"If there is one game that I wished I had made, it would have been Nights"- Shigeru Miyamoto
so those were the words that he said ?
So a company made pandemonium....
"My balls itch" ~Shiggsy Miyamoto
I'm a gamer 28 years now(I'm 35) had the honour to play nes and Atari back in the day played thousands of games in dif consoles...this is one of the greatest games of all time...anyone that is reading this and haven't played the game pls hear me out and play it
this game is magical. there's simply not many other games like it out there, and it deserves much more attention than it got. seriously, this works in 3d so much better than sonic does. throw a sequel or 5 this games way! people will buy it sega!!! imagine a 3ds release with all that crazy depth gameplay that made 3d land so amazing?
SEGA SERIOUSLY. MAKE MORE OF THIS.
Well said!
NiGHTS was such a fantastic gaming experience back in the day! ♥
The Saturn is my favorite console of all time. Extremely good system very underrated and with awesome imports, a ton of games to play
My sister is an absolute Master at this game, I can't even beat the first level. We only had the demo as kids but I got her the PS3 HD release and she beat it like we were still in 95!
Nice story :)
Such a beautiful and 'special' game!
yep it well made game
I wish sega still made systems.
I'd prefer them not to. I am in no way saying that Sega is terrible; I believe that the Saturn and Dreamcast are definitely top notch for their generations. What Sega has done defines them as a company. I look at Sega and see that their history has value, which is partly because of their end in the hardware game. Today, not all of those brilliant people are around. Sega is simply not the same, so there is no telling how they could change their company name for the future.
Uutama Never thought about it that way. I had my pick between SAT and PS as a kid christmas 96...picked the SAT (obvious choice despite what my father said), never looked back and has been a fan of SEGA since. My childhood right here.
They really are without comparison the best hardware makers ever...but the way they keep kicking on Sonic, making shit rehashes and refuse to do Shenmue 3 yeah maybe you're right. This way no matter how bad they fuck up and how shite the Sonic games get their legacy from the consoles hardware and the way they ruled arcades is intact.
If they made a new console I'd probably still buy 3 though:P
Someone needs to blatantly copy the SAT 3D and Model 2 controllers btw they're still by far the best 3D/2D controllers ever made.
wazzobazzo i agree on the controller and shenmue 3 points you made
Uutama Sega today is still perfectly capable to make a killer console. The point is that their fans are so mad at them for what they did to us witn saturn and Dreamcast that we don't trust them any more. In fact, after Dreamcast I just bought 3 more games: Shenmue 2, P D Orta and Gun Valkyrie. The only reason I would buy another Sega game would be Shenmue 3 and only if Yu Suzuki were involved in its direction.
loveforgothic Well said brother... Well said... :-(
...okay, this is definitely on my bucket list now. Looks very 90's SEGA.
I must have played through this game 100 times as a kid...almost as much as Virtua Cop 2.
Man, I wanted a Saturn so bad when I was a kid.
Nights was the game i only could dream of having when I was a kid, my parents only bought me handhelds
Nights is a very especial game,one of the best games ever made ,its magic game,and the soundtrack is amazing
OMG, when I looked at my subscriptions, I was like: "OMG YEEESSSS!!!"
Thank you Mark, you've just made me, and a bunch of other Nights fans very happy. :)
This is one of my favorite Saturn games. It's up there with Panzer Dragoon Saga and Guardian Heroes.
This is an amazing game, but it really isn't for everyone. A large part of it is the feeling it gives you, it's art if any game can be. Some of my favorite music in any video game, too.
There's also Christmas Nights, which was a promo game given out (although I don't remember how). It's smaller but changes depending on the time of year.
The only people who hate this game are the ones who view games as nothing more than reaching the completion sequence, then never playing it again.
I mean, "hate" _is_ a strong word, but sure, "anyone with differing opinions is wrong". What a nice things to say... wow.
I got recommended this video in 2022. I miss CGR, what beautiful times Mark!
I still have this game, the original one I bought back in 1996. I still play it from time to time.....love it. The game has some of the best music in a game......ever.
There is only one way to truly experience the beauty this game has to offer.
1) Be a young kid.
2) Take a time machine back to 1996.
I picked a great night to have some brew and watch my subs.
After nearly mastering the game, watching a new player is almost painful
it's a really confusing game to pick up & blind play. I'm still struggling sometimes but getting better for sure.
Sonic is in this game!
This game, along with Mario 64 for the N64, was like my entire childhood!
Thumbs up if this INCREDIBLE game, in its imaginative world, complete lack of voice acting, and almost inconceivably whimsically invading your mind idea, MOVED YOU TO TEARS. True story.
One of the very few excellent games for the Saturn. I remember getting this game in 1996 and having a blast. This game alone made owning a Saturn worth it.
There are tons of excellent Saturn games.
they made nights journey into dreams for the wii. i also have to agree with fgcytgfyfcghfc in that you forgot about the music, that was something that i could never forget. that music was what made me fall in love with the game in the first place.
Three Dirty Dwarves, Mr. Bones, Baku Baku, I wish You would review those awesome games on the Sega Saturn
This game is absolutely genius in so many ways. Once you figure out the control scheme it turns absolutely sublime; I know Mark didn't get into the game, but watching an expert play this game is absolutely amazing they way they can absolutely fly through the levels, perfectly picking up every bonus and racking up insane multipliers. Also the music was CRAZY good.
Something about the cheer at the start of the episode makes me happy inside :D
Man I love the way you do intros to all your reviews. Always awesome.
This game really takes me back to my youth, when my mom got me my sega saturn...it came with a demo of nights into dreams and I played the same 2 levels over and over and over. I loved the music and gameplay, there really is nothing like it even till this day.
I really regret never purchasing the full game though.
i remeber my parents buyin this for christmas and i loved it, i still got yet havent played for it for years
This game is one of the reasons I thank God I didnt miss the Saturn over the Playstation, It shows the power of the Saturn and is has originality and fun in its purest form.
Love when I get an excuse to rewatch and 80s Comics review.
exellent sound track.. and great game, one of my all time favorites.
when i was a kid, i had dreams about this game lol. they were always fun. flying around a colorful world. what a full on stimulating game. beautiful graphics, and wonderful music. the wii version was fun, but didnt quite have the same nostalgic factor.
I love this game. Damn, I miss the 90s. I get too nostalgic playing this game.
I can't wait to see your review for the Sega Saturn 3D controller.
i always wanted to see a review of this game,thanks
Dam nights was indeed one of the better games made to date period. It didn't hurt that it came with its own control for free. I spent hours on this game on end it really showed off the power of the Saturn.
The music in this game is amazing.
This brings back my childhood.. >.
The HD version is out on steam now.
remember playing this on my saturn way back, can't wait to replay it now after all these years.
I love this game - so fun, creative and trippy
Only Mark could reference Flatliners in a Nights review.
This is truly the greatest game of all time!!!! I masted it in the 5th grade and could never find a game since that game me the same experience.... Then I spent the rest of my gaming years waiting for a squeal that would never come.
I remember when this game came out, the graphics blew me away. I seem to recall it being one of the earlier 3D games.
One of the best soundtracks I ever heard
Tricks! While flying around is what makes this game shine. There are many diff ones that can even be looped together. There was also a Nights Xmas version.
That looks like one of those games that if it was one of my first games as a kid, i would have very fond/emotional memories of it...
I ALWAYS WANTED TO PLAY THIS GAME NOW I CAN SEE IT HERE!
i love this game
This game is awsome! it even has widescreen support! now thats ahead of its time!
I made the power loop music my ringtone, I totally thought my phone was going off during this review. :P
There is also a Xmas-themed version of the game called Christmas NiGHTS with snowy levels and Christmas music. Worth picking up if you like the game.
+sdmayday I have it, and u could play sonic as a bonus :D
What an AMAZING GAME!!! I played it in the 97.
One of the loveliest games ever dreamed up, easily ^_^
Had this game for Saturn. Very original and well made. One of the best for Saturn for sure. Analog controller would have been cool but I used the regular one.
when TH-cam seemed so innocent and pleasant
This game is available on the wii as well as for download on various services like steam, psn, and xbla, so it is readily available
the second on is on wii not the saturn game
you are right, thanks for the correction!
Pabmyster cool
gotta love 90's sega
this was my childhood!
It's about time you reviewed this game, because I've been VERY curious about this game, I've been wondering how this game was, thank you for showing me CGR. Keep up the good work
your #1 fan

The Saturn 3D controlstick is the nicest and most comfortable controlstick ever...I miss sega consoles. Now I never know which console to buy anymore:(
If only mark had seen that this game has a proper widescreen option in the options menu ;)
He would have loved that.
didnt know if you knew, but if you put the game disc in a pc , a paintshop comes up that has 3d rendered artwork and screen shots and a picture of knights action figures that you can draw and color on. its kinda cool and a whole lot of old cd games have hidden content on them that you can only access on a pc
I just played this yesterday for the first time in a while!
And don't forget the artificial life program in NiGHTS -- those little egg guys with the wings. It's actually quite complex how they work. You can hatch eggs, get pairs to mate and create mutated offspring, and their mood affects the music. If you're very lucky, you'll see them build a castle or build you a statue. It was a very intriguing experiment; the Chao in Sonic Adventure was an extension of this idea, but not as well implemented.
This is why I used to respect Sega. They were brave enough to make games like this.
Yep, NiGHTS: Journey Of Dreams, also a great game. As much as SEGA have dropped out of the console race, they still make very creative and imaginative games, and for that they will always be my favourite videogame company :)
I love this game great review
i love nights, used to play it when i was 8,got myself a sega saturn recently and nights into dreams and the xmas version which changes the scenery etc when you put a different date in.Its great fun.plus you can play as sonic haha!
Never knew about this one. Seems to have some serious fun gameplay.
When I first saw this game, I was fairly young and the game had just come out. I remember seeing it being played on a Sega owned by a friend of mine at the time.
I played it myself at his suggestion and I think I enjoyed it.
I never got one myself but I kept telling myself I owuld one day. It never came to that and I eventually forgot about it.
Looking at this review, I think I should have got the game while I had the chance.
NiGHTS was also re-released a decade later on the PS2, exclusively on Japan.
Never had a chance to play the original Saturn version or the PS2 version, but seems pretty good!
you and avgn are my favorite reviewers
Nights Into Dreams 4 Ever :D
exactly 17 years apart yet this game looks way more appealing and original compared to whats being made now. thats the point
This was the definitive platforming game for me, since I got a Saturn first
Awesome review!
I'd love to see a review of Jet Grind Radio, though. : )
I still have the Christmas nights sampler from the official Sega Saturn magazine, and its awesome. Now available on XBLA.
Christmas Nights rocked! I have both a PAL and an NTSC version of that!
This looks like a PS2 game, but 5 years BEFORE the PS2!
Amazing, simply amazing.
Well done Sega.
still holds up till today
Quite possibly the best game ever made.
NiGHTS is such an amazing game, one of the best on the Saturn no question. Outstanding gameplay, graphics, music, design, and more.
I do have to say though, use the 3d controller for many games. Many Saturn games have analog support for one or another of the analog controllers (Mission Stick, 3D Controller, Arcade Racer), and I recommend getting all three of those controllers. It makes a real difference in a lot of games! Just try stuff out, many games support them which don't mention it.
Excellent review, though I have no desire to ever play this. Mark is always very fair.
They need to place this on all the systems as an downloadable game!! Just revamp the graphics a little keeping the original gameplay!! I would love to play this!!
XD THIS LOOKS SO GREAT FOR THE SATURN'S 3-D POWER!
I remember 1st playing this on the SATURN,I bought it because it was made by the (original)SONIC TEAM & wow,truly amazing to look at & more importantly the gameplay was unique & flawless.In my top 5 best games of all time,right up there with the 1st Shenmue & Timesplitters 2,while TOTTALY diffrent from both they games.1 word for Nights into Dreams-MASTERPIECE!!ps-now available in hd & original SATURN version on X.B.L.A.
The game is coming back as part of the Sega Heritage series!
can't wait for this to be released on PSN :D
Long Live CGR!!!!!!
one of the best games from Sega "you said it as i was typing it ^_~
One of the better Saturn games.
ahh good old creativity
havnt seen that in a while
This game really shows the Parallelogram rendering.
For people who dont know, this is console renders Parallelogram polygons and not triangular polygons. Making it 1 of the reasons why this system died.
I remember playing a demo of this at the store 1996 (I was 9 years old).
My parents had to literally drag me away from it.
You won't regret it. I bought a Japanese Saturn a few months back after about 14 years of wanting one. I have 13 games for it now, and I am having a ball. No need for any of the new consoles (*yawn*) 2013/2014 is the year of the Sega Saturn!
Sega Saturn is superb, I love SEGA! 😊
and yeah this game is mostly for children, this is the kind of abstract stuff that young children really go for I played this game as I child, and I didnt find it hard, Children LOVE repetition, so because the devs made really awesome and creative ways to make you want to play again and again, in addition to making it so abstract (it was about flying in your dreams, how awesome and child-like is that) this was one of the few games you just had to experience as a child, to fully appreciate it now
looks great. didn't know the saturn was so good. i didn't buy any console after the mega drive (until the wii came out - and there was no sega consoles anymore)
