I don't know how hard it would be (I tried doing it for like an hour but i'm not a programmer i had no idea what i was doing i had no success), but like, there's a 3ds-zlib package, mGBA can do it yk

it would be kind of slow to load (in mgba it's slow) but saving storage would be pretty nice

To actually unpack files i need more than zlib. libarchive would be the way to go, however i fear this would make the code way too big and that for only a small storage space advantage and slower loading times. For the most part trimmed ROM files will work. That already saves some space.
