Edit: this site doesn't seem to allow the word "class" in links, so my link doesn't work. You can still use it though, just replace the asterixes with the word "class" to make it "segaclassics". sorry
This place gives a good synopsis of NiGHTs on the saturn.
I would say read the whole thing, but if you dont want to, here's some pieces to whet your apetites:
On plot:
"Claris and Elliot are two children that live in the city of Twin Seeds. Whilst neither child knows the other yet, the intro shows both asleep in their own homes, dreaming. Both dreams quickly turn to nightmares. The reason? In Nightopia, the world where our dreams are played out, an evil being known as Wizeman is gaining tremendous power. Wizeman is capturing the precious dream energy of humans. If allowed to continue, he will rise from the subconscious and enter our world, where no one could stop him."
On gameplay:
"The analogue pad allows NiGHTS players to gracefully fly through the dream worlds, collecting items by looping them (a technique known as paralooping, where a complete circle by NiGHTS forms a vortex which sucks in all nearby items) and racking up points by flying through rings in quick succession. Also, the blue chips used to overload the Ideya become gold chips once the dream energy is released, and collecting as many of these as possible results in a nice bonus once the course is finished."
maybe sega should put NiGHTS on the VC. The VC could handle saturn games if it could do N64 games. (dont see saturn as a category in VC though)
