I found the Japanese Saturn version of Rayman 1.

http://www.underground-gamer.com/details.php?id=38148

You will need to be a member at Underground Gamer if you want to download it, but it’s there. Foultzboyz (who hasn’t been online in ages by the way) said that the blue Eat at Joe’s background is yellow in this version or has a yellow mist or something like that. There are probably a bunch of minor changes like that.

Actually it exists. *Tries to remember where she saved the Japanese cover pic*
I saw Japanese cover picture too. It does exist. Japanese wikipedia should list the game.

Currently, the only Japanese version of a game I own, is Rayman 2 for the Dreamcast.

Well, maybe my Ratchet and Clank Quest for Booty counts too, I have to check, I had it imported as well for the PS3.

Can you make Rayman 2 Dreamcast Japanese ISO? Please, we need someone to RIP the game.

I'm not certain I even can, due to the disc format Dreamcast games are in... GD-ROM, if memory serves.

Well, as long as you have something to connect Dreamcast with Computer, I think you should be able to RIP the game.

I didn't know you could do that, but is it difficult once you have a broadband adapter?

The broadband adapter makes it a bit quicker iirc, while the coders' cable takes hours and hours and hours.

I actually hope he can still do it. He can just leave his pc and dreamcast on for many hours. Thats how I uploaded Rayman Revolution Japanese. By leaving computer all night to upload.

Coders' cable? Certainly things I am finding out I never knew you could do with the Dreamcast... example, I knew you could emulate games, such as NES and Commodore 64 games on it. Ah, such an awesome console in my opinion. :mrgreen:

I wish i own it. I want to buy it, but I don't know which model is region free. I know some models are region free and that some are region locked.

I would like to buy it but I still have no money and I am not allowed to receive it anyway because of our customs -.- I still can't forget what happened to me when I bought a device from China.

Does Germany have like a strict policy on importing games from Japan or something? My bf imports games from there all the time though the only time he's had to pay customs was when he bought 3 Sonic the Hedgehog pocket watches; even with that he got them cheaper then they normally go for...

On games not sure, but devices. I am just afraid of them, that shit won't happen any again.

Customs suck. Because of them I cannot recive anything from UK. And I had trouble getting refunds. There is no problem with countries like Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, Germany, Netherlands, Italy, France

Oh, and thats the person who sold me Rayman Revolution. It arrived to me with no problem

My Dreamcast isn't modded, I bought it here in America and could load the Japanese version of Rayman 2 after I use a burnt boot disc that allows you to run other region games and... 'backups'.

There are some Dreamcast models that are made region free by sega that could play imports direcrly opened from box.
