My pleasure! I love the reactions it's getting here, and in the YT comments. Do you have many Japanese games/systems? Maybe a video's worth? If you decide to do one and wanted to mention Super Potato, I have a handful of photos inside the shop if you want them! :)

For a long time I have been looking for a game where you suck up balls and fly around in the sky. My quest is finally over. Thank you, LGR.

Didn't know about this! Neat.

You're not missing anything special, though at the same time, because of how bad it is from a narrative perspective, it may be worth doing an LGR video of it in the future. ;)

Still haven't given the Wii version a shot, I almost don't want to since the originals still make up my entire NiGHTS experience!

Ha. Funny thing, and friend and I actually sat down to beat that game not long ago. It gets a LOT better after you get past the rings crap, I will never understand why they went with that for the intro.

If you enjoy flying through rings you should play Superman 64. it's totally cool and not terrible at all. trust me.

I used to own NID, pretty game but it made no sense to me so I sold it which i might regret later, loved it as a colorful showcase for the Saturn hardware though.

Speaking in terms of the original, NiGHTS into Dreams was amazing every step of the way, not just for its gameplay but for its visuals, its audio, and in having a very subtle story with no dialogue. Heck, the music was modular and each segment was tied into how well the denizens of each level were doing, as their lives and happiness were tracked throughout all of your gameplay.
The sequel on the Wii was about as subtle as a hammer to the face and was overcomplicated to a massive degree... didn't play too bad but after an hour of listening to bad voice acting and having story explanations I didn't need crammed down my throat I turned it off and never looked back. :P

Just Googled it. Holy cow, I can see what you mean! Kind of wish I was a game collector and that my Japanese wasn't as rusty as it is so I could appreciate it even more :)

Hey, I've been to Super Potato! And yeah this is a cool looking series I'd heard about but have never gotten around to trying.

I could totally see the resemblance to Sonic just by looking at the cover art, and even speculated that it was related to Sonic even before watching the video! I never heard of Nights before watching this.
And your Super Potato shirt is hypnotizing. And so Japanese.

Nice little video. I've always enjoyed the Nights Tie In's in the Sonic Games, but I've never actually played it... Now I need to seek it out and give it a try!
