I have a copy, but currently it's not functioning. Hmm...I have this sudden urge to open it up and see what's wrong. Maybe in the future. :)

They're flash memory so unless it's corrupted it should be just the pins that need a cleaning. I got a US copy of the game for like 7 euro. I like the US label better that's why :)

Hm, I wonder if I could just use a brush to clean it...

I think a cotton bud / qtip like you clean your ears with and some alcohol or hand sanitiser on it.

Yup, I think that works too! I still have to test it in other places. 8)

Also the screen of the Advance version is a little more zoomed in, which makes it harder to see the platforms, it quite gave me troubles when I played the Wii U port of Rayman Advance.

Oh yeah that's right. The GBA is only 240x160 VS the 320x240 Rayman would run at on other platforms. I never even thought of that. So effectively 80 pixels taken away both horizontally and vertically.

Rayman 1 - Mr. Stone's Peaks - I really hated flying through that stage even though the power was cool.
Rayman 2 - Tomb of the Ancients - It has such a dark atmosphere and the music was creepy to me as a kid, though it's a good level.
Rayman 3 - Hoodlum Headquarters - Pretty good level, but it's just SO hard for me to combo really well here.
Rayman Origins - [blank]
Rayman Legends - [blank]
I haven't played the other two mainstreams, so I'll update later.
If I based Rayman 3 on scoring, the Tower of the Leptys is my most hated level. I can't seem to pull off that really long combo I'm envisioning where I knock all the hoodlums in the first room before the timer runs out. Or I get hit. Or the Hoodstormer flies away. Or the timer ends before I get all the gems on the stair well next to the area. Sigh....this is going to take a LONG time for me to master.

Rayman 3 - Desert of the Knaaren. These days I can actually tolerate the Headquarters better than the Desert.

Oh yeah that literally took me ages :lol:

Renewing the lockjaw every few seconds. I will play that one again eventually but for now I really need to play SBTC and BOM along with a few others.

First I need sleep though.

SBTC is also a level that can be challenging for me, only phase3 though, and only the snowboarding portion.

Phase 2 for me mainly because that's where all the huge combos are.

Cool because that's the main level I need to work on then BOM. There's still HH and TOTL but I honestly just haven't tried lately. I will today though :D
