A very impressive 9.0 for NiGHTS! You can complain that this is Nintendo power but they really don't seem to over rate Nintendo games. Heck, they only gave SMG a 9.5.  Obviously just one review in the many, but it certainly makes it worth paying attention to.

I'll wait for IGN review, or gametrailers....

Better wait for other reviews.



 

Nights so much better than i expected, even coming of a nintendo magazine



I can't wait, ordered this as part of the TRU B2G1F sale! Ordered Brawl that way too!



BAM! There it is!

Being that NiGHTS was a Sega game, I immediately assumed it was going to average 50% and waited in the hopes of being pleasantly surprised ...

This is a good sign that my expectations will be exceeded.



I can't trust the NiGHTS score at all. Since i have Warhammer for the DS and i believe it's a major suck-fest. Bleh... i'll wait for IGN too.

Famitsu-7, 7, 7, 8
Details from Famitsu:
* Doesn’t really use Wiimote
* Good replay value
* unique controls, but they may be bothersome
* bosses call out hints to help you before the battle
* restart stage if you die
* Human missions spice things up, but are a bit distracting
* heartwarming
* can’t skip real-time cutscenes

The Board is the best site on the Internet.

I'm expecting Nights to end up in the low 80s or high 70s on Metacritic. On one hand it looks fairly promising, but on the other it's made by Sega, or more specifically the guy who did Shadow the Hedgehog.

Definitely not getting it right away, since the European release date is a week after Zack and Wiki, but will probably try to get a used copy or borrow it from a friend.

Wasn't the Famitsu review a part of the bunch of fake info we got btw? 



Why would you expect a 50? Sega's had a good year. Virtua Fighter 5, Sonic Rush Adventure, Crush, Bleach DS, Football Manager 2008, Total War, Virtua Tennis, and Sega Rally have all averaged around or above 8s. If anything, I'd say they're on a rebound, after taking a few years to adjusting to the platform agnostic life.
