Saturn isn't really doing well in Japan, games stopped coming out regularly for it shortly after the DC was released.. I think there are zero new games for it in the past 12 months. It did WAAAY better in Japan then America, not suprising considering a large majority of the great games on Saturn were either Japan exclusive (Radiant Silvergun for instance) or manufactured much less in America (Panzer Dragoon Saga). Lots of 2D games, which tend to do better in Japan, was also a factor.

SNK went bankrupt but were taken over by the Korean developer Playmore, they now own all of the brand names and series and are slowly building a decent name for themselves:

When I say remake I of course mean better graphics, maybe more levels, more things to do on each level (make them mission based kinda like Mario 64/Mario Sunshine was).
That wouldn't work - it would just ruin the brilliant gameplay that was NiGHTS

A NiGHTS sequel would be nice tho if it stuck to it's roots

Sega all ready said they would not make a sequel. Maybe the mission based idea wouldn't be the best idea, but still a remake with better graphics, and a couple of new stages would be nice.

first of all dc failed horribly in japan and it did pretty good in the us dc sold 5 million in us and like 3 million in japan and 2 million in europe or so

while saturn sold 6.5 million in japan itself it outsold the psx the first 3 years and it was a succes in japan
come in peace and leave in pieces

life is hard but the frontside of a train is harder
