Ding! The official site is up with better screenshots of the game plus the box art.

PS: The URL is screwed up. Try spelling NiGHTS with lower-case letters.

It looks niiiiice : (
I want this. Alot. And the deluxe version does indeed come with the Storybook of Awesomeness. Kinda kills it's rarity and uniqueness a little..

[viperxmns]

I'll be super curious to see it in motion.. sigh.. hope this comes to America, because even though it'd be a slap in the face to my Saturn and original game, I probably will have no choice but to buy this

[Jof]

In 2000 the site of this image would have brought fans crumbling to their feet.

WAIT ! I spy a NTSC logo ! Or double WAIT... is that just NTSC-J ?

[Meggiemaccat]

Erm... why's the blurb under the 'Dream Paradox' logo in perfect English if it's being released in Japan, nevermind ONLY in Japan??? Oo' And what is the significance of the NTSC logo?

[Jof]

And what is the significance of the NTSC logo?

NTSC is the analogue television system used in the USA. It's PAL in Europe and Australia, and NTSC J in Japan. It's basically the different gaming regions and what's compatable.

It doesn't matter though, upon further research; a.k.a a quick Google image search, it's on all Jap PS2 games. So nyeh, doesn't mean anything. Its NTSC-J.

[Kori]

From what I remember, the original Japanese Saturn version also had perfect English on the cover. *shrug* Could be wrong!

But yes, STORYBOOK!! @_@ Oh man oh man oh MMMMMAN does this have to get over here. Or at least through the site. MUST... PREORDER....

Bank account: *cries*

[Camittles]

The graphics look sooo much better. It's nice to see the original touched up a bit. I wonder why they waited so long to do this? Maybe to help promote the new game?

*claps hands for Story Book*

[apti]

DO WANT.



This looks sooooo goooooooooooooooooood... I mean, JoD is good and all, but this is good in an entirely different way. AND THE STORYBOOK EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!


If this doesn't come out in the US... heads will roll. ಠ_ಠ

We better get the book too.

Now that the PS2 remake is official, may we demand a localization? Even if it doesn't come out for the Wii, the least SEGA can do is bring it to the Europe and North America.

Looks like it's coming to US, if the NTSC label is on the boxart.

I'm really looking forward now. This is like a dream come true 8D! This is all I really need ^______^. JoD is just an extra bonus to make everything sweeter.

And where does it say that ?

[DiGi Valentine]

HOLY sh!t!! CLARIS!!! O_O LOOK AT HER!! AMAZING!!


Ok. I want this now. This is about as official as it gets. Sega. Bring this baby to the UK. PLEAAAAASE!!!

[NNR07]

And where does it say that ?

Oh. Just assuming with the 'NTSC' thing. Should've clarified that >_< *does that*.

I'm going to read anyway though with a translator >>.

Edit: Yep. Nothing besides the 'NTSC' label. Sorry >.< On a more positive note, though, if you import the Limited Edition from Japan you CAN get the Storybook it seems 8D

[ayamemaiden]

Error 404! D:
*cries*

Edit: Nevermind.
I wannit. Now.

[Sa-chan]

Oh god. This is like the second coming of Jesus.

Oh god. This is like the second coming of Jesus.

But for PS2s 8D

I think this IS His 2nd coming that He was talking about 8D *SHOT*.

[ayamemaiden]

I wonder how much this deluxe edition is going to cost.

[NNR07]

I wonder how much this deluxe edition is going to cost.

Uhh... it says it's currently about.:

Usually edition: 3 and 800 Yen (including tax 3 and 990 Yen)
Limited edition: 4 and 800 Yen (including tax 5 and 040 Yen)

And, of course, shipping and etc. X_X.

Dang. That seems like alot.
What's the equivalent n US?
I'm horrible at calculating. D:

[Drannore]

I'm horrible at calculating. D:

If it is 800 yen, then it is about 8 bucks US, and slightly less than that in Canadian Monopoly Money

[NNR07]

If it is 800 yen, then it is about 8 bucks US, and slightly less than that in Canadian Monopoly Money

I thought it wasn't much.

So, they might be asking for about $10 or $13 from us?! The translation might have been wrong... but... wow, that's cheap 8D!

[kidninja]

Am I excited? "You bet kid"

[TRAViS]

US equivalent at the current exchange rates...
"4 and 800" yen = 4800 yen: $44.51
"3 and 800" yen = 3800 yen: $35.25
plus shipping, obviously.

The day this is listed on Play-Asia I'm scoring a copy for myself and figuring out the next day just how to mod my PS2

[Drannore]

I looked at the article about the game and found that the game actually costs 3,800 yen. So the grand cost for the normal version is about $38. Rats, I though that we had caught a break here. I kinda did a double-take after I typed that last post out.

I was sort of thinking "What?"

Then again, this does not change the fact that I still would have to buy a PS2 to even get this game, and then import it from Japan, which runs into more money. And I still have not softened up to the idea that it will not be on Wii. I have very high hopes that they will port it, and then it will be the only last-gen port on Wii (short of Zelda and RE4, of course, and maybe Okami) that will be worth buying.

[shadow1111111]

*sniff* Claris looks so beautiful! *sniff* This must come to America (and Europe )! There will be Sega protests if it doesn't! I must have the chance to play the original NiGHTS w/o having to buy a Saturn. If you look on the Claris image, the bottom shows that you press "triangle" to see dream data. PS2! And, ooh, 3D Pians! (sorry, but sprites inserted into 3D games bother me)

[Arkiee]

I think its very likely it'll come to the United States and (fingers crossed for me) Europe too. Look at the Yakuza fans, we kicked and screamed (Okay we didn't do either, but we did request it a lot!) for SEGA to bring the second one here after the first one was a money losing game and its planned for a 2008 release now, so hopefully with good sales of NiGHTS: JoD will booster their confidence, or fan demand, to release it here.

Although why its not on the Wii makes me ponder slightly, there is no logical explanation unless either a.) Saturn is difficult to port onto the Wii or b.) SEGA does not want the two games to clash with each other. I cannot think of any other reason, boggles my mind in fact.

[Innotech]

I told you guys this was real didnt I?

[DiGi Valentine]

Now i wonder and i put a question to you all........ what becomes of the old FMV?
Will they still use the old stuff OR (and i'm hoping highly for this) they do what they done for JoD and make it all swanky and new looking?
Imagine the old bosses having FMV scenes before them too, just for fanservice sake. Imagine seeing Jackle in FMV before the fight!! ...................... yeah, i'm getting waaaay ahead of myself there. But still....what do you reckon will become of the FMV for this game?

Re-rendered in higher resolution. That's all I really want.

[iLLViLLAiN]

I'm foaming at the mouth. Is that bad because I can't possibly die with so much happiness that has just filled up inside of my body? I feel very very strong predictions coming my way. I really do think this game is U.S. and Europe bound.

Bad translation anyone?

First Heading:NiGHTS are always in your dreams.

First Paragraph:
The world loved by the "Sonic the hedgehog" made by the staff created by the legendary action game, the NiGHTS.
Everybody is once AKOGARETA "firmament free flying like ..." a desire to realize the innovative game system and the juvenile mental growth to draw emotional drama, more than 10 years years after and yet many players虜to it.

Nostalgic Sega Saturn version of reproducing mode is also available at the time for fans of the companion, and a new touch to the "Knights of origin" to know that can be the long-awaited one.



Fourth Heading:A limited edition (NAITOPIA Dream pack) that the phantom book, "without any NiGHTS wing to fly to the sky" that ship!

Fourth Paragraph:
The original version released in the same time being released in the unique worldview of a picture book that attracted many fans of the book phantom "NiGHTS to wing did not fly to the sky".
A similar game, revived hope for a lot of fan demand, but this time, the perks included as a complete reprint. NiGHTS story of a boy and, through another "NiGHTS world" can enjoy!

*hope you can read through that somewhat comfortably. I used google translate lol.

[Maresuke]

Re-rendered in higher resolution. That's all I really want.

Have to agree with you. Though, I don't want them messing with it anymore then a face lift... and the added gallery extras.

I think it's the eyes. They're are slanty instead of big and round.
