VGSC (Video Game Sound Converter) is a program that basically has the ability to convert a range of different video game audio formats into .wav files. It can do multiple files at once, and it can be a mixture of formats.
The program uses a library called vgmstream, which does that actual converting. The range of file formats is quite large, and will hopefully include what people here wish to convert. I should point out that my program is only a wrapper and I cannot add to or modify the conversion code, so please don't ask me to.
How to use
There are two ways to use this. The first and most straightforward way is to just open VGSC.exe, you'll see this:

A file opening dialog will come up. Navigate to and select the files you want to convert. Now a folder selection dialog will appear; use that to select the folder you want the converted files to be saved in (note: the folder must exist beforehand). You'll see a bunch of text come up, similar to this:

This is just information about the files it's converting. You'll notice that files aren't compatible if you see "failed opening".
The other way you can run it is just through the command-line, either using the command prompt or writing a .bat file. This is the usage:
I'm planning to add extra optional arguments in the future that affect how the files are converted. For now however, this is probably not the option most people will use.
Compatibility
Here is a list of the currently supported files according to the vgmstream readme (you can find the readme itself in the vgmstream subfolder of the application). I can't guarantee that all or most of these will work, I've only tested a few of them. However I believe that as long as you got the file from the console associated with its extension below (e.g. a .ss2 file from a PSX game), it should probably give you some results.
Download
You can download the latest version, v2.1, here.The program is only available for Windows.
The source code is available up on Github; keep in mind this is the code for the VGSC wrapper and not the vgmstream converter.
