Rayman Returning on DSiWare?

Your favorite limbless hero looks to be back in portable form.

 Germany's USK rating board recently posted a listing for a DSiWare Rayman title from Ubisoft.  Little is known about the game at the present time, but a new title in the Rayman series is certainly a welcome addition to the Nintendo DSi's downloadable library.    


The last handheld Rayman game (aside from the Raving Rabbids spin-off series) was 2005's Rayman DS, a port of the Nintendo 64 title Rayman 2: The Great Escape.    


The listing appears to have been removed from the website as of press time, but you can check out a captured version over at GamerBytes.

Wait, Rayman's not dead yet?

I assumed Rabbids Go Home was about them running from the cops because they murdered Rayman's video game career.

Casualizing/mini-game festing doesn't equal murder, only castration.

I hope this is more than a port of the GBA port of the original Rayman.

And more than yet another Rayman 2 re-release.

Dismemberment. They chopped off his arms and legs and head. All that was left was a floating torso.

I hope it isn't a re-release of Rayman 1 or 2.

As for the Rabbids, I love them. But I agree in that Ubi did a big mistake in trying to shoehorn them into Rayman's world. Sure, I accepted it in the first game since it did a good job of incorporating them in Rayman's world and giving them a story. But in the second and third game Rayman was an after thought, especially in the second since he sounded and acted like a Rabbid.

I think you guys have it all wrong, Rayman committed a crime, so he went to his fantasy-land or wherever the games take place to hide. Then he cut off his own limbs so he wouldn't be instantly recognizable. I do not know anything about the crime or the Rabbid's involvement.

But then he'd have to hop around like Plok.
