Oh, I see how it is now. The children in this game are British so there has to be an owl in this game, right Harry Potter?

Owls are British... and they live at Hogwarts with Marry Poppins.

I'd venture that your indignation is misplaced - considering how owls are traditionally the custodians of wisdom and stand sentinel over godliness and good learning I hardly see how that can be conceived as anything derogatory! Although it perhaps would have been more quintissentially British if your tutorial was conveyed by a to-me-to-you Chuckle Brothers exchange between a lion and a unicorn, from the Royal Family's coat of arms and the Funday Times...

As for questions, I would like to ask the following:

-Will there be any level design or game mode installed to promote "Link Attacks" as with the snow train Mares in the original game?

-I have heard that an A-Life system won't be featured in the new title. Can this be confirmed, and what role will the Nightopians be assuming either way?

-Is a "Free Flight" mode a possibility for exploring the dream without having to follow the Mare routes?

-What will be the mechanism that comes into play after collecting a trick ribbon? Will we be able to utilise the Wii Remote to trace out manoeuvres?

I'm much obliged to our media contact for the opportunity to voice these inquiries, and it's greatly appreciated!
