During a live stream of ''[[Rayman Legends]]'', through which Michel Ancel replied to a question concerning the SNES version of ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]''. He stated that he was only in a team of two at the time the Super Nintendo version was being made, and that he was 'super excited', it being the first platform he'd ever worked on directly. It was painful and extensive procedure to build the game onto the cartridge though, and since he eventually got the full team together, the Super Nintendo couldn't do it justice.

On 18th October 2016, [[Michel Ancel]] posted two partial screenshots from the SNES version of ''[[Rayman 1|Rayman]]'', confirming that the game was never completed and adding that it was lost forever.<ref>Instagram, @michelancel, https://www.instagram.com/p/BLt6dsUgODo/, « Pixel lovers ... Did this 25 years ago , the game was playable on the Super nintendo console but was never finished + We've lost the build . All these pixels are lost , like tears in the rain ... »</ref> However, on 23rd October he announced that a cartridge containing an early version of the game from this stage of development was found by Frédéric Houde, this cartridge was stated to have been from 1992,<ref>Instagram, @michelancel, https://www.instagram.com/p/BL5fSliA2bD/, « Incroyable !!!! We have found the old unique Rayman SNES ROM !!!! It was sleeping for 24 years ..... Time to wake it up !!!! »</ref><ref>Instagram, @michelancel, https://www.instagram.com/p/BL_wNhGALF8/ « Rayman SNES in motion . The little ugly guy is alive after a 24 years night . This ROM might be the first one we burnt and contains very few stuff . We might find more ROM with other early prototypes . I just need to convice Fred, the coder who revealed their existence to continue the search in his vast and dangerous attic. Man, this is electronic archeology ! »</ref> and managed to make it work.
