Or whoever collects the most blue chips in a certain amount of time wins.
I like the idea of collecting all the blue balloons though.

Heh, thanks, but I was kinda making fun of Sonic R. Your idea sounds better though. ">

I knew what you meant, but that still sounds like someone could have fun with it.

I, for example, had fun with the Sonic R balloon race. :)

Darnit. I was hoping there would be vehicles in this game. Now it's gonna suck, I just know it.

Yowza. Pretty good find there, Abac. Very informative indeed. I'll be sure to keep an eye on that website.

Found this at the GHZ Forum
Page 1

Page 2

Apparently Claris and Elliot are back and Reala is the main bad guy(similar to the second Archie Comics mini series.)

Today's gamer: This Reala guy is a rip of of Shadow!
Reala: But I came first!
Today's gamer: And these Nightopians are obvious rip offs of Chao!
Reala: But they came first too!!! <_<

...

*Even later still into the apparent future*

Today's gamer: This Fang the Sniper is a rip off of Shadow & Rouge! I mean, Shadow is the only character that should get a gun and ride on vehicles! SEGA isn't original anymore! I shall denounce this new character like I did with those annoying Chaotix!
Fang: But I came...oh forget it. -_-

"Sonic is such a ripoff from Shadow!" is an argument that, unfortunately and illogically, I've seen used a few times.

Ahem. I'll lurk in the shadows for more information. This might give me a push into buying a Wii in the future. Only time will tell.

Earlier someone had said the cover picture of Nights made it appear as if he was playing an invisible flute, and I agree. I thought the position of his hands looked pretty odd, but I was just going through my Nights wallpapers (obtained from the game disc itself back when games were awesome like that) and found a similar image. I believe it's the same image that was used as a "connect the dots" to hint towards this game.

Anyway, the difference is that with the old image Nights is looking into the distance as sort of a, "I'm about to fly thata way!" gesture. In the new one it he's looking directly at us, which I think makes his hand gestures seem odd.

Yes, it's nothing important, but this topic hasn't seen a responce in two days. Two whole days!

That is all.

Heck yea man. I know how that is. There's this message board about Virtual On i'm trying to keep alive. It's tough, it's just me and this other guy there talking. Stll it's living. =P Anyway to get on topic. Have you ever played Nights, 32x? I think i'm going to buy a SS 3D controller and Nights... this summer. I figure if I played the original first i'll appreciate the new one even more. Most likely. =P

Yeah I have Nights and the Christmas sampler. I still play them from time to time, and kind of have a tradition of playing Christmas Nights around Christmas time. It's an awesome game. Good luck finding it for a decent price on Ebay though. I've seen the game go for more than a Saturn itself. But it would be totally worth it if you can snag them before Journey into Dreams releases.

As for 32x, I've played one before but don't have one, even though I do own Knuckles Chaotix, heh.

Yea i've seen Nights on ebay for about $25.99, which to me isn't that bad for such a unique game you know. Then Christmas Nights i've seen on there but I don't recall the price. The darn 3D controller is like $30, but I could sacrifice a new Wii title for those. =P

Hahha this is funny...i'm rereading my post and I didn't actually mean to ask you if you've played a 32x, I just couldn't remember the Ducttaped part of your name so I used 32x for short. Hahah, funny. But yea I think I will look for Nights and a 3D controller(seperately, because i've seen a combo with them both for as much as $99.00!!) And I also thought combos were the cheaper method. =P

Haha, no that's my bad. I read that wrong. I'm just used to people calling me "DT" or "Duct."

Wow, $99 is rediculous. I would honestly look for "lot" sales, so that you have more than just one game for Saturn, but that's me.

This game has so much potential that it scares me how easily it could be botched. But at the same time, it would be a lovely breath of fresh air.

Next up, an upgraded Ristar...

That's outrageous. I got my copy of NiGHTS, with 3D controller and an RF cable (for a buck or so extra), for about $5-10. Whoever's asking $99 is trying to trick you into thinking that, since games like Panzer Dragoon Saga, Guardian Heroes or Radiant Silvergun are damned expensive, all Saturn games must be (which is NOT the case by a long shot).

EDIT: Sadly, looking things over, it seems that NiGHTS price has risen to the $50 mark while I wasn't looking. Which is outrageous, because the game is NOT RARE. Well, guess I'm glad to have bought my copy when I did!

Well I do have Sonic, R, UMK3, and VOOM and I don't really plan on havin gmany games for my SS, but "lot" sales sound nice. Of copurse if I still my PS2 I could just get the Sega Ages later volumes that have alot of Saturn games. =/ But yea dude I know the game isn't rare, these people should be arrested. And you say it's risen to $50! Geez, obviously some people are playing economics. The word of a sequel has sparked demand for the original...so the producer[Ebay auctioner*] will raise the price knowing that the cosumer[Ebay auctionee*] is willing to buy it for so many dollars more than it was previously stated for. $5-10 for all of that stuff, SH? When did you get all of this? It must've been when Saturn stuff wasn't as hard to find(as it is now atleast) like in the late 90s.

More like 2003/2004 or so, actually. Even THEN, Panzer Dragoon Saga was expensive as all hell. I guess I'm glad that it hasn't risen particularly in price?

Man and to think I didn't want a Saturn back when they first came out. As expensive as they were then, it doesn't even coem close to what you'd have to pay out now. >_<

Yeah, my roommates keeps telling me I should sell my copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga to pay for rent. No chance.

I'd buy it. o.o

Well, if I had any semblance of an income, that is. In the meantime, I'll cheap out, pirate a copy and play it on SSF. Not as nice as owning an actual copy, but functional!

Haha! You will never find all four discs successfully. I have scattered them to the four corners of the world!

I wouldn't take your copy without paying for it, nor without your consent, so I don't think you have anything to fear from me.

Although if you separated all four discs to separate parts of the world, it must be a pain in the ass to actually play it. Unless you're, like, Indiana Jones or something, but then you'd have other things on your mind (partly because you'd be a college professor, and partly because it'd be the 1930s).

Haha "...pain in the ass to play..." No kidding, DT, exactly how do you play it. lol Are you Indiana? Speaking of which, isn't there a new IJ coming out wither this year or next?

I have a space station circling the globe, and a special magnet that attracts only those four discs, so that whenever I want to play them I just turn the magnet on. It's Super Science.

I don't see how that's possible, since there's nothing special physically about the discs themselves. You'd probably suck up every other disc on the planet if that were really how you went about things.

MAN are we off-topic.

That's why it's called "Super" Science. It's far too complex to explain on a mere message board.

And yes, we are entirely off-topic, but no one has yelled at us yet, so theres nothing fear.

XDXD! There's a "Super" Science to us being off topic and getting away with it. =P Let me see....back on topic...yea this Reala character, there's a chao that looks like him isn't there? Was Reala role very large in the first game? I don't even remember hearing much about him.

Reala is pretty much nights' counterpart.
His role wasn't too big, just one of wizeman's lil' cronies.
But he had an awsome accent.

Reala's theme music was pretty sweet though.

I think someone already said this, but I'm sure people will be comparing Reala to Shadow, since ya know, no other bad guy before Shadow was only black and red.

Any bets on how long it takes for someone to give Reala a gun or some other weapon?

The Internet and correct grammar are mortal enemies. This is fact. The interview reinforces this fact, but it's an informative interview nonetheless. Nice find, Abac.
