+ I checked and it turns out Rayman and Rayman 2 for GBC can be had for €13 each posted
+ I might pick them up next week since that's not bad for geniune
+ Then there's Rayman DS for €8
+ That means I own every main series and handheld Rayman if I get them
- I don't own any Rabbids games but personally the actual Rayman games are a lot better imo

EDIT: Actually to be specific I would need the Wii U copy of Legends, Xbox 360 copy of Legends and 3DS copy of Origins to fully complete it :P

+ Nice work Fifo.
- I know how it is at times and sometimes I look at it negatively too because I feel so sick all the time with reflux and hardly ever go anywhere
+ I try keep myself busy at all times and try to stay positive. Thinking negatively only makes you feel 10 times worse.

+ Yeah, as long as I remain positive there's not really anything for me to fear :proud:
- My first two videos of R1 GBC have me flopping. I'm terrible at this game :lol:

+ After playing through a few worlds I can say the wiki is definitely right in that much of the OST is based off Rayman 2, and that there are a lot of Rayman characters missing from that game, like Betilla and the Magician. Still a pretty decent game though :)

+/- Jonster, by any chance are you getting a lot of frameskip/lag on VBA-M?
- I'm getting a lot but if I enable autoframeskip in the ini and change the renderer to OpenGL it works, except it's really blurry then even with Bilinear filtering off.

- None so far the only thing I’m getting so far is errors when I reload save states more than once.
+ I need to continue testing this.

+ No worries, it's probably just a Nvidia thing. I notice this stuff and want a smooth 60fps ;)
+ I think it's just something similar to vsync where it loses sync and starts dropping frames
+ It could even just be my monitor, I'll figure something out :P

+ I just realised you're playing the first Rayman on Game Boy and I'm playing the second :lol:
+/- The 8 bit overworld music is really catchy on the second one imo, but it isn't on Raytunes.
+ Maybe the music is all the same or something since it's not there.
+ I still think it's so cool how 8 bit music can still be so good :P

+ Remind me of Pokemon for some reason :proud:
+ Agree with the 8-bit music part! :D
+ Most of the music on the first Rayman seem to be taken from the second game. Maybe the second game reuses those same tracks, but there are probably more on the second game.

+ The music I'm talking about seems to be an 8 bit version of that song that plays in Rayman 2 when Globox is doing the raindance.

EDIT: The Canopy actually
