So is this something to do with the 7 chaos emeralds???

[Jac2Mac]

Does anyone have the two bad endings of Rainbow Islands? I am curious to see them.

[snookerfran]

You can see one of them at the end of this longplay someone's posted: watch?v=2UDVmKANSYc

I've always wondered what these bonus wings were for. Can anybody tell me about them?

[snookerfran]

They let you 'fly' (i.e. keep jumping when you're in the air). Comes in handy in a couple of the later levels where there are hardly any platforms, but I can never get the timing right. :)

thanks snookerfran.when i beat rainbow island on ps1.i mean i have all the diamonds on 7 islands.but i couldnt get to 3 final islands.i guess on playstation version there are only 7 islands and on arcade is 10 islands so ill play the arcade version to see the real ending.oh btw.i beat rainbow island on nes[nintendo entertainment system].on nes is pretty hard.what happens if your score goes over 9999999 on the arcade version?thanks.

[snookerfran]

Yeah, ps1 probably does have only 7. I recommend the mame (arcade) version anyway, if only because you can save!

My score did go over 9999999, and nothing else happened. I think the end thing's just badly translated: it means that the only way to get that high score is to get the diamonds/go into the secret boss room & pick up all the money bags. That or it's a bug.

I didn't know Cartman shot rainbows...

This was out before Sonic, so who's stealing who?

[TheIrateFan]

It was worth it but, they really looked better with the curse

[luscaslayer]

The music from 1:16 has me bouncing off the walls. That's awesome!

[Yoshirockdude]

this isn't the true ending, the true ending says super skull monsta WAS ruined. you have to beat him without the bubble (sideways rainbows).

[LuigiMario404]

Cartman's acid trip.

[johnsymj]

Although you have completed it, if you had got the diamonds in the correct order - r.o.y.g.b.i.v on every single stage you would get 50M bonus points. my top score is 63M

@snookerfran Sorry for a late response, but the PS1 version is based off the Amiga version which only has 7 worlds, the original Rainbow Islands in arcades also had the extra 3 worlds, much like the Extra version.

I fucking loved this game

[DrLove0378]

@ 1:11 - The power of the diamonds changed the dinosaurs back into human beings. I guess they got transformed before they were imprisoned by the monster -- I have no idea what the game's backstory is.

[PikaChamp112]

so the 7 chaos emeralds free a bunch of little baby dragon dino things ..... wtf

[Jac2Mac]

Could anyone upload the bad endings of Rainbow Islands?
