Doesn't any of you feel, that this game has been in a really short development time? Maybe I am just expecting really long waits. Actually it's not only this game, quite a few big names have been released quite quickly.

And that only counts for the first 7-8 years of my life when they bothered with a tree at all.

You should fill the void in your heart with NiGHTS, love can come through an open door
A perfectly good option!Pureauthor said:You don't talk 'bout my momma that way!
Anyway, a Wii's not in the cards for me until Nintendo comes up with a storage solution that doesn't suck. Maybe I'll content myself with the PS2 remake.
Segata Sanshiro said:A perfectly good option!
Sadly in my probings of the last couple of days it doesn't seem like a release of NiGHTS PS2 is in the cards outside of NA unless NiGHTS:JoD does some god-like numbers.
Z'ah well, this is why we have PS2s that can play Japanese games, yes?

I do put my mind on the time the game was released though, as there would be no point in comparing it with current gen graphics.
SupahBlah said:One of the things I loved about the saturn if you put the games in a CD player they would play the music.
Absolutely loved nights and sega rally for that.

No, it's beautiful and foresees a happy marriage.SupahBlah said:Is it sad my fiancée remembers this song too?
Teddman said:So no Xmas NiGHTS mode? That will actually make a difference of whether I buy this immediately upon release or not, since it'd be right in time for the holiday theme.
Segata, do you like NiGHTS or not? I'm having trouble figuring you out, dude.Segata Sanshiro said:Ha ha!
You know what I would love as a pre-order bonus? A nice big glossy poster of that last image in the OP. Well, the image before my edit. Of NiGHTS in front of the moon. That was my desktop background for like six years.
Nope, emulator. Took those shots years ago.ivysaur12 said:Is this from the remake?
It has a remade Dreams, Dreams. I actually like the new one better.DarthWaiter said:So does this game have the song "Dream Dreams" or a variation or new song like it?

:lol too true. After waiting for almost an eternity I shouldn't whine that much. At least I hope the Japanese and Americans will give this game plenty of lovin' and sales.Segata Sanshiro said:It's still a little ways out, but compared to eleven years, not so long, right? Right?
It always gets hardest to wait near the end, so I understand. I too hope this game sells, and I think there's a shot for it to carve out some decent numbers, but honestly, I'm not expecting much.Phife Dawg said::lol too true.

I don't expect this to light the charts up like a bonfire but I think it'll do decently. You never know what insane expectations the SEGA guys have though, so it may well be the last we see from Nights. Then again like yourself I never expected JoD to happen as well .Segata Sanshiro said:It always gets hardest to wait near the end, so I understand.

Then again, if it bombs and nothing else NiGHTS ever happens, it's still one more NiGHTS game than I was ever expecting to get.
Crushed said:God, Saturn games were just so ugly.
I found this site devoted to Saturn emulation, filled with hundreds of pixel-perfect screenshots. Lord, it makes DS 3D look attractive.
This is relevant.Sciz said:How exactly do you force anti-aliasing in SSF (or whichever emulator you were using at the time)?
Sega1991 said:Oh, come on. If you're going to post screenshots that look like that, keep in mind this is how the competition looked:

NiGHTS on the Saturn was one of the more technologically impressive games for the system with high-res (for the era) textures, multiple colored light sources (which were a HUGE deal back then), and a silky smooth framerate.
Don't just go on the internet and say, "LOL, SATURN SUX, LOOK AT THESE SCREENSHOTS". No, that's just how [I]all[/I] games back then looked.[/QUOTE]
Don't give it much attention, it was basically trolling.
And don't forget to mention that those, along with NiGHTS, were all amazing games. :D

Whoa! I was just scrolling down the Gaming Discussion only to see what I thought was my Gaf name in the Nights thread, it's weird that our names are so similar!!

And they probably have very different origins, as mine comes from a crazy internal joke I have with my friends. :lol

I sure hope you haven't abused some kind of burgeoning internet romance with Dragona to keep your thread "clean".Segata Sanshiro said:System Warriors aren't going to be tolerated in this thread, from either "side". All the other NiGHTS threads were shitted up so badly that the mods are keeping a close eye on this one.
So don't cry for someone who popped into the Official NiGHTS thread just to say how much the original NiGHTS looked like shit, Borys. He did it to himself.
well the framerate Ill agree with, after playing Galaxy. but for its era, Saturn looked great.Amir0x said:What pure soul COULDN'T love horrendous textures and ridiculously low geometry and eye-raping pixelation? I mean!
Thank God we're out of the Saturn era, fine for the time but man hallelujah we're passed that. What a blessed thing the Wii version doesn't look like that. Although, if it has a rocky framerate it should still be ashamed!

Its definitely a gamer you have to see in motion to appreciate today though. BUT ITS STILL BEAUTIFUL

Amir0x said:Beautiful in the same way a piece of roadkill is beautiful after it has been decaying for two weeks, I suppose.
In that only fucking freaks or taxidermists can think it's beautiful. At least, that's my theory!
NiGHTS on Wii looks pretty nice if the framerate is solid, so it doesn't need to be bogged in this, but you don't lack a soul if you think the Saturn game is ugly because it is. Fucking disgusting, actually. If i went back in time and erased my memory of every progress we have made in the past decade, maybe I could consider the alternative view.

I'm pretty sure you can still do laps, but the scoring is different with regards to the time bonus. So we'll have to see how it works out. I can respect Iizuka wanting to make a different game from the original NiGHTS, I just hope his changes don't really take away the enjoyable core elements of NiGHTS.ivysaur12 said:I just hope the bird thing doesn't ruin what made the original so amazing.
