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?

Do they have flexi-wings?
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). :)
Woo hoo! See? Portuguese people are awesome (even the Brazilian ones)!
yes, send the text that i will tranlate it :)
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. :(
True...man I used to love Sega and everything they did, now they are pretty much garbage...
no problem, i am translating it right now :)
great, i will look at it just to be sure :)
I must get a Wii. Now. *Goes out for some robbery*
Please make it magical.
Sincerely,
calpis
I am trying to translate what i can.
You are a fine, upstanding individual. Make it so.
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).
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.

I am translating what's left, do i need to translate the interview too? Because it will be almost the same as that one.
No need -- I just wanted to be able to get some basic gameplay info.
You are a saint. Thanks again!
@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).
Fully translated interview by their portuese news writer!
Portuguese is a romantic language, like Italian, French and Spanish, it has influence from those languages.
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
..it looks like shit
