As evidenced by one of the site headers in rotation for the holidays, I love Christmas NiGHTS. I've always appreciated when developers went out of their way to offer something extra as a gift to their fans without asking for anything in return, and I think NiGHTS was one of the last Sega titles to have real charm and heart before they went all weird with the Sonic Adventure series. Given that it was a limited release on an already unpopular system, however, I know a lot of people never got to experience it for themselves.

So, presented here are the opening and closing FMVs for Christmas NiGHTS, telling the story of Claris and Elliot remembering that the true meaning of Christmas is a bigass star on your tree. Then they fall down.

The keen of ear among you undoubtedly noticed that

1) It has voice narration when the regular NiGHTS didn't
2) This narration is awful

Not awful like "hey let's give NiGHTS a goofy accent" awful; it just sounds like they pulled in a random woman from the office who was far too timid to be reading anything in front of a microphone. But this, again, is part of its charm. The other part of its charm is that it really doesn't make any damned sense whatsoever.
