If NiGHTS is on ANY other console, I'll bet you a cookie and blue chips that it will NOT sell well. The group who will buy this game are NOT going to spend $400-600 on a videogame console...just think about it.


I'm pretty sure 1/2 of the fandom MIGHT. I would.

I know for the PS3/360 sequel, I MIGHT buy it.... if it sounds good. I don't want NiGHTS to become the next Sonic, though; Just another licensed character that SEGA can use to get more money.

You mean NiGHTS is for poor people?


That's not what I'm saying at all. I'm saying that, in truth, CHILDREN are going to buy this game. "LEET HAXORZ" that are willing to spend their savings on a game system will buy Final Fantasy games and the such. NiGHTS appeals to the Wii audience, and about 1-5% of the X-box 360 and PS3 audience.

Edit: Oops, I see what you're saying. I meant the audience who will buy this game other than us fans. Casual gamers.

Well there is NiGHTS: Twilight Adventure for the 360. Shall we demand a Wii port? =3

YES.

Actually, I'm curious about TA. Imma hoping they do wait a year or 11 for that one, though. Let JoD sink in x3. BUT, I see a 'To Be Continued' thing at the end of JoD.

I'm not sure there'll be a "To Be Continued" ending, but Sega would have to be totally and completely daft to pass up this chance for another franchise.

It's a score attack game, that's the very definition of hardcore gaming. It won't appeal to casuals unless the gameplay is fundamentally changed.

Because people with microsoft or sony consoles only like 'hardcore' games. Yep. ;)


I never said that. It's just that MOST (over 50%) of them are all fanboys/girls and bash anything that doesn't have good graphics, blood and/or sex in it.

It's rather annoying.

I always thought the opposite. Casual gamers seem to like simple pick-up-and-play games while hardcore gamers tend of go for epic games that take hours or even days to complete. Just look at the Wii library of mini-game collections or the popularity of the old Pac-Man games.

I know. There are not as many little kids playing video games anymore. It seems to be people at least 13 and older and American media has made things to where only stuff with violence and sex are cool. So yeah....woo America. You have made everyone narrowminded. >.< In fact, I have a feeling NiGHTS might sell better in Japan than America.

As for everyone calling NiGHTS gay, just ignore it. When someone says that they are insulting themself because they can't come up with a better vocabulary word other than to use a word in a slang term that doesn't even mean what they are talking about and insults. I mean, how do you think gay people feel now that the word gay is used to display something that looks stupid or gender confusing. Actually they call NiGHTS gay because he is purple (which seems to usually mean gay if a guy wears it but not all the time.) and they can't tell what gender he is thus confusing and scarying them so much that they must insult him in order to make them feel better. Actually, gay is not an insult because it means happy. NiGHTS is very very gay from the looks of things. He is a very cheerful character. Thank you all for noticing. Now go play your Halo or something. ;)

Always think of that and you will not get mad at people saying gay anymore.

Also, it would really suck if Sega decides to make a new NiGHTS game only every decade. O.O

I'm waiting on a 3rd GunStar game, so it's story can finish up. Only 2 game and thats between a 10 year span. Hopefully if SEGA wants to make more NiGHTS games they wont go this route.

...tons? ...of story? ...have?!

Yes, I have. And...I liked the gameplay, but...the story was kinda just 'meh'. I saw it as more of an excuse for them to blow things up than really a story.

seriously Im going to have a 360 eventuaklly and Id buy a 360 NiGHTS anyway by default, but I just htink it would be a sales flop and hurt Segas financial situation that much more.

I don't want NiGHTS to be a franchise. I can see a bunch of games, yes, but not like Sonic or Mega Man is a franchise. And certainly not like Mario (one real game, 50 sport/ part games per console).

It would be a rip-off if SEGA waited eleven years for a sequel to NiGHTS, then made fifty-million games in the blink of an eye because JoD sold well. It would hurt the integrity.

Why do you think we're all hanging out on a board that requires no membership fees? XD

Also, back on the note of motion controls for the game... from what we've seen of the game so far it plays virtually identically to the original , so even without the Wiimote or Sixaxis, this game should still be fun to play. This seems to be one of the major points people hide behind with regards to a port and I feel it's a little hollow...
I do agree however that the demographic tha plays the Wii are more likely to play NiGHTS than that of the 360/PS3... though the PS3 guys would probably play anything at this stage, just to have more than 4 games available... XD

=3 the funny.

I guess Sony needs to lower the price, so people will actually BUY the system, then people will start making games for it! I mean, no offense, I'd LOVE to have one (I'd probably just buy Sonic '06 then be like "this sucks! I'm gonna go play my Wii", but still) but I'm still a N-Fanboy, and I don't exactly have $600 to throw around.

*all directed at the sneakysegaforumember* I don't want NiGHTS to be turned into a colorless, storyless, piece-of-ubercrap game for the oh-so-lovely 360, ok? Stay with Nintendo, Sega, for the love of all nightmares. ;;' And do NOT do to Reala what you did to Shadow, I will personally murder every Sega employee if you do.

Come now, don't be rude! ^_^

Really though, I wouldn't mind seeing a 360 version of JoD released. After all, a lot of people don't own a Wii or don't want to, and many of these people are fans of NiD. Forcing NiD fans to buy a Wii simply to play JoD just seems like a poor strategy on Sega's part. Expanding on multiple consoles allows for an expanded market for consumers who aren't willing to buy consoles just for the opportunity of playing one game. ^_^ This might conflict with what you guys think, but thats just my opinion. I for one am not going to buy a Wii just to play JoD, especially when I dislike a lot of the games exclusively available for the Wii.
