Hmm.. I'll have to try it for myself since I do have the game and a GBA

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.

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.

Don’t remind me
Also that jump with the lockjaw

Oh yeah that literally took me ages
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.

That phase is now easy for me

I'll record my combos later

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
