Rayman didn’t have a console to represent him or a generation to stand up for – Rayman instead quietly solidified his place as a charming, fantastical, and inventive platform adventurer with a little bit of everything, and for me, made him easily stand alongside Mario, Sonic, or Crash. Mario proudly championed Nintendo while Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon took the reigns of PlayStation, and Sonic the Hedgehog kept Sega as a relevant console producer with his dizzying high-speed adventures.
In the heyday of the ‘90s platforming era, iconic characters and “mascots” practically defined a console generation, with Rayman being a part of them. Rayman and his wacky adventures have always held a special place in my heart.
