so...it's been about 11 years since the original sega saturn game's release. about time a sequel came along.

though I've never played the first game, let alone owned a saturn...

You're right, Fukahi, it DOES look a bit childish. But at the same time, it also looks kind of fun. Heh, Sonic Team should use this game's engine to revive Sonic X-Treme.

and they should get most, if not all, of the original x-treme team members involved in it, though the majority of them don't work at sega anymore.

with this generation of consoles, everything done in the original is still possible but to a better extent than what the saturn was capable of, no pre-rendered sprites, etc.

the hype for x-treme has been revived. this is sega's chance to redeem themselves for releasing trash like sonic 06 and shadow the hedgehog which were swamped with bad publicity.

what I hate is that everything would have to be changed to suit today's sonic (post-sonic adventure).

pardon tri-post, but...

...word's out that sega is delaying this to 2008.

for once, sega made a good decision. rushing games out the door was what screwed the sonic series over. they probably know better than to fuck around with nights. imagine all of the angry fans...

Actually, as far as I'm concerned, Next-Gen Sonic is the main game that suffered from rushed development. It was so rushed, that they didn't even have time to add in the "Super Gem", which allowed Sonic to transform into Super Sonic at any stage. It was supposed to've been unlocked after getting all S-Ranks, or whatever.

Anyway, about NiGHTS I think the game looks promising, after seeing the trailer. Since I actually have a Wii now, I might consider buying it.

and the japanese original dreamcast version of sonic adventure. i've heard of it being glitched to hell.

come to think of it, sonic got rushed even during the genesis days. hence why they weren't able to keep HPZ in sonic 2.

"Time issues and overall fun factor have been stated as reasons for cutting the level."

You have a point. Also, according to one of Tikal's unused voice clips, Super Sonic was originally intended to be playable in Sonic Adventure, just as he was in the Genesis games.

...

I've always been confused as to whether or not NiGHTS was a male or female, but after hearing the voice in that video, it's probably safe to assume that it's a female.

Or then again, Mega Man's a guy, yet he still sounded like a girl in Mega Man 8 and X4...

and how are the emulators working for you?? if you achieved even decent running saturn emulation, you must have a good PC then.

nintendo is struggling with the supply and demand of the wii, so they're always selling out fast.

i had the opportunity to get one, but they were already sold out up here at the time.

it's been said that nintendo make all the decisions on what stores gets their wii supply restocked, and the stores have no power in their decisions...so yeah, i'm screwed for this season.

"Sonic team does it again, screws up old series, makes great music and cinematics tho!"

Also.

"You thought you'd get to play the original NiGHTs on your Ps2 atleast? Think no further as it is japan only! Seeing how no one in the states wants to play a crummy old game it seems! In other news, they're STILL selling those retarded ports of pacman to the PS2. What a waste!"

Sonic team is the worst. I mean really.

Why not let those geniuses who made F-zero GX make us some NiGHTs? They got everything right, after all, when they made games that were all about SPEED and PRECISION.

The original NiGHTs game is only in Japan, you say? That's quite a shame, because I was kinda looking forward to playing it, since I never got the chance to play it back then, when it was released on the Saturn. Sheesh, talk about bad marketing decisions. This is the worst they've made, since Sonic Gems Collection.

appearently sega dosen't want to release the port overseas because there isn't enough demand.

also, JoD sold horribly in both US and JP.
