The fact that the PAL music is messed up is crazy. UbiSoft seems to be notorious for corrupting music. Already with the N64 port of Donald Duck Goin Quackers (which is a port of the PC version that runs on the same engine as Rayman 2) they managed to corrupt the midi music completely, much to the composer's chagrin. There is an article about the corrupted music on the TCRF page of the game. It's really crazy.

When it comes to 3ds version of rayman 2, you've got to play it on a new 3ds, since you can overclock it, and make it work in a stable 60fps at all times, and it makes it kinda decent version. Avoid the 3ds version on older 3ds

You can also make Rayman DS run better on a jailbroken DSi if you set the game to run at the higher CPU clocks and RAM that version of the DS has. It's still not ideal but I thought it was worth mentioning.

I loved Rayman DS. It was one of the first games I bought with my own money. I grew up with Rayman 2 on the dreamcast but I damaged the disc when I was really young and I didn't know anything about emulation at the time. So this was finally a way for me to play Rayman 2 again after a few years of missing the game after I lost the dreamcast copy

You know something I always found to be somewhat interesting about Rayman Advance and DS is that they use the (at the time) current looks for Rayman for the covers. It always facinated me since the different art directions for the series clash so hard. Anyways this video was really fascinating. I hope you cover the DSi version of Rayman 1 and Rayman 3D soon. I actually played Rayman 1 DSi back in 2019 and played Rayman 3D during senior year of high school.

I played the 3DS version and you know what? My only complaint was the audio balancing. It was repulsive! For whatever insane reason, they decided to make EVERYTHING near silent. And then they turned the music so high you can't hear any of the already silent sounds! But there's something peculiar: I looked at a playthrough of the 3DS version, and the audio is fine. So I must ask, is it an anti-piracy measure? ..........i didn't pirate it trust

Great video as always! I remember borrowing a friend's copy of Rayman Advance when I was a kid after seeing the PS1 game, I loved the look and sound of the game but I couldn't deal with the screen crunch, still can't! Really interesting port though and I agree some of the music is really charming, "Deep Forest" still sounds really cool to me. I bought Rayman DS knowing about Rayman 2 on N64 (again through a friend) and thought it was cool to have a portable version but man the controls are something! Still cool at the time! Love hearing your thoughts man, keep it up!

I played a lot of Rayman DS as a kid and, yeah, the Tomb of the Ancients is pretty prone to crashing towards the beginning. From my experience, it usually had something to do with the first spider that jumps down. Stopping to fight it usually ended with the game crashing and sometimes the spider just straight up disappears or turns invisible after landing. A tad glitchy, that one. It may have nothing to do with that first spider, but the game usually crashed anytime I tried to mess with it anyway. Rayman DS is serviceable at best, but the input lag with the d-pad and the lag in general bring it down pretty hard imo

8:30 That absolutely was a thing. My brother and I each had a copy where it crashed on Tomb of the Ancients right where the spider jumps down. There's also a chance the spider can no-clip into the ground and never show back up. That being said, despite all the glitches, Rayman DS at the time was pretty impressive to see on a handheld device. I still find myself playing just about any Rayman 2 port on any console.

Rayman Advance is honestly a remarkable port considering the hardware and being a launch title. The visuals are shockingly faithful, even the background parallax was intact. You can spot a lot of the quirks inherited from the DOS version too, including the lack of an end level jingle, the tings making a popping noise, and the second mosquito boss not having the unique red palette. According to a comment from a Digital Eclipse developer, the occasional pixelated sprites were the result of Ubisoft imposing an 8MB cartridge limit late in development, so they had to scale some of them down to reduce the file size. This would have been avoided with a larger capacity cart, earlier builds reportedly had intact sprites. I can't give the same praise to Rayman DS. It's a direct port of the N64 version, but with an even worse framerate, terrible input lag, and tons of glitches. You're not along with the game freezing, and that wasn't the only place it happened for me. I'd often get soft locked in a scripted cutscene in the Canopy level when Rayman is trying to hop onto platforms. Collision detection is also very broken, it's easy to clip through walls and floors. Worst version of the game by far. The 3DS version of Rayman 2 is better than the DS version. But it's still a lot worse than the Dreamcast. Very unstable framerate, lots of visual cuts and bugs, sound glitches, and the secret 1000th lum is bugged. The trampoline platform you're supposed to use to collect it doesn't function. There's a way to glitch yourself high enough to collect it, but attempting to exit the area softlocks the game. Given how butchered the 3DS port of Rayman 2 was, I shudder to imagine them trying to port Rayman 3 to it. They've also sort of stopped the Rayman porting frenzy these days too. The series is kind of dead again.

"It's as if the port was designed for experts who know where everything is in ADVANCE...OH I GET IT!" Funnily enough, Rayman Advance was the third version of R1 that I played, but the first one I finished. When bosses drop below half health, they retain half damage if Rayman dies. That was a big helper in me finishing it in my teen years, combined with a nerfed top speed being the only way I finished the sliding section in Pencil Pentathlon as a kid. People are eager to rag on it, but the combination of unique music, using the DOS version as a base (the ting sounds are an indicator), the difficulty was made the kindest of nearly every official port - user friendly even. Then? Rayman DS ended up being my first exposure to the "original" R2, as I first owned the PSone version, but had only played the PC version at our primary school for two hours beforehand. So my first real experience playing the original R2 was this port. I'm sure my copy came with a stand-alone thumb stylus circle thing, packaged with my DSlite... and until I got to Whale Bay, I ended up 50/50 splitting between dpad and touch. As for it crashing? Can't say I've had it happen, but it was the first version I was able to glitch out of the jail in... would be good if Rayman didn't slide off barrels on the water though. Hilariously, all screenshots on box are prototypes and mock-ups, using the icon for Walk of Life and Power being the dpad design, and the stylus icon being the new (at the time) Ubisoft logo... have yet to see any official on hardware footage of it beyond the super imposed shots on DS models from trailers. Oh, and there's a dialogue error when Rayman saves Ly. "He's the spirit of the world. HIS POWER ARE IMMENSE!" While I didn't end up hanging on to my original copy of Rayman DS, I absolutely love Advance, and temporarily had two copies - standalone and through the anniversary cart. Great vid Framerater, every time someone takes an objective look at these ports rather than a rage-fueled clickbait, it feels like people get a better glimpse of the shine on these rougher gems.

I've never played Rayman DS, but I've played the 3DS port and hated it towards the end. The flying missile in the last level seemed to have a mind of its own, which made that part 10x harder and more frustrating than in the original versions. And the other much bigger problem was the 1000th lum room in the Tomb of the Ancients: not only did the bouncing spider webs not bounce like they were supposed to, forcing me to damage boost my way up in the skull's eyes, but finishing the level through that exit crashed the game every single time, which means that the 3DS version is impossible to 100% as far as I'm aware.

Your not the only one. When I played the DS version (even it's not the version I grew up with. It was the N64 version) years ago. During my first playthrough of Tomb of the Ancients. The game would freeze on me three to four times. I don't know what keeps triggering it.. All I remember is every time I start the level. The spider at the beginning of the stage keeps clipping through the floor every time it drops down. And if you walk a few inches. The game will automatically freeze, causing me to start over again.

I have owned both of these ports at one point. Rayman Advance was my introduction to Rayman. Rayman 1 honestly is just too difficult for me to enjoy all that much, but it does have charm. As for the GBA port, it is a little hard for me to play these days, considering the screen crunch. While I have nostalgia for it, that couldn't save Advance for me. As for Rayman DS, that was my introduction to Rayman 2 not on PS1. I prefer the PS1 version of Rayman 2 for various reasons, but I will say the DS version was serviceable...at the time. Nowadays it's hard to play after playing better versions of the game. I mean I wasn't a big fan of the non-PS1 versions of the game anyway, but still, the DS version isn't that good.

Oh Rayman DS, you horrible mess you. I think it might’ve been the first Rayman game I ever played (either that or Raving Rabbids 1). Even when I was kid, the game just felt… wrong. I remember just playing the game, straining my thumb on the D-Pad (no way i was using the stylus to play) and just thinking it wasn’t comfortable, or really that fun. I mean I still played it and beat it but I just remember everything about the experience being a relatively unpleasant one for reasons I can’t describe. It was just such a weird, off putting, aggressively French game that my young mind couldn’t comprehend. When I found out it was a port I just assumed ‘well, guess the game just sucks’ and didn’t think twice about it. Years later I played the PS1 port (which still isn’t amazing mind you) and then I realised I’d been dealt a shit hand and played probably the worst version of the game outside of IOS probably. Good times. And no I don’t remember it ever freezing on me. Maybe they fixed it with a revision or it wasn’t in the PAL copy I played. Either way that didn’t happen I don’t think

A story I have with Rayman DS was in my copy since IDK if it's all copies in The Sanctuary of Rock and Lava, the part where you're on the flying leaf platforms, like with the guardian shown in 7:14 you'd just slip off but it's like the devs knew this happened so you could mash R to reset your possition on it because there's no way to actually stay on long enough for the section otherwise. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJvLZnqhqaaSa8U I actually gave up with this version of the game thinking it was broken until I looked at this review which just ended a part on saying pressing R is a band aid on fixing the glitch which IIRC is also a solution for the guardian too.

The screen crunch on Advance is likely not due to GBA lack of power, but the GBA screen having a lower resolution than an old TV. So many SNES ports to GBA scaled down the screen, but the DKC ports' sprites and bgs were properly scaled down.

Those handheld rayman 2 ports are wreched. I couldn't believe how bad that DS port was when I played it. Not only was it horribly glitchy but the touch control settings wouldn't even save when you turned off the game.

Sorry if this is a duplicate comment (My other one isn't showing up), but you should research if there was going to be a Gizmondo port of Rayman. The rayman gamefaqs page has a Gizmondo page and it seems to be cancelled. This might not be a thing, but anyways, nice video.

I've never had an issue with the d-pad controls on DS. Probably cause I grew up with the PC version with keyboard controls.

Rayman Advance, 1 on DSIWare, and DS incredibly impressive, considering they’re ports of console games! While there’s issues with them, I still think that they’re acceptable, even more so for 1 on DSIWare. Much more so if you’re in that Rayman mood on the go.

That four second sequence isn't present in the original N64 soundtrack. This is also the case for Rayman DS as it was based on this version.

Rayman DS looks more to be based on the PS1 version with N64 music. Rayman 3D is based on the Dreamcast Version

Nothing about it resembles the PS1 version, it was a fairly straightforward port of the N64 version.

Wow, I love how much work was put into the GBA game! It's great when developers actually cared about good game porting. I remember first emulating Rayman 2 on N64 then saw it on DS and had to have it! Never got far in either though lol
