Cosplay Video

30 September;  Author: TRiPPY


A collection of NiGHTS related cosplay videos! NiGHTS cosplay is pretty rare- so when it's done it takes a lot of effort and enthusiasm…. not to mention guts lol! Cosplaying NiGHTS characters also raises awareness of the games at large public events, so i massively encourage it. If you have any videos of NiGHTS cosplayers tell us [ HERE ]

elis and Bruno made some incredible costumes for the huge World Cosplay Summit competition and went on to win places in both regional and Brazilian events. I'm so proud of them! Getting on stage is no easy thing to do and they done it so well too. "
NiGHTS into Dreams is such a WONDERFUL game. I am a NiGHTS lover since Sega Saturn. Last year, the launch of "NiGHTS Journey of Dreams" for Nintendo Wii make the gaming community EXCITED. Me included =D
The game is good, not so good as "into Dreams" but the design of THIS NiGHTS is sooooo nice that I decided to cosplay him (or she xD) ? It was a hard costume. Damn, very HARD to make that HAT. And to find the correct fabric…'cause this NiGHTS has a special shiny thing ? XD I simply love to play NiGHTS. One of my favorite costumes, FOR SURE <3"

Narrator:
What if you could fly?
Through the night sky, the World of Dreams awaits you.
A World just for you your Nightopia!!

NiGHTS:
Visitor from another world, welcome!
Is it your first time here? So, let me explain!
You are now at the entrance that your people call World of Dreams.
But don't be fooled by the name World of Dreams!
I don't mean that it doesn't exist. It is simply… How could I put it? It is a world that you can only visit when you are asleep.
But let me tell ya, it will be much better if we fly around then chat all day long! So, what do you say? Wanna dualize with me and fly around? Cause NiGHTS here is able to assimilate with your body and… Oh, it will be easier to understand if you try! Shall we go?
Reala:
AHAHAHAHAHA! Ah NiGHTS, long time no see! Walking around with our little visitor friend, aren't you?
NiGHTS:
Reala!

Reala:
You can cut the act now my dear brother, because the plan to obtain your …Ideya… has gone per-fec-tly!
NiGHTS:
Don't listen these lies!!!
Reala:
LIES??? AHAHAHAHA! Let me ask the visitor something. Do you know he is a …Nightmaren… like me? Oh! Poor, poor little visitor! Betrayed by the one you thought was a friend! Now say good bye, visitor!
NiGHTS:
NOOOOOO!(combat scene)
Visitor voice:
NiGHTS, I believe in you. I believe because we are friends. NiGHTS, I TRUST YOU!
NiGHTS:
Reala, you don't need to act like this!

Reala:
SHUT UP NiGHTS! An infidel like you can say NOTHING!
NiGHTS:
We are the same, my brother! You don't need to follow the dark side …cause we are not Wizeman's puppets! Reala, we all have free will! Come with me brother, make your choice!(END)

 

 

Maresuke & Friends
A compilation of Wizeman's best bits.

Game FMV

30 September;  Author: TRiPPY

NiGHTS into Dreams FMV *contains spoilers*:
NiGHTS into Dreams intro.
The very pretty sparkly video that plays straight after the SonicTeam logo. When you were used to seeing Mega CD graphics and saw this for the first time it blew you away. The infamous bow scene! Ahhh nostalgia.
Size-5.93Mb Time- 0:43 (.Avi)

Elliot Edwards the intro.
This video introduces you to the teenage WOE (omg™) of Elliots life and what his nightmare is.
Size-12.4Mb Time- 1:31 (.Avi)
Download Video
Claris Sinclair the intro.
Claris’ nightmare about her audition and her stage fright. We like the shadow Maren forms we do Sega, more of that plz.
Size-12.1Mb Time-1:29 (.Avi)
Download Video

Elliot’s Pre- Ending.
Gorgeous scenery of Spring Valley here, it would have been neat to see more of the levels in the videos.
Anyway Elliot wakes up and helps Claris out. Go man go.

Claris’ Pre- Ending.
Sure they look cute and like Oompa Loompas gone wrong but i wouldn’t trust them for a second dude. Claris is about to emo and realises she is not alone. Pretty cute scene.
Size-5.15Mb Time- 0:37 (.Avi)
Download Video
Elliot Ending.
Elliot faces his fears in the real world and steps up when the chips are down. Elliots friends have awesome eyebrows, they need some kinda recognition award just for being there. So um yeah.
Size-8.87Mb Time- 1:05 (.Avi)
Download Video
Claris Ending.
September the 29th, audition day. Reaching into the pit of oblivion (otherwise known as her self belief and her adventure with NiGHTS saving the universe and the probable demise of breakfast waffles) she brings forth the wonderous LA LA LA song. You go girl.
Size-12Mb Time- 1:28 (.Avi)
Download Video
Joint perfect A ending.
The one video everyone basicaly plays the game for. The UBERGLiTTER parade video.
Shed a tear at the niceness of it all, awe at the swirly glitter and confetti, question daylight fireworks- and then laugh at the gormless look Elliot gets when he see’s NiGHTS. It makes you wonder how bad the security was at T.Seeds tower when Elliot can go pelting down the stairs mid show.
Size-14.6Mb Time- 1:48 (.Avi)
Download Video
Elliot Outro.
For some odd odd reason the two raw outro videos were spliced all weird hence why you barely see them online because both the left and the right of the picture is cut off, but you can still see Elliot so i’ve included it anyway.

…I bet Elliot regrets throwing a hissy fit at that poster.
Size-1.61Mb Time- 0:20 (.Avi)
Download Video

Claris Outro.
Again with the weird cropped picture, but i didnt want to put up TV card video because it has lousy quality.

Fans speculate a lot about the relavence of NiGHTS on the tower at the end in the waking. People have a lot of suggestions on it. As did Archie :|

*Fanfare* for the first time ever online i’m proud to offer the japanese audio version for download. I only recently got to hear this myself despite owning all the Japanese versions for years. So marvel at the lovely narative voice and argue with net geeks over which version is superior.

This DVD came free with any E-rated Sega game purchased at GameStop.
It is a short documentary promo running through a brief history of NiGHTS into Dreams and then showcasing the latest game, NiGHTS Journey of Dreams. It is certainly a very interesting video with some cool shots of SonicTeam doing their concept work. Thanks to Xenon for sending this in.

NiD Debug Mode

27 September;  Author: TRiPPY

If you’re a NiGHTS fan you’ve heard of the infamous ‘cheat code’… everyone has. You know, the one that requires tapping in the phone directory backwards, building a barn and then collecting 50 blue chips. Yeah… that one.

Remnants of the debug mode were still present on the CD but nobody looking into the game could ever get it to work.

Well despite years of hoax claims by people (And magazines!) unaware that the ability to use the code was removed from retail version and only available on review copies given to the press- A MIGHTY MALAN has given us something quite tangible in the form of the Action Replay Debug Mode. Ok so it’s not the Abracadabra cheat but it does the exact same thing. Well done that man! Go visit his awesome site and shower him with pineapples.

The original dirty dirty LIE:
"On the Sonic Team screen press A,B,Right,A,C,A, Down, A, B, Right, A (ABRACADABRA). If you did this correctly, you should hear the sound you hear when you run out of time. Then at the title screen, press Up, Down, Left, Right, A+Start. You should hear a chime. Highlight one of Elliot’s dreams and press X,Y,Z,Y,X and push start. As Elliot, pause. Then press Right, A, Left, Left, and Y (RALLY). Press start again. Collect 50 orbs and jump. In midair, pause the game. A debug menu should come up. With it you can change the time limit and get rid of the Alarm Egg, access all levels AND in the 2 Player VS!"

THE TRUTH! Courtesy of Malan:

Ok guys, after some days of research, I have enough details, so here’s the codes you need:

As you probably know, SEGA has deleted the Debug Menu access. But the Debug Mode is still in the game! You just need an action replay to activate all options you want to (because there is no menu to select them).

Master code
F6000914 C305
B6000B00 0000

160FFC1C 0008 : Activate the Debug Mode

Controls
– Unpaused –
X : gives you the Ideya of the current Mare (you don’t see it but you can dualize)

– Paused –
A / B : next frame
X : go to the Nightmare (crashes if you are already in the Nightmare)
Z : crash the game (in my mind, it once displayed the Debug Menu, but since it was deleted, you get a crash instead)
R : hide all data in the screen (to make some beautiful screenshots!)
L+R+Y : display the Sound Test of the level and the DSS INFO


Now, I found some other debug options that you can’t activate without the Debug Menu :

160FFC1C xxxx

0001 : Unlimited Time
0002 : ???
0004 : ???
0008 : Activate the Debug Mode
0010 : Make your own demo (start a new game, press A+B+C+START when you’ve finished)
0020 : ???
0040 : Ideya Capture test (you can’t finish the mare)
0080 : ???
0100 : ???
0200 : ???
0400 : Display time and score tables (pause)
0800 : ???
1000 : ???
2000 : ???
4000 : Hide all data (same as L button in the debug mode)
8000 : ???


Concerning the "???" I already tested them but I didn’t notice anything usefull (only some bugs)

If you want to activate several options, you just have to add numbers (be careful, it’s hexadecimal, so 0008+0002=000A, not 0010)

If you notice something I did not, feel free to post it in this forum topic here:

SEGA Library Promo

27 September;  Author: TRiPPY

This is the full super-rare official Sega Library promo video donated to my collection by the lovely Tabi. The video is quite a large download at 717Mb but it’s a great thing to watch if you’ve never seen NiGHTS into Dreams in action before. It shows all the levels, the bosses and a few little rare things like the King/Super Pian tower fully formed. The best way to describe this video is an audio walkthrough of gameplay. It also shows some good techniques to improve your scores and get 2.0′s on the boss Maren. The commentary is in full Japanese, but you’ll appreciate it all the same. Such a lovely shiny piece of memorabilia.

Compressed with the DiVX codec, originally on VHS format. Runtime 53 minutes, that’s nearly an hours footage of NiGHTS gameplay :)
