Difference between 5-Pack and Super Yellow Lums

Post by Rayman9930 »

What do you think the difference of a 5-Pack and a Super Yellow Lum is :?: Here is a definition of them both.


A 5-Pack Yellow Lum:
The 5-Pack Yellow Lum is 5 single yellow lums put together. They are found in the Sega Dreamcast, Playstation, Nintendo DS, PC, and Nintendo 64 versions(ports) of Rayman 2. In Rayman Revolution for the Playstation 2, you have to find all the 1000 yellow lums separately. Why they are not in this port is unknown. Their value is 5. They are 5x more powerful then a yellow lum, but 2x weaker than a Super Yellow Lum. They can be and are recognized by their big faces. You know big eyes and smile. They are the only known lum with a full face. In Prima's Official Strategy Guide for Rayman 2, they named this lum a "Five-Pack Yellow Lum". Raywiki tends to go by "5-Pack Yellow Lum." :?: :?: :?:


A Super Yellow Lum:
Super Yellow Lums are found in the Gameboy Color version of [[Rayman 2]], no other version of Rayman 2. They are 10 [[Yellow Lum]]s packed together. They are 10x more powerful than a yellow lum and 2x more powerful than a [[5-Pack Yellow Lum]]. '''They are not a 5-pack Yellow Lum.''' They are a little bigger than a regular Yellow Lum. In the GBC Manuel for Rayman 2, it states that it is a super Yellow Lum. :!: :?: :!:


:pardon: :pardon3:


A lot of people think that a 5-Pack Yellow Lum is a Super Yellow Lum! This is not to cause confusion, but a lot of Rayman Fans have been referring to that for years. When I bought Rayman 2 for the Gameboy Color, I was even shocked that a Super Yellow Lum was the one descibed above. :oops: You Rayman Fans may have not been aware that a Super Yellow Lum does exist :!: :o A lot of people are really mad on Raywiki for me pointing this out. :grrrrrr: :grrr: They think I'm a :rigolo2: :rigolo:, and want to terminate me from there :destroy: I told them I'm sorry, but havoc still continues to occur. So what do you think the difference is between the two? Leave me your comments and opinions. But nothing negative about me.
Things aren't always what they seem to be. If I was a trouble maker, I wouldn't be bringing this up, now would I?

What's confusing me a little about this topic is the fact that the manual for both Revolution and Rayman 2: The Great Escape (PC and N64 versions I have here) actually state the 5 lum packs as being "Super Yellow Lums."

Unless there's something I'm missing.

I agree with Phoenixan. It also says they're Super Happy Yellow Lums in my PS1 manual.

We've already been through this on the wiki, why make a topic about it?

If 5 pack yellow lums have smiley faces (i saw them in the psx version) then how do super yellow lums look like?

I have already answered your question here, Rayman123. Game manuals tend to contain much more relevant information than semi-official guides no one has ever heard of, and we'll stick to it.

Well, it is a Prima's Guide, not an OFFICIAL guide. Think of it as a guy being hired at another company to write a guide. :\ I mean, sure, the guy screwed up something. It's not the word/law of God or whatever.

Then someone needs to shutdown this forum or else it will continue to get comments. Anyone, know anybody?
