Resident Evil 4 (GC) - JP Trailer (Game Rip) (4K60 Upscale)
This is the 4K60 (not AI) upscale of the 640x480 .sfd interlaced Japanese trailer for Resident Evil 4 for GameCube that was included in the Gekkan Nintendo Tentou Demo 2004-2005 Nenmatsunenshi-gou GameCube demo disc.
This was ripped from the disc itself alongside all the other .sfd trailers in a singular .tgc file. I used a cmd function to change the tgc file into a .gcm file, and then used GCIT to open said .gcm file to extract all the .sfd files from it.
As with any .sfd file, I converted the file into an audio-less .mkv (optional, I just prefer it over .mp4) file with Handbrake, and using the SFD to MPG Converter, I was able to get the audio as an .mp3 (all seem to be 192kbps) and .wav file. This time I'm opting for the .mp3 file as I guess it's the most "true" file (.wav is lossless but much bigger and I'm curious if it's even factually better?).
Anyway I merged the two with Avidemux, deinterlaced it with Yadif, and changed the res to 640x528 (which is the proper res/aspect ratio according to the Dolphin emulator), then added 32px black bars on the left and right side as 704x528 (so a proper 4:3 aspect ratio), then finally upscaled it to 2880x2160. And here's the result!
Here's both the original raw .sfd file (in a ZIP file), as well as a ready to play .mkv version that's as close of a 1:1 conversion as possible:
