Sorry I've been gone lately guys, but I just had to share this with y'all.
I like the proposition of another NiGHTS on the Wii. It's the system that I have. >.< Try to ignore the comments of discontent below the article.

Still though, I know of at least a few NiGHTS fans who want him on the PS3 and such, myself included. Because I want to see what they could do with that, and I already hope to get one eventually.

Oh my god... NiGHTS ass in high resolution.
I highly doubt any new sequels will ever be on a PS3.... Though strange things do happen such as Bioware making that Sonic RPG game. x_X;
...Hey! Jackle in the new game sequel! :D

I think the reason Iizuka might decide to keep it to the Nintendo system is because he's waiting to see how sales go after JoD has released everywhere else on the globe. Judging by the feedback so far for JoD, people are seemingly quite happy with the game. Fair to say it's no NiD but the response has not been as crap as some of reviews that Sonic has been getting lately and Iizuka is seeing this. He might decide to play it safe and stick with the Nintendo crowd or if the funds are enough to take the project there then he could very well try to bring a project to PS3/360.

The only situation I would be less-than-happy with is some kind of bizarre decision to go PS3-exclusive, 'cause I don't plan on getting one of them for another few years yet unless we see another big price drop.

360 just doesn't shift units in Japan.
Neither Sonic or NiGHTS shift units in Japan. Sonic team games, as a whole, are dead on arrival there.
Personally I'd be happy with an Xbox Live Arcade/PSN NiGHTS game. The average budget for a real next gen fame is about £15 million, not taking into account advertising, it's much less on the Wii and less still on XBLA et al. The game is hardly ever going to set the world on fire, whatever format it's on, but without the costs of physical media and given the widespread appeal of these services, it seems logical.
The Wii has Wii Ware next year, but the size limitations on it seem almost crippling.

Maybe if we're lucky, Sega would re-release NiD on the Xbox 360/PS3 as a remake of it with better graphics and put it as a download on the Xbox Live Marketplace/Playstation Store (at least to credit to the fans in the States who don't get the Japanese remake of NiD for the PS2).
The Wii would still be nice for motion controls, but only if they can get it right unlike JoD.

Yes, but there's not even potential sales over there given the low amount of of hardware sold is all I'm saying.
Perhaps the 360 would be a better decision, given that it and the Wii have around the same amount of sales worldwide, but the 360's is with a larger percentage in western countries. But then I guess you've also got to consider demographics and such, and is a typical owner of one console more likely to buy a NiGHTS game than the typical owner of the other.

Thing is though, they have not completely written out the idea of NiGHTS on PS3/360. Up until just before JoD's Japanese release, there was still talks in the Sega office about having a NiGHTS game on the other consoles. It was nothing solid but the talks were there and i'm pretty sure they still are.

But what about all those fans who are Nintendo loyal? What if they don't own a PS3 or a 360? I'd hate to see this great franchise sold only on systems we don't have. I know a lot of you hace PS3's and 360's but I know a lot of people (and I mean A LOT) who are Nintendo loyal through and through. I hope that if they release it on the PS3 and 360 they at least have the decency to give us Nintendo freaks a chance.

And, ArchangelUK, if you read this, I hope you find the time to show this to your superiors. You hear me, SEGA?! Don't be stupid, here! You should take the time to read the complaints about JoD, and create an even BETTER NiGHTS game!!

Well, they apparenty like it more than SRA, I can actually find people to race online. Hey, did we ever get sales numbers for JoD?Thing is though, they have not completely written out the idea of NiGHTS on PS3/360.

Also, here's a thought people. NiGHTS Ps2 is another NiGHTS game. Think about it.

A different system pretty much ensures better graphics, and they really need better graphics. JoD looked like a PS1 platforming nightmare in some spots. I was expecting a much prettier game- the only part worth replaying for visual quality are the openings and endings. Then again, SEGA would really be smacking its' hardcore fans with a different console release. Multiconsole ne C:?
The voices also need to go away if there's another. NiGHTS sounded like he was on helium, Reala's that creepy old man down the street that you tell your daughter to stay away from, and the kids who did Helen and Will have little to no talent in voice acting. NiD had an eloquent feel to it without voices. JoD is...ick.
Not that I don't like the game, which I prolly really sound like. I love it, I just don't like the way SEGA rushed it out. I think they themselves got caught up in the hype for it. Waiting isn't fun, but it would have been better if we'd had to wait for a polished summer '08 release. I'm disappointed with Sonic Team.
Back on topic, now ^^;;;. A PS2 release would be a good way to go, considering they're already doing the remake for it. The PS2 is virtually every gamer's homeboy (ick, modern slang...), and it outperformed itself with every major release on it. Kingdom Hearts and KH2 look excellent in cutscenes and out- now picture NiGHTS looking that nice and polished throughout the game. Yay!
So my opinion: PS2, or make the Wii version prettier than JoD was. And for the love of god...NO HANDHELD.

1. The analog is perfect for NiGHTS.
2. It produces gorgeus visuals.
3. You won't see 3 lights while paralooping.
But hey Iizuka's decision is his decision. I wonder what Naka would have decided.

Aight, DiGi Holmes up in the place smokin' the pipe. I'm a bloody detective, i swear down. I just got my reply from Julissa and IT IS her. And i got more of an answer than i bargained for. Here's her reply when i asked her if it is her doing the voice acting for NiGHTS -
Hello Digi, thank you for your interest in the game Journey of dreams and in answering your question... yes I did play the part of Nights for the new re released game. My name is Julissa Aguirre. There will be another game
coming out soon where the Nights character is written in to the story line. Let the fans know I'm very flattered that they like the game and thank you so much for the support!
Take Care,
Julissa
So. How about that? Give me 4 hours online and i've found NiGHTS' voice actor. Boom shakala! XD
Now on to ask her if she wants to appear in DreamCast ...and what's this other game that NiGHTS is making an appearance in? He's set to appear in Zero Gravity, we know that much...maybe she done the voice acting for him in that, too.
*Looks up* Hopefully that quote coding doesn't screw itself up... *Clears throat*
Anyway, that is either proof of a new NiGHTS game in the works, or undisputable proof that NiGHTS will speak in Sonic Riders: Zero Grav. Either one. Just came to throw fuel on the flame. Hopefully it doesn't spark a war... [/badbadpun]

If they are going to make a 3rd game they should have an acid trip mode where everything is extra trippy and the screen goes in and out with funkadelic spirals blazing in the background to the beats of funky guitar riffs. The gameplay should move faster than the speed challenges on NFS:PS and the battles could be like DBZ episodes. Remember just a mode. Not an entire game
That sounds like the inside of my friend Jussell's apartment. You walk in there and you think you just stumbled onto the set of a bad hippie movie. Funkadelic wallpaper and pink feather boas everywhere. Peace signs on the walls, the whole shabang. Sounds so much fun though!
