An anonymous donor has recently released 68 new prototypes of Rayman 3 for the Game Boy Advance, with the earliest dating back to January 18, 2002, where it would be showcased at the France Committee. Additionally, the individual has released digital versions of documents revolving around the game's development, such as game design and even more seemingly relating to the console and PC ports of Rayman 2.

Damn, 68 protos? Did they like make a standalone prototype of the game each week or something, lol
Love me stuff like this, finding out how a game could've been and whatever hidden goodies are concealed inside the code, heh

Maybe try looking into them via a hex editor, to maybe find any unused assets and/or developer messages.

Rayman is still less obscure than Jazz Jackrabbit.
Yea or even Unreal these days. Nobody wanted to create more articles with me for Unreal "protos" and my main page on U2 with brief but precise descriptions got deleted because no subpages yet. Btw prototype should technically only be the first prototype a real prototype, I don't know why other pre-releases are suddenly being called prototypes these days. Completely misses the point what the word MEANS.

You might also be counted as pretty "obscure" yourself, lol.

I even remember digital poll in one of social media services by Clifford Bleszinski in Twitter to be even more precise.
LOL XD.
Rayman 2 prototype was also made in 2D.

I even saw screenshot of Michel Ancel he posted SNES port of Rayman 1 in his own Instagram profile.

Also I even guess that LEOTCK hates when I'm using such words 2.5D. But who knows maybe I'm wrong.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
