And a bunch of thumbnail pics or something.Īnyway when I heard the sequel was coming I was stoked. Im tried to find the one I remember but I cant seem to find it, I remember the metal things from stick canyon and I believe it was talking about how only the Saturn could handle it. I loved the magazine ads for NiGHTS back in 96 they made the game look very interesting and seemed toned for a more mature audiance. Im of a similar age and basically the same backstory except for I didnt get a Saturn till 1999+, but rented a Saturn with NiGHTS multiple time around 96,97. The second time around, I'm really starting to appreciate how wonderful this game really is I'm posting this because I've been wondering if anyone else had any similar experiences with JoD. As I try my hardest to ignore all the things that bugged me about this game before, I realise.NiGHTS JoD is EXACTLY the mission pack I had been imagining in my head! If one just ignores the long tutorial sessions and godawful voiceacting, you're left with a pretty decent set of NiGHTS levels that look gorgeous and play better than the current remake! After a while, I decide to load up JoD again, just to have a look at it once more. I start to wish that somehow a mission pack of sorts would be released, or maybe even some extra levels. Nevertheless, I keep playing and I realise just how short NiGHTS into dreams was. The game is released, and I quickly notice that despite the beautiful graphics, the controls are all wrong. I sadly fell out of love with JoD, and being that I had just started a new career that year, I played through the game just a single time and never touched it again.Ģ012: SUPER excited for the rerelease of NiGHTS into dreams on xbla, I spend some time playing the original on an emulator. NiGHTS talks in a british accent, cutscenes are long and boring, that owl is EVERYWHERE and just won't shut up, and the chase mission is very different to how one would normally play NiGHTS. NiGHTS JoD arrives and at first, I'm overwhelmed by the graphics, but very quickly I become disappointed. Awesome.Ģ007 (later in the year): As soon as I heard a sequel to NiGHTS was being developed for Wii, I decided there and then I would buy that console. My fiancee starts to play it and loves the game too.

The excitement is overwhelming as I had never imagine I could ever get my hands on a copy (this was before ebay).Ģ007: While experimenting with emulators and finally having a fast enough PC, I get NiGHTS and Christmas NiGHTS running smoothly using SSF emulator. To this day it still holds that title, and as a major Sonic fan, I dare say it's better than any sonic game too.ġ999: While on holiday in the UK, I come across a "Computer Exchange" store that had Christmas NiGHTS. NiGHTS quickly becomes the best game I've ever played. My 13-year old Sonic-obsessed self just falls in love with every screenshot published in Sega Power (UK Magazine).ġ997: I get a Sega Saturn for my birthday together with NiGHTS. Long time lurker but I haven't posted in years so before I describe what I think of JoD, I thought I'd share my life-long experience with NiGHTS in this thread, so here goes:ġ996: NiGHTS into Dreams is released for the Sega Saturn.
