In the GameCube version of ''[[Rayman 3]]'', [[2D Madness]] is unlocked by connecting the GameCube version of ''[[Rayman 3]]'' to a [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']] with every [[cage]] broken. In the other console and PC versions of ''[[Rayman 3]]'', it is unlocked by earning a certain number of points in-game. 2D Nightmare was originally thought to be unlocked by connecting a 100%-complete GameCube version of ''[[Rayman 3]]'' to a 100%-complete [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|Game Boy Advance version of ''Rayman 3'']]. Efforts to contact [[Ubisoft]] regarding 2D Nightmare were made, but produced no constructive responses. In December 2011, a method of unlocking 2D Nightmare was finally discovered using external game modifiers, such as Action Replay codes, on the GameCube version.

Eventually it was found on March 30th, 2016 that the game is supposed to unlock when every level in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version]] is completed. Unfortunately, the variable tracking the number of completed levels is not incremented after [[Heart of the Ancients|the final level]] is completed, meaning that it never reaches the value that the GameCube version expects in order to unlock the minigame. The minigame can therefore be unlocked by raising the variable manually in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version]] through a cheat program.

On March 23rd, 2022, a cheat code was found in [[Rayman 3 (Game Boy Advance)|the Game Boy Advance version]] that marks every level in the game as complete, including [[Heart of the Ancients|the final level]], allowing 2D Nightmare to be unlocked when connecting to the GameCube version after the cheat is entered, marking the first time in the over 20 years since the release of [[Rayman 3]] that the minigame has been unlocked without any modifications or cheating devices.

Two other GameCube-exclusive ''[[Rayman 3]]'' minigames exist. [[Mad Trax]] is a two-player kart-racing game, in which one player, controlling [[Rayman]] with the GameCube controller, races around an area in a similar fashion to the game's [[Crazy Shoe]] sections, collecting [[Jewel|gems]], and the other player, controlling [[Globox]], arranges the race-track by playing a ''Tetris''-like game on the connected Game Boy Advance. The other minigame, [[Wheelis]], is similar, but it involves four players; two controlling [[Rayman]] and [[Gumsi]] in [[Crazy Shoe]]s, and two playing the ''Tetris''-like game on the Game Boy Advances. Both [[Mad Trax]] and [[Wheelis]] have been unlocked successfully by obtaining enough points in the GameCube version.
