Samba de Amigo is a rhythm game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega. There are versions for arcade machines, Dreamcast and Wii consoles.

Samba de Amigo: Ver. 2000 was released for the Dreamcast only in Japan, including 20 new songs and new playing modes.

Here you'll find information and tools to help you mod "Samba de Amigo: Ver. 2000" for the Dreamcast, such as adding English translations and custom songs. This can put your old maracas to good use again! :)

• Description of all files in the Samba de Amigo ver. 2000 GDI image (including Japanese to English translations).
• Description of the .AMG ("Amigo") file format.
• amg_explorer.py, a console script to dump, analyse & convert Amigo files. It also allows you to import Wii songs into a Dreamcast GDI image, and (in the future) might help you translate the game from Japanese to English.
• Kaitai Struct files (.ksy) describing the Amigo .AMG file format for Samba de Amigo ver. 2000 (Dreamcast) and for the Wii. I also provided the "compiled" parsers in Python (currently only for reading).

• Create GUI Python script to simplify GDI modding:
  • Include gditools Python library to manipulate GDI images.
  • Include / port other libraries to manipulate sound & image files.
  • Create option to enable "downloaded" songs (saving time & VMU space).
  • Create option to change save file name (so you can have a save for each pack of songs).
  • Create an Amigo file viewer / editor (amigo_explorer.py is more than halfway there).
  • Enable (semi-)automatic importing / conversion of songs from:
    • Wii version (amigo_explorer.py already does this)
    • Shakatto Tambourine (Naomi)
    • MiniMoni. Shakatto Tambourine! Dapyon! (PS)
    • StepMania, etc.
