Poor old Yuji Naka. He travels the world showing all his latest creations and all he’s ever asked is when NiGHTS will be either remade or receive a proper suquel.
Well now he has an answer, as it is revealed that the stupendously popular NiGHTS: Into Dreams will feature as a free bonus locked away within the looming GameCube offering Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg.
And there’s more. Alongside NiGHTS will be Puyo Pop, Chu Chu Rocket and one other, as yet unannounced game, all played on GBA via the link cable.
However, worrying news this morning comes from Sega Europe, who’s spokesman said that “As far as we are aware, this isn’t the case.” Hopefully this simply means that the news hasn’t filtered through the SOE as of time of press and not that the European version is going to be denied the bonus…
It is also unclear as to whether this is the single-level looped game as seen is Phantasy Star Online or the full version of NiGHTS.
We’ll bring you clarification as soon as we get it.
