Definitive, sounds cool, what's that about?

This is what I was referring to. I'd go with either this or the archive.org iso like Magelin or Plum suggested.

eBay上有一个家伙,他有很多罕见的东亚版本的游戏,包括RaymanM中文。我不认为很多人会以这样的价格购买他的游戏,所以这更像是一个可以浏览的数字博物馆。
There are some cheaper games in Chinese website.

No way I saw that game on eBay for 2K! Is there a way to import Chinese goods to Canada?

Yeah, I imagine that guy's business model is to buy them on the cheap on Chinese websites, bundle them to save on shipping and sell them for 10 times the price (or more). Even if he doesn't sell a lot of them, the sale of one game probably covers the purchase of many, many others.

Hey all, I'm posting in this thread because I recently got into this neat thing called Retroachievements, which basically is this website that adds achievements to old retro games, and various emulators can be connected to it.
Anyway, the reason why I'm posting about it here is nobody has made a claim for Rayman Arena on PS2 or Gamecube yet, meaning there's nobody attempting to add an achievement set to either version as of this time despite the fairly high amount of requests (at least on the PS2 version, as seen here on this link https://retroachievements.org/game/19232), and I figured somebody in this community might be interested in making it a reality.
Now, I have to say that I don't know anything about the process of making or even thinking up an achievement set, hence why I got the idea to just make a reply about it on here, because I want to have a reason to play this game yet again and I'm sure I'm not alone in that.
on a related note, Rayman Rush does have an achievement set, I presume because PS1 support has been around way longer than PS2 and Gamecube support.
Lastly, since I think I've been rambling about this enough, I should say I did not read through too much of this thread so I apologize if someone else already brought up this topic. Thanks for reading.

Hi everyone, I'm back with some nice news! Looking into my box of the mediocre Rayman Rushed, I found out that the collector edition of the Yamakasi movie contained a third special disc filled with bonus Rayman content! :D
And notably, it features an exclusive animation of Rayman and Globox in their M/Arena design & personality, which has seemingly never been shared before since 2001!
:shock:



This also includes a French trailer for Rayman M!



Here's what can be found in the CD:
-An executable launching a menu to access the contents.
-An early demo of Rayman 2 The Great Escape (but I don't know yet if it's the same as those we've already experienced :?: ).
-Three video files (in glorious 480p resolution :hehe: ) including the ones I already shared above plus the 1999 Ubisoft logo (which I bundled with the Rayman M trailer).
-Two 800x600 Rayman M wallpapers with the logo and focused on a character: one for Rayman, and one for... well, everyone's favoritest character of course!... T i l y. :lol: :hap:
-A Rayman M screensaver.
-A Rayman M theme, with the aforementioned Rayman background, 5 cursors, 6 sounds and an icon library.


All of the contents have been archived here!

I opened Rayman Arena on PC just to test something. I then instantly noticed something I hadn't realised before. When you select Globox, he hums the same jingle heard in Super Mario Bros. 2 where you either lose a life or lose at the slots. Whether or not it's intentional, it's definitely the same melody.

I have no way to actually play it on here, so all I can do is attach the Globox selection sound, and the SMB2 sounds from NES and SNES.

I mean, it's a pretty generic melody. I often whistle it when I'm doing an impression of Homer Simpson nonchalantly walking away from a problem he caused :oops2:
