Rayman 3

I still find it hard to see anyway on an SP since they just use frontlit screens, unless you were lucky enough to get one of the very limited back near the end that actually used backlights, or you can put one of them in by yourself.

The DS would surely be alright too, the screen on the DS Lite is fairly bright.

Ooh, in that case, whenever I get this game, I'll play it on my old blue DS since it still works. Now if only I can find some way to reliably charge it (the charging port malfunctioned so only charges in certain areas).

Replace the port
If it is dying, it could kill your system or in the worst case, ignite

Thanks I guess.

My DS still charges, but it only charges when I put the port in a certain way. Not even sure what caused it in the first place. I suppose I could always just get another DS/DS Lite.....

[StelzenBomber]

Replacing the port isnt easy so...get a DS lite orva wii u

[The Jonster]

I think a DS Lite would be easier for me to obtain at this time tbh.

But anyways, I didn't find R3gba too difficult, with the exception of the waterski and shoe levels (magma mayhem i think those were called).

[StelzenBomber]

I had a lot of troubles with it, and it was a misserable playthrough for me

[Steo]

As expected, the dpad on the GameCube really isn't very good, but at least I get to play it on the real cartridge meaning my save file will be saved onto it. I could use a DS to dump the save anyway if I intended to use an emulator.

[StelzenBomber]

Why would you torture yourself with the gc dpad?

Also, didnt the GC gba stuff have input lag

[Steo]

The original had frameskip and lag, but I use GBI and I boot it with Swiss. This actually goes the correct framerate, though it would still have input lag. Emulators are probably the same, but regardless, now that I've seen the difference in the lag, I'm just using the Game Boy or DS.

[StelzenBomber]

Yea DS or WII U as i said, probably the best way to play gba in general

Hope you have fun!
And, try to 100%

[The Jonster]

I have to emulate since I still don't have the game itself...

Although since I learned to connect Dolphin with a gba emulator, might try connecting the 2 games at some point!

[Steo]

I will definitely try to 100% it, and this GBA I have delivers the same experience as a DS since I put a screen into it with an actual backlight. I'm not liking how I already had a game over though.

Get used to it
This game is unforgiving

Its like if castlevania went compleate dick mode
And i think there are only like 20 1ups in the game?

[Steo]

I guess it's not too bad then, there's no scoring system and all it really does is make you restart the current level.

[StelzenBomber]

Just wait for void of bones
That level is honest to god one of the worst levels ive ever had to endure

[The Jonster]

Yeah that one is pretty long tbh for a level in he second world t h.

[StelzenBomber]

Its long
Has way too much insta kill
Barely any checkpoints
Hitboxes that are way off
Just the whole package

[Steo]

I did play this level last time as far as I can remember, but I decided to start a new game instead of continuing an old save I haven't played in ages. One thing I can say already is that they really love to hide the Lums.

[StelzenBomber]

Yea you could use a map...if there were any

Maybe soon

[Steo]

I guess I'll revisit the levels later then, I just hope I can find them all on that bone one on my first try. Thankfully I managed to get all 50 on the Ssssam level too.

[StelzenBomber]

Speaking of ssssam levels
God aweful
Hard to see and react
And being insta killed by any hit is SO MUCH FUN
