Christmas NiGHTS - Sonic into Dreams - Sega Saturn

[EPICLULZ123]

The results table for the Robotnik fight sounds almost the same as Derezzed (Avicii Remix) from TRON Reconfigured. Holy fuck!

[OzcrashSoNiC]

the water effect is so good for such an old game :)

[silverloverable]

AWWW, I KNOW I SOUND LIKE A HUGE SONIC FANGIRL BUT, HE IS SOOO CUTE AND LITTLE. Oh, and im a SILVER fangirl thank you. =3

[TheStolken]

I have to say it. For a game that's really good, the camera is absolute ass.

[EkajTheSwordsman]

Oh, so they used the final boss music from the Japanese version of Sonic CD for the battle with Eggman.

[Sonic9000Xtreme]

Eggman boss fight equals... sonic on LSD.

[fourlokoJoker]

why not make him super sonic and have him fly through the level like night?

[Omegahazard]

I think Robotnik had a few to many Christmas Puddins...with Puffy being one of the ingrediants

[TheAstuteConman]

I watch this and all I think is "WHAT'S GOING ON???"

[Lightspeeds]

Ok I know everyone likes this little easter egg, but I really don't. My problem with Sonic's level is rather than having him fly or run, the level seems entirely dependent on jumping, which makes it feel very slow paced compared to Nights's levels.

What Sonic Team should have done is have sonic turn super at the dualize points and have him turn normal when he runs out of time or redesign the stage to be high speed fun.

[TheBrendan9987]

This songs sort of sounds like Red Mountain from Sonic Adventure a little bit.

[JiNXtheNightmaren]

OMG ROBOTNIK ATE PUFFY!!!

[NinjaRacoonDelta2]

@TeamTripleStar Yeah, I guess. I just hope they implement being able to go supersonic anytime in 3d Sonic's levels. It was going to be in SA1, there are sound clips of a tutorial for it, but it got scrapped for a disappointing final boss.

[NinjaRacoonDelta2]

Sadly, this is the only instance of a good 3d sonic game we will ever see other than the sonic adventure games.

[TeamTripleStar]

@NinjaRacoonDelta2 Dont forget about Generations

[NinjaRacoonDelta2]

@TeamTripleStar I'm walking into generations with a healthy amount of skepticism. For all we know it could end up absolute shit.

[TeamTripleStar]

@NinjaRacoonDelta2 I understand but after colors they wouldnt dare screw it up now especially after how loyal weve been

[shadowfangirl089]

pore sonic he wasnt gifted with ability of flight

[RandomSonickid64]

Sonic: illogically high jump attack! Take that physics!

Physics: Aw hell naw....

[Rodita1]

Awww Sonic look so cute. :3

[YTAbel729]

What no Homing attack?

[InSONICniaTraduzidos]

@YTAbel729

Dude, you're a completely asshole. This was BEFORE Sonic Adventure (The first appearence of Homig Attack)

[TheSoldierSaints]

@YTAbel729 Where that would come in handy, this was before Sonic Adventure. He didn't learn it yet.

[foxjestergirl]

i so wanna play this now

[foxjestergirl]

i want a sega saturn now ;)

[Nintendogamr123]

@foxjestergirl

I hope you can get christmas Nights cheaper than you can get the actual game. If so, I will definitely pick this one up, until I can actually AFFORD the full version of Nights. I don't really have twenty or thirty bucks to spend right now.

[foxjestergirl]

OMG THATS SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO COOL

[Pikazilla]

boing

boing

pingas

boing

[encfam]

Sonic wakes up.

Sonic: That's it, no more chili dogs before bed.

[kwesine]

oooh the sweet memories... :)

[SegaTidbits]

Did you know that this was Sonic's first REAL 3D appearance?

[KeijiDragon]

@SegaTidbits Actually, Sonic The Fighters.

[xIvan321]

@SegaTidbits What about Sonic R? D:

[KrazyScruffy9001]

@SegaTidbits Close but no cigar, Sonic the Fighters came a few months before

[TheVivvav]

Oh Eggman, you're so fat.

[dabeatmaster123]

Why is sega music so diverse and awsome O.o

[randomdude581]

How do you get all those presents???

[csagets]

1:11 Wow Sonic triple jump higher than Mario!

[SONICfan28100]

i think the reason for this is that robotnick wanted to destroy the town so he turned into a clownish ball to enter so sonic followed him

[cokerainbows]

i remember playing this game when i was about 7 or 8....i always wanted the sonic present, it was amazing when me and my bro got it, we were big sonic fans...they really dont make games this good anymore, i bought a sega saturn just to play nights into dreams and the xmas version again, cant get enough of it.

[Pooky1991]

the jumping is makin me dizzy@_@

[Lovegamebaby2000]

What is Sonic into Dreams?

[Eifler121]

@Sonicchannel100 If you see the parts where you play as Nights it looks more fun. It's very basic, but if you're into Sonic games that shouldn't be an issue.

[Sonicchannel100]

Sonic looks so.....pudgy =o

[ZeNatoto]

Oh Flabby Jello Robotnik, you were no threat to DREAM SONIC!

[TheOnlineXtreme]

This was a good bonus feature to the 'Christmas Nights into Dreams' game. :). It would have been great if the Sega Saturn lasted a little longer and in that extra time Sega could have released the 'Sonic the Hedgehog into Dreams' bonus feature onto its own seperate game disc. :D. Maybe Sega could have also added a bit of a story based on the Sonic franchise. Perhaps a story similar to the 'Sonic Shuffle' game? Where Sonic enters a different world. That would have been AWESOME! :D

[demazphantom]

that 3d sonic game was Xtreme, it was unreleased till 2007

[damicroquete2]

So, this probably is what Sonic X-Treme would've be in its early stage...

[Johnny2071]

This is not Sonic's game (gameplay-wise). But he sure can out-jump Mario here

[ASC9000]

to bad he didn't make a cameo in journey of dreams

[Darkspines22]

Sonic runs as if he has to go to the bathroom badly :|

[MamaLuigiBarrelRoll]

I WANT THIS GAME.

[DarkonMK]

does anyone notice Sonic CD jap final boss music at 6:00

[vampstudios]

lol failed super at 6:47

[SantuXD6]

the day Sonic went to Nightopia... and found out he STILL couldn't fly... even in his dreams...

did I heard a "FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF­FFFUUUUUUUUUU"?

[VolOpt2]

ok ima guess that the first screen was a character selection,

so im not gonna ask why i saw bosses there...no...im going to ask this out of curiousity WHY DID I SEE A STRAWBERRY CAKE THERE??

tell me do you play as cake and the enemy is kirby or something??

[Kirbykingdedede]

Which game is this

[GhostieShadow]

OH GOD. That Robotnik/Eggman is WIN.

[Nandsegaman123]

Robotnik is do fat he's a giant bouncy ball.

[KrysEverett]

ROBOTNIK DOESN'T HAVE LEGS IN THIS BOSS that is so weird

[FanaticSonic]

the music is from sonic cd its called Final Fury... (a strange nightmare robotnik)

[bisexualbuffthug]

When sega had the saturn they should have made a 3d sonic. There was apparently some type of war behind the scenes with developers and programmers. There is no reason for saturn to not have a 3d sonic because saturn has 3d capabilities. It would have sold several million more sega saturns.

[LordBababa1]

There was a 3d sonic. It was called sonic jam or something

[Gungriffon]

Sonic Jam was collection of the Genesis Sonic games, and included a 3D overworld, not a full 3D game.

[LordBababa1]

Then I am a dummy

[sonic10158]

@LordBababa1 they tried to make one called Sonic X-Treme but it got canceled.

[mspeter97]

@LordBababa1 it was the very first sonic apparition in 3d

[nicholasthetaylor]

@mspeter97 Didn't Sonic the fighters come out before this? That was 3D

[mspeter97]

@nicholasthetaylor I mean on home console!

[Christianrockrockz]

@mspeter97 Was Sonic 3D Blast not 3D?

[mspeter97]

@Christianrockrockz only the special stages....thanks for pointing out

[FanaticSonic]

well sega saturn had 2 sonic 3d games

sonic R and sonic jam.

Dont forget sonic X-treme but it was canceled because of some problems

[Reala27]

@bisexualbuffthug Well, they had Sonic 3D Blast, which though not exclusively for the Saturn, might as well have been because the regular Sega version was...awful. The Saturn version was passable, I thought it was worth playing, but not enough to sell more. And they canceled development of Sonic Xtreme as well, which was also a mistake.

[Guypersonmanthing3]

@bisexualbuffthug The reason was that the developers (incase no one else knows) didn't make a 3D Sonic for the Saturn is that they had to use the NiGHTS engine, and Sonic Team were like "NO!!" because they wanted to have there own ebgine. Ironic that nowadays, you have to have the balls, budget, time, effort, and balls (yes balls twice) to make your own engine (also ironically, Sonic Team today have created two engine's, even more ironic, they both, at least once, implemented the Havok engine)

[ParanoiaGentlman]

@bisexualbuffthug how about shenmue ? what if they released it there ? :/

[r543Blitzsonic]

@bisexualbuffthug lock at sonic extreme/xtreme

[sayastra]

@bisexualbuffthug actually, what I've heard from the "history of sonic" was they were having a difficult time maintaining the feeling of speed in 3D- which also explains why sonic "pulse walking" and not running here.... would have done better with a proper sonic game though- and if the US didn't release that stupid 32X only 6 months prior, and if the machine was 400 (as compare to it's 250 PS and 300 N64), and if they didn't push the date- there's a lot of reasons it bombed.

[EkajTheSwordsman]

@sayastra The worst part is that the 32X versions of Virtua Fighter and Virtua Racing were significantly better than their rushed Saturn counterparts. AM2 did a great job porting them; the porting of Virtua Racing to Saturn was handled by a different developer. And Space Harrier and Afterburner were as good on the 32X as the Saturn. Comparing these games made the Saturn look bad.

[sayastra]

@EkajTheSwordsman the US new that the Saturn was coming out and didn't tell the Japanese division- on top of that all involved were aware that the Saturn was 6 months away.....it was a bad marketing idea (no matter how good certain ports are)

[EkajTheSwordsman]

@sayastra Of course the 32X competing with the Saturn was a bad idea. That was my point exactly.

Now, I'm not sure where you got the idea that the US division somehow hid the Saturn from the Japanese. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Saturn was developed by Sega of Japan to appeal to Japanese sensibilities and was only successful in Japan. Sega of Japan resented the success of the Genesis in the Americas and Europe, and ignored the advice of Western employees on Saturn.

[sayastra]

@EkajTheSwordsman I didn't say they hid the SATURN!!! they knew that the Saturn was coming out and they went against Sega's Japanese division when they released the 32X after the japanese division told them NOT to!

[sayastra]

@EkajTheSwordsman and by "they" i mean the US DIVISION!!

[EkajTheSwordsman]

@sayastra Here's your exact quote: "the US new that the Saturn was coming out and didn't tell the Japanese division." Hmm...that sounds to me like you misspoke. Everytime you clarify a percieved mistake, you make another one. 32X was Sega of Japan's idea. "The 32X began as an entirely new console that was developed in Japan. When the unit was demonstrated to American executives, the response was less than favorable." (Steven Kent's Ultimate History of Video Games, page 494).

[EkajTheSwordsman]

@EkajTheSwordsman "We were told that there was going to be a thing called Genesis 2. It was going to be another version of Genesis--an entire system. The only difference was that it was going to have double the colors and a lower cost."--Michael Latham, former executive producer, SOA.

"At [Joe Miller's] suggestion, 32X was changed into a peripheral and made more powerful with a new set of processing chips."-Kent

[sayastra]

@EkajTheSwordsman I think you misunderstood. If the 32X was a entirely new console then why does it need the Genesis/Megadrive to work? Doesn't sound like the same product to me....sounds like a code name for the Saturn (a 32bit system)

[EkajTheSwordsman]

@sayastra Let me simplify things. Let's take one quote. Read it VERY CAREFULLY: "At [Joe Miller's] suggestion, 32X was CHANGED into a peripheral and made more powerful with a new set of processing chips."-Kent

[sayastra]

@EkajTheSwordsman you're not going to convince me that the 32X is/was a good idea- I don't like the library for it, I don't like the second huge plug for it, none of those games truly look 32 bit, and finally they STILL SHOULDN'T HAVE RELEASED THAT WHEN THEY ALL KNEW THE SATURN WAS IN THE WORKS!!!! IT'S BAD MARKETING- IT LOOKED BAD ON THE COMPANY AND MEANT THEY BOTH SOLD LIKE SHIT. where Sega had great ideas, their marketing need A LOT of work.

[sayastra]

@EkajTheSwordsman and I still say the 32X as a new console was work that ended up being used in the Saturn....

I got a Dreamcast this year- you know what's wrong with that system? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING (aside from burning games would have pissed me of if i was a developer)!! Many people talk about how the ps2 killed it, I think the ps2 just opened a nicer looking door, if Sega was a more reliable company that released products that were good during the 90's they might still

[sayastra]

@EkajTheSwordsman .....have their hardware division. The Sega CD (good idea but didn't run properly, only interesting to those into RPG's) the motion controller hoop (same thing- but even more useless) the 32X (lacking a decent library, no really 32bits and released near the end of the console- even great games like Ristar were ignored if they were released near the end) the Saturn (pushed the sales date ahead, costs the most out of all the 5 gen systems)

[EkajTheSwordsman]

@sayastra Your posts are completely incoherent. I no longer know what you're responding to. I'm not trying to convince you that 32X was a good idea. You claimed Saturn was hidden from Sega of Japan by Sega of America. I corrected you, so you claimed Sega of America somehow released the 32X unilaterally and then forced the other branches of Sega to do the same. I corrected you again, pointing out that 32X was developed by Sega of Japan. Now you claim I'm trying to sell you on the 32X. 

[sayastra]

@EkajTheSwordsman I claimed that about the 32X but you misunderstood because I wasn't specific enough. My point is simple, the 32X was a bad marketing idea- maybe it would have been better if it was released earlier, but anything released (games or hardware)knowing that there would be a new system in 6 months is almost always forgotten, and not a good idea to mass produce. this isn't about who's correct, this is me saying "I can see why it failed, it was a bad move/idea".

[supergamerbros]

is that Robotnik? O.o ._. .....

[knuclear2008]

Hmm....this mustve been here to make up for Xtreme's cancellation i guess.

[carmatic]

if only you could go super sonic and fly around in this game... it would have made everything SOOO much easier

merry christmas, by the way

[RequiscantInPace]

XD i heard that model was also going to be used in Sonic Extreme For 32X!

[Niososonic]

THIS GAME IS AWSOME!

[luigi386541971]

That Robotnik boss at the end of Sonic's Night was my favorite boss in the game cause he was so easy to beat. Plus I liked throwing him around the level. But, I have to play a long time to unlock on my game again because my Saturn doesn't keep game data after I turn it off. It sucks. Wish I could play the Sonic in Nights again.

[sexywolfboy7]

I can remember getting all of the presents in this game and found it so awesome that you got to play as Sonic in a Nights level. It's hilarious that Puffy is replaced by Robotnik (a.k.a Eggman) at the end of the level.

[SonicGPlayer]

i wish he could jump that high in his own games haha

that would make things a lot easier

[sonicman2500]

i remember this. *sigh* good times

[bisexualbuffthug]

They should have put tails in this nights game since sonic cannot fly and he needs his pal tails to swoop him up.

[LightSpeedBlast]

@bisexualbuffthug they could have us'd Super Sonic. All ways were SPOCIOUS in this. gh

[Eifler121]

@bisexualbuffthug Or they could've just made Sonic fly; they could've added a whole chaos emerald feature, with which you unlock Super Sonic as well.

[randomdude581]

@bisexualbuffthug lmao i think sonic can jump high enough XD

[xXBoscoXx]

This video is awesome, I've meet Nights by seeing this video back in September 2006. Aw, cute times. This is one of my favorite videos in Youtube.

[EdTheHedgehog1894]

I lol'd so hard when I first saw Robotnik.

[BlueKnightNight]

My, isn't that pretty neat to be able to play as Sonic in NiGHTS.

[GangstaHedgehog]

Hey, this area was in SA1!

[Calvers06]

Yea in that gay ass pinball level!

[FuckedYourDad]

the whole game was about flyin through the things, with sonic, its seems like it would be a bitch to complete cause hes only jumpin

[Cresantstar]

sonic sure can jump high

[BurashiP3]

I dont see how I can unlock this in the PS2 version

[MoonshadowCaz]

You can't. It's only in Christmas NiGHTS.

[sonicrules111]

they should have made him go super sonic for this gameXD

[Emi212]

Sonic's dreaming! XD

[TechnoHajikelist]

I STILL OWN THIS GAME!

[CornishCreamtea07]

ah you cant beat a 32bit Sonic

[JASONMOORE87]

lol y u got so many negatives for ur opinion! ive seen much worse lol

[CornishCreamtea07]

sigh Youtubers can be so mean and thanks for sticking up for me

[JASONMOORE87]

ur right sum youtubers can b mean, they forget everyone has an opinion and is allowed to share it - without having to get negatives!!!

negatives r for wrong information or rude etc, not 1s opinion, i actually liked the 16 bit model lol.

[kilonardodicaprio]

Awesome ! If only I had a Saturn...

[wolfjak]

thats the closet will ever get to sonic xtreme

[NebachadnezzaR]

Actually, that would be the leaked beta

[wolfjak]

well this is an actual game and it's using the same engine the beta was using(i think so)

[sonick123456]

@wolfjak ....Closet?

[RocketRaccoon99]

@wolfjak Well, we do have Sonic Jam's Sonic world and.... 3d Blast [Yea i said it!] Its a shame that xtreme never saw the light of day, And who knows. It might've saved the Saturn if it came out.

[wariofan259]

sonic runs wierd lolz.

[LegendaryGerous]

Yes I remember this!

[MOUPIMOUPI]

Sonic CD Final Boss music during the Robotnik fight

[RyanJoshNewsNetwork]

Umm no it isnt. lol

[MOUPIMOUPI]

Japanese version, smart one

[HyperSonicXtreme]

Yeah but a longer version

[dougd1015]

How do you unlock Sonic as a playable character?

This is supposedly the only existing game mechanics from Sonic Extreme.

[FlyingLavaDragon]

If I remember correctly, you get him if you match up two cards of him in the 'Open your presents' minigame.

[dougd1015]

Oh, thanks.

How do you unlock the 'Open your Presents' minigame?

[FlyingLavaDragon]

I think it's if you complete a stage after defeating Gillwing......but it has been quite a while since I played this, and that might not be correct.

[dougd1015]

Why thank you.

Sorry to bother you so much with this topic.

I'm sure you're right, either way I guess I'll know soon enough when I get this game someday.

[superbanjo64]

u kno this would make much more sense if sonic was super sonic and the ideya were chaos emerealds, but it's still awesome the way it is, man i wish i had a saturn.

[Heroton2008]

SONIC!

[KingKombat95]

wow, that actually does make sense.

[dougd1015]

Hey it has to be this way, Sonic may be in the game as a present, but its still a Nights game so they have to stick to the traditional bases of Nights games.

But I suppose that would've suited a good SOnic mini game.

[shalpp]

play botanic serenity

[PurpleRosesofDeath]

OMg lol I was about to type this

[Shad0wM7ri8]

LOL PUFFY EGGMAN

[Pikmingirl]

Amazing, Eggman/Robotnik is a boss XD Still a good game, Yay NiGHTS and Sonic! xD

[yocapo32]

i the only one it´s see sonic triying to go super at 06:30?

[ShadowRobn]

gameplay sucks but that sonic is soooooooooo cute

[SOnicpower451]

Have you ever heard of character mods in videogames?

[Shiromokuba]

It was just a character model. He plays the same as Elliot, Claris, and NiGHTS. Would have been nice if they added his speed and agility though.

[Linksonic5]

you just wanted to get that one little triple jump -^_^-

[robermann]

The background music pretty much sounds like the 'Red Mountain' theme from 'Sonic Adventure'...

[GregTheLion]

Sonic's a bit of a dissapointment in the game. I mean, not being able to fly is a bit of a disadvantage. If it were Super sonic though, i'd be easier to understand

[silviaXsilver]

when the balloon eggman thing gets thrown it sounds like its fartin XD

[GregTheLion]

sounds more like he's throwing up

[YoshiZilla]

What?! Shouldn't sonic turn super or me some kind of Sonic Jester?

[dorkchop2007]

hey that be cool if they did another christmas nights and instead of flying as nights you fly as super sonic XD

[QueenEnvy]

what!?!?! how do u get him??? oh i did haer there is some other nights charactor in that other game

[GlorabellaJBrealm]

cute

[SegaUranus]

I always thought this was a cute extra but in the end it was bad... really bad.

[xxxemoreaper123]

he runs like a retarted chicken

[dorkchop2007]

with its head chopped off XD

[Imademarsturnbackwar]

wow I suck and never got sonic and is nights a secret playable character in sonic adventure?

[Sjjapanese]

why is Sonic slow?.....

[jet3lol]

man i hope he can be played in the nights for wii!

[Mikiyikiy]

geeze sonic doesnt get to fly? :*(

[mk12200]

then he would be super sonic

[Mikiyikiy]

That wouldve been okay...

[Kinnikujoe1]

YEAAAH SONIC

[triforceprotecter]

who knew sonic had the idyea of courage 5/5

[KojiTsunami]

Forget Sonic Adventure, this is Sonic's first 3-D appearance.

[SirGiggles]

dont forget sonic 3D blast

[KokoroNoSama]

dont forget sonic jam

[Damicroquete]

No, it is S3D

Sonic 3D isn't really 3D. It's just an isometric 2D game with prerendered graphics.
