The gameloft mobile games

So like, I just downloaded a bunch of Rayman games that are supposed to be for mobile phones, but they're in .jar [java] format and my mobile ain't exactly the greatest. Besides, wanna try and take shots from them and study them in general for the Wiki, so is there any way these files can be emulated some how on a PC? I tried loads of junk but I could barely get anything to work.

Thanks Josh but I managed to get them to work now thanks to actually downloading a J2ME webkit. :3
Shall I lock, y/n?

I shouldn't lock it. It could become an interresting thread

Ha ha
None of these games were worth the bother, they all suck. =P But I still feel they should be documented in the Wiki anyway. Proof that it works below.

I got my sister to buy Rayman Kart on her old phone it had Rayman, Globox, Razorbeard, and a Rabbid that had a name but I forget what it was. There may have been more characters. One of the tracks was called Dream Forest I think. I cant remember much more.
From screenshots I've seen I think Rayman 3 on mobile looks cool. They're mobile games anyway, dont expect much.

Just finished up an article about Rayman Kart. To be fair, this one's the best of the Gameloft bunch.

Rayman Kart and Rabbids are both extremely good, R3 is meh nowadays but for a mobile game in its time it was great. Bowling and Golf are awful as all get out though.

Rayman Raving Rabbids on the mobiles looks like it's been heavily borrowing from Sonic Advance 1. It's funny how Rayman has somehow learned to roll like Sonic.
Anyway, if anyone's interested, here's how I emulated them:
Step 1: Find torrents, making sure that each game inside ends with .jar. You'll have to collect lots of different files because not all of them work
Step 2: Download
Java Wireless Toolkit, the first one.
Step 3: Now download
JADMaker, run it, and when the jars are downloaded [they're really small and shouldn't take long to download if you select only the Rayman ones out of a huge pack], drag them into this to make .jad files. A big mobile phone window should open with the name of the game, and you hit the right dot button on it to launch. Don't worry if some games don't fit, they're still playable.
???
PROFIT

Mobile RRR is basically Sonic Rush for the first two stages (barring the particularly original Pig level in the forest and Breakout-styled "bossfight" at the beach). It starts becoming a bit more like Rayman 1 during the lab stages, although with weird ideas thrown in (Rabbid Balloons, WTF)
Compare
this video to the first stage or two in RRRMobile, just about everthing has been copied from it.
I guess Gameloft was in a Sonic-y mood because in that month they also released Tropical Madness which was their take on 3D Sonic games.

When I gave this to dude who didn't know Rayman, he tried to make a Spin Dash. I liked first 4 levels, but then it was becoming worse and worse...
EDIT: Misspelling.

Gameloft has recently released a mobile game based on RRR:Tv Party.
Its unfortunately just 12 minigames, but the music should be good. Trying to find a download for it right now.

This doesn't look like crap. I really want to play it, and I've tried so much, but nothing actually goes through. Why can't this be like a normal emulator? Or normal ROMs?

I think you're going to need an Symbian phone. You need to order these games per SMS if i'm correct.
Anyway, you need to search for an emulator that emulates a phone with Symbian, Symbian is an operating system, not a platform

Did anyone else have a problem emulating these? I found a few torrents with Gameloft games, and some will work after converting the files to .jar and some will never work. A few games have a different size between torrents and will work, but I can't get every Rayman game or Gameloft games I want working correctly. Any tips? Or does anyone want to share their files of the various Rayman mobile games they can confirm work?
Also I would too be interested in a Symbian emulator.

Yeah with mobile games you're gonna find theres a ton of bad dumps that cant be emulated.
When I have the time I'll go through my collection of them and see if I can pick out the rayman games that work.

I wonder why people don't check their data dumps first to see if they work? Just lazy?
