This is one recurring rumor we'd rather not toss away, instead warmly embracing it and gently scratching behind its furry little ears. Unfortunately, much like realizing the kitten in your hands is actually a squirrel infected with rabies, the truth about a sequel to NiGHTS may just upset you. And tear your face clean off.
If you follow the dubious rumor treasure trail, you're bound to end up at a Wii release list published on Japanese website, G-rev. Stashed between Animal Crossing and a Naruto game is the tantalizing mention of NiGHTS (or Naitsu), though no accompnaying release date can be found. It could be a remake, a sequel or an elaborate dance interpretation -- or a complete fabrication.
Is the modern Sega even capable of producing a good follow-up to NiGHTS? Would Wii controls shine through the possible dreck of NiGHTS 2: Into Dwiims, now with fly-by shootings and a talking rabbit? Perhaps, but they'll have to make the game before we know. www.joystiq.com/2007/01/03/rumorang-nights-returning-on-the-wii/

Can't wait. Now all they need to do is put the Saturn game up on the Virtual Console to hype up the game to those unfamiliar with the greatness of Nights. I haven't played it in a decade.

I'm not eagerly awaiting this game but I am excited to play it. A delay isn't so bad especially with all the other games I want.

Dead in the water. They're putting it out like a week after Smash Bros now, supposedly.

Bad move. January/February would've been perfect.

I don't really know who NiGHTS is for. You get the minority Wii owner in the NiGHTS fanboys which there aren't really a lot of, they are just very vocal. The game really is for an older audience that loves retro games, it's not a modern day franchise anymore.

It's gonna bomb. It's one of the most obscure games ever, if the original was as good as the internet makes it out to be, the Saturn wouldn't have bombed.

NiGHTS was a blast 10 years ago. It's still a fun game, but it's not a franchise anymore. Bring the original and Christmas NiGHTS to the VC, that's good enough.

I love NiGHTS by the way, but I'm just saying. The thing was gonna bomb regardless of release date.

Oh, it was definitely a good game, but Sega should've left NiGHTS in the past. No, you know what, SegaSammy should just file chapter 11.

I really hope it turns out to be a good game, because the franchise had some amazingly cool potential, but it's not Sega anymore. It's a pachinko company pretending to be Sega.

Well, from what I've heard it's pretty much and unchanged game. The game didn't even use motion controls at TGS, although IGN was reporting that they said they are working on other control schemes.

You know they're going to do something to fuck it up. It'll either be really glitchy, or they'll make you piss around with fishing minigames to get 100%. Probably both.

Welp....I picked it up today. It's actually kinda fun. Not as ground breaking as the Saturn version, but it gets the job done. NiGHTS has lost most of it's appeal, especially since Mario Galaxy even pulls off the feel of flying much better.

Best Sega game since the Dreamcast era. I was so afraid going into it but it's better than I EVER could've imagined.
