Bunny girls sell Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 in Japan
Humor has played a big role in Ubisoft's marketing of Rayman Raving Rabbids 2, but sex? Erm ... not so much. It's a different story in Japan, however. There, models dressed in midriff-baring outfits and bunny ears are recruited to sell the game to the public in shopping malls.Tottering on their high heels, they watch over a (admittedly very impressive) kiosk dedicated to Ubi's game, complete with Wii demo units, and tons of awesome Rabbids merchandise, including postcards, hats, and some too-cool-for-words Rabbids tote bags that WE MUST OWN.Plunge(r) past the break for more snaps.
Rabbids know how to play
The latest trailer for Rayman: Raving Rabbids 2 is pretty much what we look for in any game trailer. It has lots of gameplay footage, some bit of humor and cheating rabbits. Oh, how we love those cheating rabbits. And, the minigames look fun, too.Who's going to pick this up?
Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 intro invades our hearts
We're not sure what it is about those crazy rabbids, but even when they're bludgeoning people with their plungers, we can't help but love them. It shouldn't come as a surprise, then, that the above video makes us all kinds of giddy inside. Supposedly this is the first part of the game's introduction, but we suppose we'll just have to wait and see. So for now, just watch, enjoy, and then rave like rabbids.[Via GoNintendo]
Rabbids DO know what to do with a DS
While some of those crazy rabbids might not know what to do with a DS (we guess it could be a weapon, if you throw it hard enough), others are more informed in the ways of stylus-fu. And, based on the footage above, one will have to be adept in the art form as the game will demand plenty of tasks be completed with stylus in hand. It looks fun though, we must admit, so we're glad Ubisoft decided to go Nintendo-exclusive with the sequel here.
Nothing screams 'Rabbids' like a plunger to the face
The last time we brought you Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 gameplay videos, there was nary a plunger to be found. Fortunately, these new trailers from IGN show us that the rail-shooter minigame has returned.Despite the fact that we thoroughly enjoy shooting stuff with plungers, especially crazy bunnies, we have to say that these videos just didn't do much for us. Maybe it's because the one embedded above reminds us of being forced to sit in the front row at a movie theater. Maybe it was the pacing, or the lack of music. Then again, perhaps we're over this whole rabbid thing.Don't get us wrong, we still love the little buggers ... but whatever it is, something is just off. Are we cranky today, or do you feel the same way?By the way, more plunger videos are embedded after the jump.
Get Rabbid with some Rayman videos
CVG has been so kind as to upload a couple of choice videos for the second title following Rayman and those kooky bunnies' first outing on the Wii, Rayman: Raving Rabbids. Rather than the short marketing videos featuring the bunnies, these clips focus on showing off some of the new minigames in store for those willing to sign up. So, while they aren't as humorous as you would expect, the footage of the new minigames should still tickle your fancy.
