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?
