First screens of NiGHTS sequel on the Wii photo

#Scans #Sega #sequel #Sooo awesome #wii

We reported on this highly anticipated Wii exclusive being more or less official earlier this week, but I guess this makes it extra official. Unless this is just some (very) elaborate April Fool’s joke. And if that is the case, touché, Sega, touché.

Portuguese magazine Maxi Comforted has the first images from NiGHTS 2 (tentative title) and they look pretty great. Based on the pics in the article, everything is very reminiscent of the original, which is most definitely not a bad thing. The style in the first NiGHTS was awesome and this Wii iteration looks to be no different. I can’t wait to see the first video of everything in action, as NiGHTS really shines once you see it all in motion.

I don’t speak a lick of Portuguese, but I will attempt to translate what the article says:

Night man air. Stop bad night dream. NiGHTS Wii pretty. You mote of Wii to guide Night man in Night level. Smooth fly. Twisted mote of Wii go up. Jerked mote of Wii make spin. Online may but friend code make angry. Enjoy fun NiGHTS on Wii.

Okay, that was a waste. While I go wander the streets looking for someone who can help me out with the translation, take a gander at all the scans in the gallery below.

What do you think? Pretty nice, eh?

Maxi Comforted?

Do they have flexi-wings?

yaesir

I speak portuguese, post it here that i will translate it to english.

William Haley

After Sega ruins this classic, they will be all out of mascots to kill. Perhaps Nintendo will let them borrow some of theirs?

KyleGamgee

I spoke portugeese. I'll take a gander also.

Chad Concelmo

@yaesir,
You speak Portuguese? Sweet. Portuguese people are awesome!
Can you check out the scans and send the translation to tips@destructoid.com?
I will totally give you credit for the help (and a cookie). :)

Chad Concelmo

@KyleGamgee,
Woo hoo! See? Portuguese people are awesome (even the Brazilian ones)!

yaesir

@chad

yes, send the text that i will tranlate it :)

yaesir

*tranSlate*

yaesir

lol i did not see the pictures there :)

Chad Concelmo

@yaesir,
Actually, the text is embedded in the scans (in the gallery) and I can't extract it. Is it possible to just transcribe from the pictures? Sorry, I know that is not an ideal situation. :(

Castro

Hey guys! I just thought that I would let you know that gonintendo.com has a translation posted. That is all.

ShinAmano

"After Sega ruins this classic, they will be all out of mascots to kill. Perhaps Nintendo will let them borrow some of theirs?"

True...man I used to love Sega and everything they did, now they are pretty much garbage...

Castro

Actually, it's a link to a neogaf forum post. My bad. Enjoy!

yaesir

@chad

no problem, i am translating it right now :)

yaesir

@castro

great, i will look at it just to be sure :)

Snaileb

I never played NiGHTS.... is that bad?

WhiteX

I speak portuguese as well, i am one of the "Brazilian ones too"!

Epitaph

I don't speak portuguese, but it's easy to understand. I'm peeing in my pants right now, as the article says, NiGHTS is often hard to understand if you never laid your hands on it.

I must get a Wii. Now. *Goes out for some robbery*

calpis

Dear Sega,
Please make it magical.

Sincerely,
calpis

DrRockso

Hawt.

yaesir

There are critical words that were not scanned :(

I am trying to translate what i can.

Castro

@yaesir

You are a fine, upstanding individual. Make it so.

Topher Cantler

Those screens are totally ontinental.

Black Mage Slim

i loved Nights. I WANT THIS GAME!

i hope it supports 480p(rofl @ weak HD Wii capabilities).

i just got an HD TV and i relize that the Wii needs to be able to support at least 720p(hell i think i'd be happy with 720i).

perri

I really hope they work on that character model...Over at Kotaku I posted that the it looks pretty good but upon seeing the bigger images Nights looks a bit blocky and stiff...Can't wait for video though. I'd love to see some blown out bloom lighting here too, I think it'd add to the magical feel. Never played the original.

michiyoyoshiku

I doubt it's true who reports things to euro trash mags first anyway?

Ndizi

I don't understand the Sega PR guys. First Sweden the this?

Epitaph

*Reading some more*: Related to game modes, it will feature a 2 players mode, and will also have "some online features". Online multiplayer?

It will also feature some new characters, including the two kids from the first game (Claire and Elliot). Bigger bosses, bigger environments, more freedom of movement (the first game was criticized for being too "track based").

Not really much info, the journalist end up drooling daydreaming about more sequels to classic Sega titles (Shenmue 3, Burning Rangers).

Sorry, but I'm too lazy to translate everything, it isn't really worth it anyway.

Mxyzptlk

If this ends up being an April Fools joke somebody in Portugal is getting punched in the nuts.

velcroman

yeah...this looks really fake.

yaesir

The folks at neogaf did a pretty good translation of the interview,

http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=5952947&postcount=80

I am translating what's left, do i need to translate the interview too? Because it will be almost the same as that one.

Chad Concelmo

@yaesir,
No need -- I just wanted to be able to get some basic gameplay info.
You are a saint. Thanks again!

bhive01

Yeah, WhereTF is the final chapter of Shenmue?

@Snail, I've only played Nights briefly a long time ago at a rich kids house that I knew only a little bit at the time. I liked what I played, but 5 min with a game doesn't mean shit.

@ Hushgush, what is "ontinental"?

I really hope they include the original on the disc as well so more people can play it. That or release the original on the VC somehow (or a preorder prize/limited edition thing).

vgfreak30

Yay, it looks like its in french

Fully translated interview by their portuese news writer!

yaesir

@chad, translation done, i am sending it, i didn't translate the interview because it was already translated :)

yaesir

@vgfreak30

Portuguese is a romantic language, like Italian, French and Spanish, it has influence from those languages.

Rainbowblack

Im all for a nights sequel

but damn...with last gen graphics

how many timeare we going to say that about any Wii exclusives

damnit, imagine this game on 360/ps3

Crackhippo

good nights mean good mornings

..it looks like shit

Rezbit

Looks like one of the better Wii games graphics wise.

Loque

questworld

Looks more like Dreamcast level graphics to me, at least the main character's model and overall hardly even high end GameCube level. Surely they can do better than that.

ElfAngel7

any body know if it's running on the Wildfire engine?
