You sound like a young one it seems.
But yeah, that's cool, I've seen that trailer before as well, but I don't remember if I saw it on tv first at the time or something. The only reason I got Rayman Raving Rabbids on the Wii was because of my brother, since he remembered I played Rayman games in the past before, being Rayman 1, 2, and 3.
But, it's cool that's how you started, you liking Rayman in the end shows how much you cared about him. :3 (And thank you for playing Rayman 3 at least once, thank you.) But I think if you could ever get the time, look for Rayman 2, either The Great Escape or Revolution, the one I got to play as a child...And honestly, I think is a better version of Great Escape, imo.
