different folders and files. Unfortunately this doesn't give me much hope that the actual SNES version is hidden in here.

Thank you for your insight! I've been able to extract the files using this tool, but as you said, it looks like there's only texture files, but no ROM.
