NiGHTS gets new subtitle for Japan

Remember when Sega changed the name of Sonic's Wii debut from Wildfire to Sonic and the Secret Rings? We really liked the first name, and quite frankly those rings were never that secret. (There's like hundreds always seemingly stretched along your path.)

At a press conference yesterday, Sega Japan has announced a new title for the title formerly known as NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams. Japanese gamers, behold NiGHTS: Hoshifuru Yo no Monogatari, roughly translated by IGN to be Story of the Night of the Falling Stars.

Will other regions see a name change? We think Journey and Story share enough contextual similarities that Sega might end up keeping the previously-revealed title for North America and Europe. Or, at the very least, come up with a more concise translation than Story of the Night of the Falling Stars.
