I really don't recommend people to buy the 3DS version in full price, wait for a drastic price cut or a bargain. And if you own a Vita, buy the god damn Vita version and ignore the 3DS one.

Assuming one is the maximum variable and anything lower would have to be a decimal, I can agree with that.

I still haven't been able to get my 3DS to update. This is driving me mad. Maybe I will, daresay, run it off my phone's 3G connection. It'll use up a good chunk of my plan, but it'll probably be worth it.

You're struggling to update? That's strange. If you in the meantime get able to update, can I get your Friend Code? :P

How could you expect more when the resolution of the console itself is 400 × 240?

Like I said, I could be wrong, however for some reason I thought they could have maybe been a slight bit better, it looks like DS graphics, but that's just me :confus:

Still, Nintendo is the company that makes more justice in the graphics of their games for the consoles.

It can't really get any better, because the 3DS literally runs in 240p like Hunchman said. Therefore your criticism of its graphics was ironically spot-on.

You know what? I don't even care whether the 3DS Version is good or not, because a HD Trilogy of RaTcHeT & ClAnK is coming out on Thursday!!! :waaahhh:
Mind = Blown.

Ok, end of offtopicness.

I found it amusing how in Origins' 3DS trailer they're claiming that "we're going back to 2D, Rayman's roots - what made him Rayman," when the only thing about it that resembles his roots is the fact that it's 2D.

I would rather argue it comes closer to 0.8 dick.
That other remark you just made is pretty accurate too. I guess people will just have to learn that if you buy a Rayman game, you should buy it for the original console, or else you're not going to have a fun time. But whatever you do: do not buy the Nintendo version.

It's funny cause it's true. Every Nintendo version of a Rayman game (aside from Rayman 3D and excusably Rayman Advance) has been horrible in comparison to the others.

Yeah, I fail to see how it could look better than 240p in these circumstances.

Trolo.

It would have been just fine if they pulled a Rayman Advance on us (zooming the game in slightly but naturally), or better yet, used the zoom feature from the Vita version; the 3DS needs it FAR more than the Vita does.

I think the graphics look fine, despite how easily you lose yourself on such a tiny screen, but yeah it's only 240p, so it was to be expected. The rest isn't so great either.

I'm assuming you mean Nintendo port/remake.
If you mean in general, then what about Rayman 3 and Arena on the Gamecube? And also R3 and RRR on GBA?

I do wonder what "3DS Exclusive Content" is in the port. Probably just the uninteractable touch screen map and nothing else.

I'll have to read the later reviews of the port.

They could at least have solved the framerate problem and the musical glitches and general sound quality.

Sorry, a zoom feature needed to be added anyways, being totally zoomed out made it look odd.

I did mean port, sorry about that.
