Unlicensed Rayman games

Post by Cairnie »

In this thread we discuss any unlicensed [aka LOL PIRATE LOL BOOTLEG] Rayman games we might find.

At the moment I'm looking for a ROM of this dumb shit to see what it actually is, but with no luck yet. Any ideas on where I can find one?

Nope, Rayman IV, actually!

The best way to get it is to go to Russia and dump it yourself, actually. I'm however wondering what it could be... Fan-levels in R3? Or GC-link levels hard-burned on rom?

It's rated by the ESRB, I think, so isn't it American?

CTRL+C, then CTRL+V = You've got ESRB rating.

I think you'll find Spiral, that many, many bootlegs have the ESRB rating simply because they're copied from somewhere like the internet. You often used to see them at boot sales and you could so tell that they're fake, that's why I never buy them.

Maybe it's just fan-made cover art?

Well I was just thinking of this again not long ago. Hopefully you can find some moar sekrit infoez.


EDIT: Wait, have you contacted the Rayman Fanpage owner about this? I wonder why he/she would put it on the site if it wasn't real.

For same reason Sonic Cult puts info on Sonic Jam 6, Sonic 4 and fake Sonic 2.

Someone should buy it and then dump the rom
Even if it's a pirate game, it must be better than the original Rayman 4 (such a sh**)

Well yeah, if it was on Ebay or something and cheap someone could try and buy it... Although it'd probably be either: another Rayman GBA game, a cartridge that doesn't work (or no cartridge at all) or the best possibility: a real bootleg game! I remember I once played Crash Bandicoot Advance 4 and it was basically some shoddy Saudi Arabian hack of one of the other GBA games with its own (tough and idiotically designed) levels.


Oh and Stacey did you contact the owner of that site? I'm sure there must have been some reason why he/she put it there, as the site is one of the best Rayman websites running.

Rayman IV probably isn't a game or anything at all. It's probably just a FAN-MADE COVER. :bad:
