Actually, I hope this game never sees life outside of Japan. It look horrible, you can't use the Sega characters, and I wondered at first when this was posted, once I watched the video, how many people would freak out just because NiGHTS is in it. It seems a quite pointless game.. its sucky golf made suckier to see how many pocky-eaters will buy it.. Of course, I was just saying earlier that I would probably end up owning it if it was here, so I know I'm one of those. But the more I see everyone talking about it, the more I realize this game would give me gamer cancer. I mean.. look at that damned homeslice, thinks he's thug and cool- break dancing with one pant-leg pulled up! *lol* I haven't seen that since I was in high school. What the Hell is that about? I can't help but think of Happy Gilmore:
*Shooter as the beach ball flies at him* "DAMN YOU PEOPLE, THIS IS GOLF!!"

How many of you would still enjoy this game if NiGHTS was not in it? XD Or if the caddies were a whole new group of made up characters that did generally the same thing as the Sega ones they used?

[Loren]

Omg one shot of NiGHTS u.u amazing. Well, I agree with Purg. The game looks a bit ridiculous xD Shoujo romance on a golf course, with sonic and NiGHTS, wee? No. Especially if it's silly and random like some of those dating sims. Also, why is the girl bouncing around the golf course? And you power up your club? It's a little silly.

If you're looking for a random game featuring a bit of NiGHTS, try playing the pinball over in Sonic Adventure xD

[Sierra]

I have to agree with you. I thought it was a joke at first. I hate golf, and this game looks to suck. If I ever play it, I'm sure as not gonna pay for it, and maybe only to play the NiGHTS level, if there even is one. You're totally right: If this game wasn't sega, we wouln't even know this game existed.

Now, Pian Putting, on the other hand..Now that is a game worth playing. We could even expand it into Pian Grand Prix, Pian Poaching (with cake bait) and other great titles. Can't be as bad as this game sounds.

[Ten]

I like the Pian Putting and the line it brings up. XD As for the actual game listed here? I'm weird about games, so I might end up buying it if it comes stateside just for the hell of it. If I don't like it, I'll sell it. But you never know; some games that look sucky end up being a lot better than you originally think.

[Purgatory]

Tenny, that's what I was thinking at first. That it looked really.. well crappy! But I would end up getting it just to have. But now I don't know! maybe when its extremely cheap at the GameStop. But I'm definitely not looking forward to it. What's this about 'Pians? XD Whatever it is, that sounds kind of cute.

[YamiLover13]

Mepiansssssss!

That reminds me. If we hit the pians with golf balls, would the pians have part golf part pian babies? O.O

I so want pian putting! Wonder if they would put that as some kind of mini game in NJOD. (Knowing how mini games on the Wii is a big thing now and days....)

I still wonder why this is for the PC and not the Wii, but whatever. They already have something like that for the Wii don't they?

It all started when Yamilover wondered what it would be like to play golf in soft museum. Josse replied that the ball would hit a Pian, making them steal the golf balls. I said we should use THEM as golf balls, and coined the name Pian Putting. It..kind of snowballed from there. XD

[Ten]

Golfballs hitting Pians in the faaaaaaaaace....!

[Sierra]

Does anyone have any experience programming and or knows what kind of gamemaker engine would let us make Pian Putting?
*coughofftopiccough*

It's called "Super Swing Golf", it is made by Team Ninja, the makers of the craptastic (In my opinion) DOA series.

[Golden Charm]

If the game has some NiGHTS based stages, I have three words for them...

SPRING VALLEY HATE

Seriously, imagine knocking the ball several hundred miles, onto the green, it then rolls, a direct path....its heading for the hole.
No it can't be a hole in one, yesitis, yesitis *SPROING*
Ball rolls 200 yards away after the terror of the spring hill.

No person could take that kind of suspense.
I can't even play Super Monkey Ball Golf without getting annoyed at one level XD

This is the important part of the post:

Why do I get the image of NiGHTS using his leg as the golf club?

Still, I probably won't play the game if its just a golf only thing.

And a final note, you may be dissappointed at Sega for spurning the game out, but at least it has vaious characters plugged from Sega's past instead of only focusing in ine primary character to flaunt money from people <cough> Mario golf, tennis, soccer, need I go on </cough>

At least in those games you got to be the characters! This just has no point.

Soon, GC. Soooon. That Mario and Sonic in the Olympics game is SURE TO BE A SUPER SMASH HIT!!!11ONE!! And I think they'll do more of it after that. I weep for the future.

I agree...that game sounds stupid as heck. Oh goody...more blasted mini games! What is it with the Wii and mini games now and days?! ARG! If they put mini games in the new NiGHTS game....oi....

[Purgatory]

I'm more concerned with the pairing of Mario and Sonic and how a 40+ fatass plumber could beat a super athletic animal.

Give me an excuse to make a mockery of the fat man. lol

But yes, Mario and Sonic is strange. I didn't mind the rumor of Sonic being in the new Smash Brothers game for the Wii because it would mean Sonic can kick Mario's butt. To put them in the olympics though....no, just no. Knowing Nintendo they are going to make them both have similar speed. (Which is so not true!)

Lets hope we don't see Sonic get teamed up in another game with Mario. A thought just crossed my mind. I have heard rumors of KH3 having Mario in it. They wouldn't dare think of putting Sonic there too would they? Nah...its just a stupid rumor anyways.

This Sega golf is making me question the brains over there at Sega...

[Golden Charm]

At least in those games you got to be the characters! This just has no point.

I'm sorry, but when it comes to cash cows, controlling the character doesn't really buy me over. I'd rather more pointless characters in a pointless game than controlling a few more famous ones in a different pointless game.

Though the fact remains...it IS a pointless game XD

Soon, GC. Soooon. That Mario and Sonic in the Olympics game is SURE TO BE A SUPER SMASH HIT!!!11ONE!! And I think they'll do more of it after that. I weep for the future.

I saw that and thought it was in the twilight zone...I too will weep with eyes of waterfalls.

The only good thing about this game (and I do not stress the word good in any way, shape or form) is the little fact that it is a Sonic & Mario Olympics...

Yes, that means we will not get Mario/Sonic Sprint and Mario/Sonic Pole vault separately, but the creators were actually generous to put them all on the one disc. *Phew*

[Lavos]

Fourth...next there will be Tenneis, soccer, bowling, DDR, stripping, cooking---Wait WHAT?! (Seriously no Sega. Please don't...)

COOKiNG MAMA into Dreams?

(credit goes to my sister )

[YamiLover13]

COOKiNG MAMA into Dreams?
(credit goes to my sister )

NiGHTS makes a really cute cooking mama. O.O

But oh god if they did that...lol. I would love to see NiGHTS eyes light up in flames!

[NOTiC]

because all we ever wanted was to play as NiGHTS in a golf game :|

[Innotech]

I bit the bullet and preordered Mario/sonic Olympics. Im sutre it will be fun and its Sega and miyamoto working together. that spells win for me. I was always a fan of both while most people were choosing sides. Although I only ever owned Nintendo systems due to lack of money (and even then most of them long after launch).

[Sairus]

I didn't mind the rumor of Sonic being in the new Smash Brothers game for the Wii because it would mean Sonic can kick Mario's butt. To put them in the olympics though....no, just no.

What if there was a kickboxing event? XD

As for this golf game... I would have been more than happy to buy it if it had been on the Wii... it looks like decent enough craic. But on the PC?! Who in their right mind would buy this? o_O

[DiGi Valentine]

Can i just say that COOKiNG MAMA into Dreams would be a bloody great Christmas present for our darling TRiPPY. Not only will she get her fix of 'NiGHTS related gaming' but she'll also learn how to cook up a 3 course meal. ...... "love you, boo!"

Also, after thinking about it...this golf game will most probably suck a tad. I was playing Wii Sports this morning and realised that even though golf is relaxing compared to smacking some dudes face in the boxing game, having a WHOLE game dedicated to just golf alone will blow a chunky. However, if it was a selection of games then i'd be more for it.

....how much you wanna bet that even though i said all that, if they release this thing over here i'll still end up buying the sh!t? XD;;;

[Purgatory]

you wanna bet that even though i said all that, if they release this thing over here i'll still end up buying the sh!t? XD;;;

And as much as I b**ch, I've been occasionally saying that this whole time. Why, Richard? Why do you do these things..

[Inubu]

I thought you were messin with us!I wonder if NiGHTS is any good at being a caddie.....I gotta see it for myself.Anyone have this game and can put it up on Youtube with NiGHTS as your caddie?

[PurpleKOGA]

OMG!!! IT HAS ULALA!! YESS!! But she's on her Sonic Riders board...Man, don't you think with legs like a cricket she could run? OR maybe she could use her back pack. This game is so cool I'm gonna buy it just for all the SEGA character cameos! The kids in this should be the new Kevin and Helen. XD

[KiloTango]

Ahaha, it has Opa-Opa in it!

(How in the hell would he be able to do anything with a golf club?)

[Zero 22]

Hahahah awesome pic

Who knows maybe?

[viperxmns]

What a tweest..

[KittyWhiggles]

Cool. I was like in shock when i saw the intro....Well not really, but its cool though ^^

[Purgatory]

I'd forgotten all about this horrible nightmare... and now... its back.. Thanks, guys... Thank you......


*lol*

[iLLViLLAiN]

WTF did I just watch? 0.0

[YamiLover13]

I was just thinking about this the other day. Has it come out yet? Just curious.

[Pikmingirl]

<a href="http://sega.jp/topics/080408_2/" target="_blank">http://sega.jp/topics/080408_2/</a>
Our little nightmaren is appearing yay!
If you scroll down, you will notice the pictures that has... Well NiGHTS. Not only that but it looks like he is playable.



Sega is going sport-ish. Awesome. XD

A game for the Window PC? Maybe. I think it might be old, but I haven't noticed this game till now.
I have no idea if this was posted but I didn't see it, soo...

What do you think?

I think you need a Japanese Browser to play or something. It gives me errors so far.

[Nemoide]

The article seems to be saying that it came out on April 23? Odd for them to be using old-style NiGHTS then.
I know a little Japanese and can say that on http://splashgolf.jp/ "Step 1" is a link to download the game. I do not run Windows so I cannot give it a try but I think someone should! For step 2, I do not know the kanji used but is presumably for registration maybe? When I click on it it tells me to use a Japanese-enabled browser but I do not know how to make my browser more Japanese-enabled than it already is?

Hopefully someone can figure this out!

[Pikmingirl]

I'll see where and if I can download and I'll try to get some snapshots if it's successful.

Edit: Eep, sorry about that. XD It's back from the graaave~

[Jof]

We had a topic for this a good while ago, so I'm gonna merge them.

[Pikmingirl]

Ah sweet! It's downloading, pretty slow, but I think it's worth it, anything for a NiGHTS game. XD 64% Pics pics pics!

EDIT: all I see is pure darkness and nothing pops up. Awww
