If you’re itching for some familiar side-scrolling action and your Wii U needs some attention then you’re in luck. The Wii U Virtual Console will see a slightly random release tomorrow if you’re in the US; Rayman 3.
Here’s a snapshot reminder of Rayman 3:
When Globox, Rayman’s best friend, inadvertently swallows a dreadful black Lum, it isn’t the end of the world — but it could be! To prevent a full-scale invasion of malicious, ill-mannered hordes there is only one solution: Rayman must get someone to treat his burdensome pal.
What a weird time to be releasing Virtual Console titles on the Wii U…
I wish Nintendo would detail their Virtual Console service for Switch. I’m not buying Wii U VC games until I can be sure that they either:
A) Won’t be on Nintendo Switch at all
or B) Will eventually transfer to Switch for free or a small fee
Rayman 3 isn’t side-scrolling…
It is if it’s the GBA version, which I’m guessing is exactly what it is.
I have Rayman 3 on GOG so I’ll stick with that thanks. Didn’t think much of the GBA version tbh.
(I commented on the wrong thread by mistake before so ignore that)
Wait wait wait WAIT. Rayman 3 was released on the Gamecube and wasn’t rereleased on the Wii… DOES THAT MEAN GAMECUBE VIRTUAL CONSOLE IS FINALLY HERE???
…
If that’s the case, they better also put GC VC games on the Switch, cause the Wii U is basically dead.
I jumped to the same conclusion, but chances are like the guys in the comments are saying;
It’ll be the GBA version.
Maybe should’ve clarified it was the GBA version, almost gave me a heart attack.
I thought this was too good to be true… I never got to play Rayman 3 on console, but I want to.
I assume its the GBA version,which is good news to me,the GBA version is superiour to the console version.Rayman 3 GBA plays more like Rayman 1 and 2.I only played the game on my Wii emulator and it was laggy,so I’ll get it tomorrow
