:lol QFT and it's not even the same game.

Yeah, but having the original on one console and the sequel on another is even weirder. >_>

Unless the original comes to the Wii as well, but I see no mention of it.

I don't mind, I own a PS2. Just seems weird. :D

thats what Ive been saying. It makers zero sense to put one on Ps2 and then the sequel on Wii. Maybe if it was on Ps2 a long time ago, but thats not the case. Unless this is more of that Sega logic.

Wow..the style theyre using for NiGHTs into dreams is well..

They should have used a downgraded NiGHTs Wii engine.

This is my opinion though..

Fans might actually like the old style with upgraded graphics.

PS2 Sengoku Basara 2 8777
Wii Sengoku Basara 2 8878

Any reason why the Wii version is better?

Thought. What if Sega were to do a high quality PS2 remake of Panzer Dragoon Saga along the same lines as what they're doing here with NiGHTS into Dreams? Mmm.

It makes perfect sense. The timing of the announcement is odd from a business standpoint, but the platform choice is solid.

Yup. If the Wii game bombs, this being a port (remake) it would be easier to recoop losses from the Ps2. Unless the Ps2 game bombs too. Then SEGA are just screwed.

Yeah, but why not just port it to the Wii as well? Twice the chance of making some money.

Holy shit, why do you keep jumping on me? I don't mind, I'm just trying to find the logic behind it.

Anyways, a remake of Panzer Dragoon Saga is hoping a little too hard. Although it would be nice for those of us who did own a Saturn but never got PDS for obvious reasons.

You're trying to find the LOGIC behind there not being a SEQUEL TO PANZER DRAGOON SAGA ON THE WII??!

Cool. I never got EO1, but I'll try to get the sequel before it's sold out. Btw. the prequel was released :

JP January 18, 2007
NA May 15, 2007

Does this mean we can expect the sequel to come around June / July in NA?

This is you.
Why cant niGHTS be on Wii? Why do we ask that? Well maybe because the sequels on there. It kind of, you know, makes sense to put the original out there for people wjho havent played it so they might be interested in the sequel. Or do you think thats just a foolish idea?
Yeah theres alot of ports on the Wii, but isnt this one of those rare games everyone WANTS ported to as many systems as possible? I mean shit, Im still saving us som I can buy a old Saturn JUST so I can play this game the way it was originally intended. And Ill probably buy the Ps2 version, but my point is that it would have been a good business decision to put it out alongside the sequel.

Why isn't it on the Xbox? the Dreamcast? the DS? the PSP? the 360? the PS3? You could ask all those questions and more

I think he means that since the sequel is on the Wii, it would make sense that the original was there was well.

Which would have made sense.

exactly. I mean I could understand if NJOD didnt exist and then it would be grasping at straws to want NID on the Wii, but I have a very legitimate point here. If the sequels going to be there, why not put out the original, like how nintendo has put out SMB3 so people could understand GalaxY? Its called marketing. And they could make money off sales of the original in a whole new package. Win/win.

Sega wants to release a remake of the original Nights yet doesn't want it to compete with the sequel. So they release it on the most popular console of last gen that is still alive and all the Wii owners probably already have. It makes perfect sense

Eteric and Innotech aren't viewing this from a sales-age point of view.

But from a SA point of view, wouldn't it makes sense to have the original on both?

Same with the sequel.

Not perfect sense, but good enough for me I guess.

Ps2 owners snubbed Okami. you dont think they would leave niGHTS to die too?
Its an even more niche type of game. Its not nearly as marketable today.

The timing of the announcement is almost as bad as the announcement of the RE4 Ps2 port, from a business standpoint.

NiGHTS Remake on the PS2!

Fragile being co-developed by tri-Crescendo and the Venus & Braves team!

Now all tri-Crescendo needs to do is collaborate one more time with Monolith and make the sequel to the most underrated RPG last gen.

Make it happen, TC and Nintendo.

Lobster said:
Yeah no, that I can understand. Announcing a Ps2 port before the GC version released most likely affected the GC games sales.
Uh huh, it's probable, and? What does that have to do with a NiGHTS into Dreams remake for PS2?

At the moment tri-Crescendo is collaborating with a much better team who was responsible for a much better, and much more underrated, RPG.

Wow at Assassin's Creed scores. Despite those high scores it'll probably still sell like crap. I'd wonder how Japanese gamers could ignore such a high scoring game, but NA gamers do it all the time too with JRPGs like Persona 3.

Maybe we'll be surprised and it'll be a psudo breakout hit like GTA.

Everything is tsundere to me
Tri-Crescendo + Venus&Braves team = MASSIVE HEADSPLODE :D

While Venus & Braves is a great game, BKO still comes out on top.

But maybe that was just a fluke. Trusty Bell wasn't all that special.
