Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing

Sumo Digital are saying they're listening to the fans as much as possible when they were putting the cast in to this however i don't know how many people from our fanbase actually left any comments anywhere (other than here) saying they would like NiGHTS in. I know this might sound silly but maybe we've become too used to having NiGHTS as a cameo/side character that we just don't think to even ask for him anymore.
So, i don't know if it will help much (considering the game is due release early 2010) and they're probably set on their cast now anyway but if for the sake of making sure Sumo Digital know we want NiGHTS in this perhaps we should actually tell them ourselves.
Here's their contact details - if you feel it might help then contact them and let them know.
Lol, it would probably be our luck that Sega decides not to use NiGHTS anymore for some reason or another.

Here's what I've got-
To whom it may concern,
I am an avid Sega fan and look forward to Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing. The variety of characters announced is incredible, and it looks like it will be an excellent follow up to the great Sega Superstars Tennis. However, one of my favourite Sega characters, NiGHTS from NiGHTS into Dreams, has not yet been announced. NiGHTS has many fans, and we all would be overjoyed if he made an appearance.
Any thoughts?

I wonder what it'd be like if you could play as Wizeman in this game? Like, what would his special move be, and better yet, what would his vehicle be like?
His vehicle would be a purple and gold convertible, known simply as BADASS.
His special attack would make him win instantly, and it would be called
HELLS YEAH.

He wouldn't have a car, Wizeman's just that cool. His special move whould destoy the racers, along with this eyesore of a course! Muahahahahaaha!I wonder what it'd be like if you could play as Wizeman in this game? Like, what would his special move be, and better yet, what would his vehicle be like?

To whom it may concern,
First of all, I would like to say that you guys did a wonderful job on Sega Superstars Tennis. I enjoyed it very much, and I was ecstatic when you had Reala from NiGHTS Journey of Dreams say "There is no NiGHTS!" for the Nintendo DS version of the game. Thank you for listening to the fans!
Second of all, I would like to comment on the character line-up for All-Stars Racing. I think its an star studded line up with some of the best heavy hitters of SEGA family. I know there are more characters yet to be announced, however, one of my personal SEGA favorites, NiGHTS, has either not yet been announced or won't be. NiGHTS has many fans, many of us are all gathered together on the NiGHTS into Dreams fansite, discussing this game feverishly, and wondering, "will NiGHTS (and maybe Reala. dreaming of Jackle) make it into this game?". We would all be extremely happy and overjoyed if he made it onto the game. We all hope he makes it into the game and wait anxiously for this game.
Thank you for taking the time to this email from one of your many fans.
Yours Truly,
Kellie Davidson
I hope they actually take the time to read it. >.<

'Subject: Please use NiGHTS for All Stars Racing!
Message: Hello there, I am quite interested in Sumo's upcoming game, 'Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing'. I've heard you've been listening to fan input on which characters should be in the game, so I'm taking the time to let you know that there is a community of 1000+ members strong that would very much love to see the character NiGHTS as a playable character. Both him and Reala were in Sega Superstars Tennis, so we've been pretty optimistic about their appearance in this title as well. NiGHTS is a beloved Sega character, and you would be remiss not to include him in the playable roster. They haven't been announced yet, so we're just a bit concerned. Okay, that's all I wanted to say, thank you for listening!'

Still, if NiGHTS is in it i'll be happy. Just a shame they can't use their whole catalogue because they want to keep 'funny' and 'serious' seperate. In Smash Bros Brawl did they change their minds about putting someone like Snake from Metal Gear Solid in to the game at the fear of him being too serious? NOPE! In fact it gave the game series a new slant of humor, having such a serious character fighting off all these cartoon-esque characters.
*sigh*
Well, i'm going to Summer of Sonic convention this weekend. The developers will be there so i'm going to see if i can have a word with them. Lol, like that'll do anything anyway but still.

Crazy Taxi... serious? I'd understand no Daytona but no Crazy Taxi is poo poo.
Haha! Well put! You'd think Crazy Taxi would be a given in this, though. Maybe it's insanity enough to sneak past security.

Great job with the emails, everyone. NiGHTS fans are so awsome.
#176
Posted 26 August 2009 - 07:41 AM
Crazy Taxi probably has a chance but i dunno, who knows. I just wish they would check the whole SEGA catalogue rather than the kiddy-happy characters. There's so much stuff they could use and they've got the development time to make it all happen too. They shouldn't be restricting themselves.
As for your emails to Sumo, that's looking good. I feel NiGHTS will be in it but it's better to be safe than sorry, init

"Hello,
Quick intro - I'm the producer on Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing. Thanks for your mail about NiGHTS.
When picking the characters for the game we made a big initial list first based on our desires, then added in feedback from SST we've been in many, many fan forums to do this!) and we then sent the proposed list to Sega. They added a few of their own I can tell you!
Given I've got a finite amount of time and budget we've had to limit this list down to the ones we can do in time- so whilst I can't promise NiGHT or Reala will have made it into the final cut - we do believe we've got a number of fan pleasers in there. However, we're under strict instructions not to say who at this point...
Keep an eye on the web though. Sega plan to release more details about who you're likely to be playing in the final game over the run up to release!
Best,
Steve"
Hrm..

"...so whilst I can't promise NiGHT or Reala will have made it into the final cut - we do believe we've got a number of fan pleasers in there. However, we're under strict instructions not to say who at this point..."
I get a disinct "There is no NiGHTS" vibe from this. However, from alll of the beating around the bush, the shrubbery is in a rather dreadful condition.
"Keep an eye on the web though. Sega plan to release more details about who you're likely to be playing in the final game over the run up to release!"
This seems hopeful, though.
The bad grammar makes me want to scream. Did you copy it directly, or type it yourself?

Yeah, if Big is in this and not NiGHTS, that makes me *facepalm*.. no sense of priority..
#181
Posted 27 August 2009 - 12:32 AM
Anyway, its very disheartening yet it keeps me hopeful at the same time. Why do you do this to me SEGA?

Sumo Digital is making the game, why are you blaming Sonic Team? They've done nothing!Wow! They were going to put Big the Retarded Obese Cat in but not NiGHTS! HAHAHA...
F--- YOU, SONIC TEAM.
On SSMB I think I've seen quite a number of Big fans, actually. Though there were also a lot of people wondering what he was doing here...In all seriousness, who even LIKES Big? No one I know does.

Posted 27 August 2009 - 10:56 AM
ugh
The one game i've been waiting my whole life to play could potentialy be ruined by my favourite character being cut. And for what? Big the sodding Cat's place?
Summer of Sonic convention this weekend just got a whole lot more patriotic for me now. Sumo are going to be there and i'll be damned if i don't get my point across about this fanbase >.<

KEEP EMAILING :|
And remember it's not a definate yes or a no, so please be civil with your emails. Rudeness will get you nowhere.
</mumhatoff>
Failing that we can complain for years to come. We done it for 12 years previous.
#188
Posted 27 August 2009 - 12:28 PM
Please email Sumo Digital with a polite email telling them the NiGHTS fanbase is still sitting here for a reason - because we want NiGHTS. Let'a try and make sure NiGHTS does get in to this game because he deserves his right to be there with the rest. Sega ain't Sega without NiGHTS, no matter how many Sonics you throw at us.
Get mailing

But that don't really count. This is a NiGHTS forum, of course people are going to want NiGHTS. He said they went to many forums to check the feedback from SST, but here I don't think there was a lot of discussion or feedback about SST's roster, aside from NiGHTS and Reala, but as I said, coming from a NiGHTS forum, that don't count.....that doesn't sound good. They've been to many fan forums, have they? Ooooo i dunno, have they been here at all maybe? Had a chat with us, did they? Ask us how we feel about the game they're making?
And as far as I know, no developers go to other forums to directly ask for people's opinions. At least I've never seen that.
#190
Posted 27 August 2009 - 03:05 PM
So, in regards to this whole situation, if you care enough about NiGHTS then email Sumo. I don't want to see NiGHTS phased out for other SEGA characters. That won't be fair at all.

I'm glad they came here to talk to us themselves. It takes a lot of guts to do a thing like that. Lol, especially with a fanbase as crazy as ours. Remember, it's always the quiet ones XD
But, no. Seriously, it was nice of them to answer. Shows that they're doing a fairly good job. I'll still be flippin' mad if NiGHTS ain't in this game but you can't be mad at Sumo since they actually cared enough to come here and talk to us directly. Good show, Sumo. Good show

I liked Big. Then I played as him in SA...In all seriousness, who even LIKES Big? No one I know does. He's an awful, annoying Sonic character and has no place anywhere in any video game or other media production EVER.
A cake?guess what i'm just about to make now...
Don't worry, DiGi. We'll have your face bronzed.Well, i'll be seeing Sumo face to face on Saturday. Most likely i'll have my face ripped off and handed to me but HEEEEY! I DO IT FOR NiGHTS AND HIS FANS!!!

right, stop using that bloody psychic powers, it's freaking me out and i don't like it!
and lol we at least got noticed it's a shame we had to bother them so much despite the fact their list couldn't be changed, but well, we're NiGHTS fans, we fight for what we believe in!
