NiGHTS 2 is real, and it's coming to Wii

Holy......you know.

Please God, don't let this suck.

Wow.

If I kept typing, it would end up looking a lot like your post, 'cause I'm thinking the exact same thing.

Yeah, I've waited so long for this, but I'm afraid they might have waited too long. Here's hoping they don't add any "innovation" to it. Sonic Team innovation can cause mental damage.

That render is so good though, it gives me hope. Pure classic. NiGHTS is pure so far. I hope it stays that way.


Either way, I'm getting hyped for this, no matter the outcome. I've wanted it for so long.

Do we have a release date on this?

Don't eat me, but what the hell is NiGHTS?

NiGHTS is a severely overrated game that came out on the Sega Saturn. It's one of those games that garnered a huge fan base for no real logical reason. It's like the Kid Icarus of Sega games.

Perhaps the same could be said of all games? BUT ENOUGH TALK. HAVE AT YOU

Steal your tongue, knave! I will refrain from drawing my sword, simply because you seem like a genuine fan of the game. However, you must admit that the majority of the people who've cried for this sequel have probably never even touched the first one.

As I said, it's like Kid Icarus. There are seemingly endless fans of it, yet no one played it, and while it may be good, it's not super awesome terrific! People hail Kid Icarus as Nintendo's, "Lost Gem" but in truth, the game seriously blows. Not that I'm saying NiGHTS blows, far from it, but I do believe it's one of those games that's earned fans over the years through word of mouth, rather than any actual playtime.

No it is, I actually do agree. I just couldn't pass up the chance to say that.

And it was the game people used to justify wasting their money on that crap system.

They waited way to long for this. I doubt they knew the Wii was coming out back when they had a chance for a sequel.

Except for those of us who liked the Saturn and bought it long before NiGHTS ever came out.

There's those people to, but all the kids I knew back in the school days bought one after that game came out. I remember we had one kid in our class, and we know how kids make up stories, who said his Dad worked at Sega and he got advanced copies of all their games or whatever. He told everyone how cool it was so all the kids whined to get one and alot of them did.

I still didn't though, I had seen displays for it at K-mart where you could play it or watch videos and it just didn't interest me. But I knew alot of those kids who got the Saturn didn't buy many other games with it. I'd go over to their houses and it would be in their closet with the few games they had just sitting there.

On that subject Which Sega disk system had Gex The Gecko on it? I played that as a kid alot at my uncle's house but I don't remember much beyond the game and it being on Sega.

Saturn was only bought so RPG nerds could play Shining Force III and everyone else could play Virtua Fighter. Damn that Pai.

That would be Sega Saturn. God, that game was sweet. I had it for Playstation.

Gex came from the 3DO. They ported it everywhere else, including Saturn and PSX.

Yes, NiGHTS is totally overated, but it did have two of the most awesome looking characters, NiGHTS and Reala. This game sort of did suck, bad. 6 levels, way too short. Even so, I still enjoyed the game on the first playthrough, loved it's soundtrack (especially Reala's theme), and the boss fights were great. Christmas NiGHTS was a damn good bonus (even though it only contained one level, and had way more extra's than the actual game itself).

Hopefully NiGHTS 2 will bring Reala back from the dead, but Sonic Team tends to hide him, so I somehow doubt it.

Not too found of NiGHTS' new outfit.

That thing is a bit homo erotic looking. I can't tell if it's a dude or a chick, looks like a dude and that disturbs me.

Thats the thing. NiGHTS has no gender. If you played the games, you'd understand that.

Screens.

A bit too out there for my liking, but maybe you fans will like it.

Change that to paid attention to the story actually haha I just played a level or two at a friends house now and again. I never beat it or anything.

Graphically unimpressive, but sweet nonetheless.

I need this now. Some of those screenshots though look oddly like original stages.

Same Scene's, but a little more Info. http://www.n-europe.com/news.php?nid=10318 And TMB, Splash Garden is a returning level as far as I can tell, so thats probably what your seeing.

For the love of all that is good and holy Sega, don't fu*k this up.

And get Dreams Come True in on the music again.

Considering it's a Wii game, it's already doomed. I played alot of Wii games, and so far, all controls in the games have been terrible. Except Excite Truck, which was about the only decent Wii game I've played.

Then again, alot of Wii games were rushed to get out early, and Sonic games are meant to suck now, so that excuses that. NiGHTS one was supposibly a masterpiece, so they better find some way to equal or top it.

And most of all, they BETTER bring back Reala dammit!

Fanart below...

Okay, so Reala usually has better fanart, but this is all I could find on a quick Google search. I especially love the first one anyway...

Reala is already in it. We know that. ;)

He damn well better be. We know Claris and Elliot are back, I could do without that loser Wizeman. But I've got to see Puffy and Jackle return as well (even though it looks like one of the bosses is already some form of Puffy).

Also, if they add voice acting (I would be terrified to hear NiGHTS' voice), I can imagine Reala with a twisted, deep (or high pintched) voice. Jackle I can imagine sounding more like the Joker.


Uh oh...according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NiGHTS_Wii

...let me point out...

Sonic Team is developing the game.
Takeshi Iuzuka, the director of Sonic Heroes, is directing NiGHTS Wii.

We're doomed...


EDIT: Wikipedia has since edited the page, so those two lines are no longer on it.

End of that. Nice while it lasted.

Heh, Third Mario Bro is NiGHTS, I'm Reala. "There is None, NiGHTS!" (at least thats all I can ever make out of Reala's only words in the game...)

The game has officially received a name.

NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams

Only 7 worlds? Now I'm pissed. This was okay 11 years ago...but ONLY 7? They better be DAMN good to hold us over for another 11 or so years...

I wonder, since this will have internet access, and will be released around Christmas, you guys think we may see some form of Christmas NiGHTS?

It turns out the game will be using the forecast channel for in-game weather integration.

It also says NiGHTS will have different masks that will grant him different abilities, like the Dolphin mask that allows him to swim.

Sounds like a possibly good idea, but I'm beginning to loose faith in all Wii third party development after this morning, and Sega isn't known to inspire confidence. I'm now waiting to see what element of the project they cut corners on to save money. The testing department? The soundtrack? What's going to get fu*ked up so I can stop bothering caring about this.

Sorry, but I've been down this damn road too many times.

Goddammit it's constantly ****ing raining over here!

Here's a pretty good source for NiGHTS 2. Oh and Reala is back. http://www.nightsintodreams.com/NiD/...y/ofdreams.htm

Also, check out the forum there. Probably the best NiGHTS forum, or used to be until they went down. They just got it back up again, and withen hours, it already has 100 members.

alot of sega games has been sucking alot lately. sonic, their main mascot has sucked since the days of the dreamcast.

they should make another panzer dragoon game.

they did awesome on Orta.

I take back what I said about the forum. It's run by idiots. No one there has a brain, and on top of it, they don't understand what this word we call 'humor' is. Just stay far away from the forum. But the source I gave is still a pretty good source. Just the forum is a terribly run place. They kicked me out because they can't tell seriousness from sarcasm and humor O.o

Fanboys can be quite sensitive.
