I'm not familiar with NDS, but I can say the graphics don't seem to be encrypted, at least the iconFace.dat. Using Tile Molester, I was able to get some face icons:

To open the .dat files, you'll need to use a hex editor, and this is how the file (iconFace.dat) is structured:

0x0     - 0x4            - Unknown (I'm not sure what this value means)
0x4     - 0x804        - Offset Table
0x804 - 0x808        - iconFace.dat Size
0x808 - 0x38E8      - Image and Palette Data

Inside the offset table, they'll come in pair, the first is the offset for the image data and the second is the offset for the palette data. I don't know how the dimensions are calculated, but I have a suspicion that the first 4 bytes are related to this.

Now you need to find a tool that uses this pattern for graphics, or you can extract manually using Tile Molester.
