Does anyone know if Ubisoft developed any true 3D games for the Game Boy Advance? Asking because RayCarrot discovered that there is code for a full 3D renderer in Rayman 3 GBA, but the only place it's used is this moving wheel in the credits screen.

The renderer has capabilities far beyond what would be necessary for that (including skeletal animation), so there's no way they developed it just for this, but I can't find a single example of where it could have been used.

@Rib i think they mightve experimented with that code, i dont believe the device wouldve been powerful enough for a 3d game and therefore they wouldnt have gone ahead with it
@meso @Rib There are multiple full 3D games on the GBA. It is exceptionally difficult but people have done it.

@sun @Rib @meso someone is making a Mario 64 port right now too. I think it's minimme (?) that did a series on official 3D GBA games too.

@sun @Rib @meso hell, Capcom almost had re1 running on a Gameboy color.
