Rayman Raving Rabbids, known in French as Rayman contre les Lapins Crétins, is a spinoff in the Rayman series released by the company Ubisoft as a Wii launch title. The game consists of 75 minigames. The game is primarily designed with the Wii Remote in mind, but is also available on Game Boy Advance, PlayStation 2, Microsoft Windows, Nintendo DS, and Xbox 360. Releases for PlayStation 3 and PSP of the game were planned, but were later cancelled for unknown reasons, making it the only game in the series that was released for the PlayStation 2. Ubisoft released a sequel to the game, Rayman Raving Rabbids 2, in November 2007, and released the third game in the series, Rayman Raving Rabbids: TV Party, in November 2008. The fourth game in the series, Rabbids Go Home, was released in 2009, though only on the Wii and DS systems and a fifth game, Raving Rabbids: Travel in Time, was released in 2010. A sixth game, Raving Rabbids: Alive & Kicking, was released in 2011 only for Xbox 360 and the seventh game, Rabbids Land, was released as a Wii U exclusive game on November 2012. As of April 2014, the series had sold over 14 million units worldwide.
There are two components for playing a ds Rayman Raving Rabbids game on your PC. The first component is the emulation program which can imitate the ds OS and software.
The second component is the Rayman Raving Rabbids game itself to play on the emulator.
Step 1: you can start by downloading a reliable and bug free emulator. We’d suggest NO$GBA – it’s open source, fast and one of the most frequently updated.
Once you have finished downloading NO$GBA , extract the downloaded .zip file to a location, for example your Desktop. After, double click the no$gba.exe file in order to start the emulator.
Your emulator will now be ready to play Rayman Raving Rabbids. But now you’ll need to find the correct ROMs online. A ROM is essentially a virtual version of the game that needs to be loaded into the emulator.
Step 2: return to NO$GBA and hit File > Open. Navigate to the downloaded .exe file and double click it to open it. The game will now run on the emulator and you can play the game freely.
Tip: Saving games on an emulator functions a little differently. The integrated save system will not save your progress.
Instead, you’ll need to click File > Save State and then choose an empty slot. You can save your progress in whatever point you like within the game, not only on the official checkpoints offered by the game.
When playing in the future and you want to continue from your saved state, you can use File > Load State to load up the game from exactly where you last saved it.
