#6829 Vote! Dreamcast or Wii?

Posted by Tyson Toast on 01 June 2007 - 03:57 AM in Poll Area

Due to the Dreamcasts low sales, it's unlikely the game would have been commercial success, which would do anything but open the door for more sequels. It'd be just like the original NiGHTS; released onto a dying console and thrown into obscurity.

NiGHTS is like a monument to SEGA's gambling attitude in a way.

#6681 Topic of Rumination: What is Reala's Line?

Posted by Tyson Toast on 30 May 2007 - 09:42 PM in NiGHTS chit-chat

I was just about to suggest the fact that it's a Japanese game, then you came and stole my thunder. Random stuff which pops into my head when i listen to it and makes no sense in ANY language consists of crap like "Paris mower, NiGHTS" and "Maris Noah, NiGHTS". All that's really certain is the NiGHTS bit. I do like the sound of having a weekly Paris Mower Night though.

Well, if "Wizeman" is as "wise" as you would be led to believe, then I'd think he'd whip out some new minions with new strategies to stop the same fate that befell him in his last venture of world domination.

I'd beat my wife for the good of fun.

Wait, I'm not allowed to say that, am I?

This is why I strictly put "highly possible" as opposed to probable. I know it's not likely at all, but it's nice to think of what could have been.

Actually, Kingdom Hearts is on GBA (and probably my favorite of the 3 KH games, at that) and Streets of Rage is on the Wii Virtual Console. You're right about Devil May Cry, though.

... unless you count Capcom vs SNK Card Fighters for DS. That has Dante in it.

I don't think they'd bring Virtual Console into the account, and to be honest Streets of Rage doesn't seem full of charismatic and memorable characters. And since Kingdom Hearts is really a Sony centric game there's probably better choices for characters than Sora. Plus due to Copyright issues with Disney and such, that'd be quite a tangly tangle. Of course, it's possible. I mean who honestly would have thought Snake would appear in Brawl?

As for NiGHTS move set, I honestly have no idea, but I also wondered how Snake would fit in, but he seems quite a tasty fit now I think about it. They could always just throw in a different Maren. Gulpo, anyone?

Tomoko Sasaki also composed Ristar, which has appeared on the virtual console... she also gets special thanks in the Space Channel 5 credits and did some work on Feel the Magic... she gets around XD

As for NiGHTS appearing on a Nintendo console, he's had numerous cameos from Sonic Pinball Party to Sonic Riders, and he did have that mini game all to himself in Billy Hatcher.

And Mewtwo flew around the place in Melee, wouldn't be too hard to have him in there.

I still reckon he won't be... but neah.

Well, whether NiGHTS appears in it or not, we'll be getting some tasty soundtracks. Anything like Soft Museum and I'll be content. What gets me is that it specifically mentions NiGHTS, not Feel the Magic or Space Channel 5, which are pretty notable works in themselves.

Another thought that occurred to me is that of NiGHTS levels. Levels like soft museum would be delicious, and they could use it to build hype for the new game while adding free ideas and fan bait, much like they did with the Animal Crossing trophies in Melee.

Nintendo set a requirement for third party places in the game. "The character must have appeared on a Nintendo console at least once". Snake managed to get on due to his debut on the NES (and Hideo Kojima "practically begging" for Snake to appear.) NiGHTS new exclusivity to the Wii makes him a perfect fit. Sure, he hasn't technically appeared on a Nintendo console yet, but since it's known that Sega are giving Nintendo one of their strongest franchises, I doubt that the little technicality is going to be an obstacle.

The appearing on a Nintendo console voids a lot of the franchises there as well. Kingdom Hearts, Devil May Cry and I'm pretty sure Streets of Rage can't appear in the game because of it, which narrows it down quite significantly.

In the advent of the new Smash Bros Brawl site, a large list of people employed for the Smash score was publicised. The vast majority of the list consists purely of videogame composing veterans, spanning from the composer of Actraiser's soundtrack to Nintendo's musical legend, Koji Kondo.

Among the list was NiGHTS' melody man, <insert name here>. This considered it is highly possible that NiGHTS will feature in the Brawl as one of the mentioned three third party combattents. Of course it's just speculation, but with the praising comments from Shigeru Miyamoto towards NiGHTS, and the new Wii exclusive NiGHTS game, it's one worth pondering.

One thing I don't recommend is adding a wannabe "NiGHTS" thing to the main character name. It looks really tacky and amateurish putting capitals everywhere but the i's. Even Sonic Team avoided doing that to any character but NiGHTS. Sorry to anyone here who conforms to that craze, but I had to throw that out there.

It's always the flying rocks which get me. They always spawn directly on top of me, destroying my chances of getting a 2.0 on the multiplier.

I'll give it a try if you make it, what really puzzles me is the fact that the game doesn't lag at all as it skips. Strange as centipedes.

#5740 New NiGHTS Homebrew Game!

Posted by Tyson Toast on 20 May 2007 - 12:20 PM in NiGHTS chit-chat

That's strange. I don't have that happen on my end. Does it skip not matter what level you're playing on or what you're doing? If you press S to turn off the sound, and then again to turn it back on, does it continue to skip?

If anyone else is having this problem, let me know.

Yep, first or second level and all the way through it, even if I'm static. I turn the music off and on and that didn't help, so I checked if my normal music players skipped but they were fine.

Edit: Oh yeah, I have a selfish request too. Can we have a pause button? It'd be mega useful.

I don't know if this is a common problem, but for me, the music skips like a old Beatles LP, even though the game runs at full speed.

#5705 Your least favourite Nightmaren from NiGHTS into Dreams...

Posted by Tyson Toast on 19 May 2007 - 10:04 PM in NiGHTS chit-chat

I've never had a problem defeating a boss, NiGHTS isn't really the hardest game in town after all. If I had to choose a boss I hated most it would have to be Gulpo though, just for sheer boringness. I hope they have some really puzzling bosses in Journey of Dreams, I want a boss that you have to re-figure out if you face it again, and bosses that don't appear the first time you play through, and instead randomly appear after a certain ammount of "NiGHTS". Yes, I do know I'm being delirious, but I can dream.

#5630 So, how many of you haven't actually played NiGHTS?

Posted by Tyson Toast on 18 May 2007 - 09:43 PM in [ARCHiVED] NiD Discussion

I never expected this many NiGHTS fans to have not played the game. There's probably more art lover only fans than copies of the game purchased.

Strangely enough, this is the best NiGHTS game in 10 years. Fabulous.

I really like the boost rings. I think they should be added into normal levels as a staple. Could be used as tricks and such to throw you backwards. As for new gameplay ideas, I think it'd be cool to have more obstacles. A few rocks or walls to maneuver around, and a few enemies here and there. And also, for some reason I really love the NiGHTS sprite, It has character I guess o.O
