nuContPakN64ToJis

Format
void nuContPakN64ToJis(u8* src, u8* dest, u32 len)

Arguments
  • src is the pointer to conversion source character string
  • dest is the pointer to conversion destination character string
  • len is the conversion source character string length
Returned Value
none

What This Function Does
It converts N64 font code into JIS code. The N64 font code character string pointed to by src is converted into JIS code and stored in the location pointed to by dest. The len argument specifies the length of the character string pointed to by src. Katakana characters with voiced and semi-voiced consonant markers are 1 byte in N64 font code but must be converted into 2 bytes in JIS code (katakana + marker), so the character length of the string pointed to by dest is longer than the character string pointed to by src.
