A chick!? Freakin' awesome! Now Samus and Nights can hold that honor as being kick butt females. =]
actually, the US SEGA site mention that you'll manuever Nights as HE flies...

That's where you messed up. 😛
As far as I can tell "the powers that be" have kept Nights genderless. Just because its a female voice doesn't mean anything.
I've talked to ladies who speak more manly than me. And I have a manly voice. Oh yes.
"He" can be used if you don't know a gender.
It's a marketing thing. "He" gives some sort of personal identity - it's easier to make people warm to a "he" than an "it", and "s/he" (which is what I've generally seen written in androgene cases) doesn't scan as easily.
English really needs to develop a pronoun for androgynous characters, rather than referring to them as "its"...
How about "Ne?"
Edit- You Tube version for those having problem with the IGN version.
Gotta say the CG looks beautiful. The Dreamers kids levels with out NiGHTS look interesting. I wish they had shown some more it. Reala new look remind something out if Cirque du Soleil.
I'm in love!
Eyes are a bit too soft and cute for a badass design like that, though.
Since in the game NiGHTS can collect persona masks to transform, I wonder if it possible to collect the mask that Reala is wearing? If it is then maybe Reala will become playable once you do collect it.
That video looks very pretty!
The wii has never looked more beautiful!
Awesome trailer! Love the new Reala look also. This is so awesome its hard to put in words.
Taking a better look at Ducttaped32x Reala pic, I notice Wizeman in background. I wonder if he is coming back?

Wow I didn't even notice that myself, haha. He looks pretty scary. Me like.
New trailer kicks booty. Can't wait for this game oh man.
For the longest time due to the perspective in the Reala pic I thought they changed his flesh color to match NiGHTS. And bumpy skin. But that's the mask.
*prays that things keep going well for this game*
Still not enough to convince me to buy a Wii, but if it makes Sega realize that gamers respond better to a well-tested game and helps shunt them back to their glory days, bring it on.
Now where is my Ristar?
Looks boring, not that I was a big NiGHTS fan to begin with.
It's like one of those games that it'll grow on you. It's not your ordinary slash and dice game nor it's about rock and roll: it's a unique game that simply showcases the struggle of dealing with your inner demons in a jester-suit.
One of the best things about the original NiGHTS game was it was so fluid in motion that it gave a nice sensation of flying.
Imagining that for the Wii, gameplay would feel almost like a conductor waving their banner to beautiful music.
Speaking of which. What the hell happened to Wii Conductor? I want that game!
Neeeew video! And it is delicious.
There is no sound and there are peoples' heads in the way every now and then, but--
But we finally have (proper) gameplay footage. Granted, the person at the controls doesn't seem to, uh, be very efficient at it either. But nonetheless! Gameplay footage! It's what we've been asking for! Kinda! (It answers all those pesky questions like, "What about the Nightopians? D:", and "Did they take out links? What about the score? The timer?" etc.)
A++ so far~
Joystiq has a hands on at the TGS. Apparently the game does'nt seem to use the Wii motion sensing abilities. It basically like the original.
I hope that there's proper motion-sensing controls in the final product like the article seems to be implying. Otherwise I don't see the point.
They could do something like in Sonic and the Secret Rings. The part on Night Palace when sonic jumps on the flying carpet I was thinking of how cool it would be to actually control Nights like that. I'm sure they can think of other ways to implament motion sensing into the game.
[font face=times new roman color=orange size=3]I have been waiting for this game to show up again for a long while, this is definitely good news.
Now if they could just bring back Astal...
NiGHTS is rated E.

Astal was a bit open-and-shut, though. Feist is dead, Jerado killed him. Jerado is dead, Astal killed him. There's no other villain left. >_>
Also your ezCodes aren't working
I thought this was Mario but it turned out to be some kind of weasle the more I looked at it. Never mind.
EDIT: Hosted image myself.
What a fine broken image
*notices door in bottom right corner of image*
Hmmm.....
Is that where the children enter each level? Or something else entirey?

This is true, but how many times has such a thing happened in other games only to have the enemy return or be replaced by another?
I noticed...it's strange that they worked at first then didn't. Oh well.
Well it looks to be pretty close to Nights' cage thing, I would suspect that it is what the children enter from.
How pretty.
Also NiGHTS 2 WILL FOLLOW CHAPTERS FOUR THROUGH SIX OF THE ARCHIE NiGHTS COMIC BOOK EXCEPT WITH BRITISH KIDS
Best Octoberween ever
Whoa...the dragon looks totally Spirted Away-ish. And the rocket should provide fun, fun, fun. Dolphin will definetly be helpful underwater. And the virtual pets...yay! This game just sounds/looks better and better.

Woah. I did NOT see this coming. Proof plzkthxbai.
LOOK INTO YOUR HEART YOU KNOW IT TO BE TRUE
IT WILL FEATURE SOCCER BALLS, VIOLINS, AND SUPER TERRORISTS
Interesting yet odd looking transformations...for some reason that draws me away.
Hahahaha... soccer balls....
Yeah the dragon looks really weird, not because it's snake-like, but because it's NiGHTS all streeeeeeetched out. But hey, I can't wait to use my DS to raise an A-Life, or something to that effect.
Well, weirdness is what attracted me to the first one, so I'm glad they're bringing some more weirdness into it at least.
New screenshots revealed a new character:the owl. The owl give me the impression he will be similar to Omochao in the fact that he gives you advices throught out the stages.
Also,Ducttaped32x you were right about the door being how the kids enter or exit the dream levels.
Woohoo! I was right!
And yeah, I get the same impression about the owl. But it also looks like he's the link between Nights and the kids rather than having them just find Nights in their dreams somehow.
I can't get over how ugly some of those pics look.
People in the U.S. mark you calendar, because NiGHTS is coming in December 18, 2007. PAL users will have to wait till January 2008.
Whaaaat? I thought it was already November-confirmed for all regions? Did they delay it?
*investigates it*
This and Brawl has been pushed back. I think Brawl is all the way till February. But I don't care. A few months over time shouldn't kill us. This game can't be so complex that they pull a 'Half-Life 2' on us.
NiGHTS 2 is looking prettier and prettier with every screen shot.
They'd have to have their source code stolen first by a Russian hacker before we can call it a "Half-Life 2".
Nights...this year. Awesome. I know where my money is going now. Oh wait...i'll be buying Xmas gifts that week. Darn you Sega! >_<
NiGHTS fans that live in Japan. If you reserved the Journey of Dream get this cute yet creppy at the same time NiGHTS figurine. I wonder if US version is gonna get one too?
