And here we have todays NGAMER article. It's certainly worth reading for the awesome new shots! This has got me excited. Excuse the blurryness on one page, i'll rescan it later, i've had 4 hours sleep @_@
Also! Note the shot of the kids bedroom. Like we were saying last month there were 2 new children, Kevin and Helen. Like i discussed in the Podcast Kevin wanted to be good at Football, this would appear to be Kevins room, unless of course they've redesigned Elliot... which would be sad. I wonder what is going to happen. Perhaps the 2 other children will appear as children from the past or something? The city looks older than TwinSeeds City. Lol Big Ben much?
There is also artwork of the underwater beachy level which is beautiful. It amuses me it has big boats in just like my dream 2 years ago in my diary XD Maybe if i wish for everything you guys asked for it'll come true.
Read the article, it has a lot of info we already read at the NGAMER preview interview with Iizuka, but some new stuff too. Confirmation of the Jung Archetypes, and more on the online idea we also know vague things about.
I think i'll write to Iizuka.

1. The part near "Fuckle" (due to lack of a better name.) it talks about how it looks like Puffy. Then, correct me if I am wrong, if talks about what Puffy was and says "he". What what what?! Since when is Puffy considered a 'he'?! Are the giant boobs bigger than my face not enough of a hint? Or maybe its like my real mom says, "Oh that game with the giant cross dressing bunnie?" Cross-dressing....
2. So Kevein likes soccer/football and flying. (Gee what a concept.) Wait...why does his shirt say "Fire"? And why is there a mini pillow that looks like a white flower? O.O
3. That screenshot of Mystic Forest looks just like the one I took a couple of days ago. Just a lot better looking. lol
4. I would like to know something about Helen now...
I will probably ask more once I finally finish reading the article.

I haven't even read through the whole article and I already have a few questions.

1. Either that gaming mag is full of idiot writers, like pratically all gaming mags now, or Puffy is actually a he, and took lessons from Kefka, Jakotsu, Flea, and any other famous crossdressing villain.
2. Maybe, he took lessons from Puffy?
3. Thats a question? O.o
4. Maybe if Kevin didn't take lessons from Puffy...then maybe he and Helen are the same person?

The boy has lots of rocketships in his room. Does this mean a space level?
Would be better than a soccer/football feild.

Oh god! The obligatory space level! How could we forget that one?! NOOOOOO!
Or better yet...the obligatory casino level....

But, yeh. As i was saying to TRiP while we were reading the article this afternoon, this seems to be a bit more calm on the nerves than all the other recent stuff that has been going around online. After reading this article i didn't feel as nervous as i was when we made DreamCast show 01. The only thing that is worrying me now is what is up with Elliot and Claris then? Are they in it or not because we know very well that this Kevin character is in it for sure because that's his bedroom and we were told about his fascination with football/soccer months ago. ...unless they've changed Elliot completely....which would suck more than a tad.
Either way, TRiPPY is going to take a short nap now because she was awake until 6:30 this morning fixing up these forums. Once she wakes up we'll get to recording the next DreamCast show and you can bet that all this recent stuff will be our main topic.

Anyone else notice that the F**kle boss stage is on a Pinball table? That'll be a very interesting boss. Ironic also, as NiGHTS was featured in a pinball table in Sonic Adventure.

It's definitely an emotional rollercoaster, between vague interviews and flashy articles (and jeez, I wish they'd get some magazines with somethin' going over here!). The 'Fuckle' boss kind of freaks me out... just screams annoying and somehow demonic. I'm curious to see how that will work out in terms of how the level is set up and what the music is like.
That little caption box up there doesn't make any sense. For one, yeah -- wasn't Puffy decidably female? I've seen guys with boobs before... though that's pushing it. Second, "a rotund clown you had to barge around a circus world to his demise" ...is a bit confusing. I didn't think Puffy's realm was all that circus-like. I tend to favor the analysis over at Sonic Cult, where Puffy's realm was a house with furniture and fancy things, material possessions. S/he's not all that clownlike, or at least not the clowns I've seen. The mask could be suggestive of some secret kinky lifestyle... but..

Y'know, i've never noticed that before. In a way, it does look like the form of a pinball table. Interesting take on that, Dan.
As for the 'Puffy caption' that everybody keeps mentioning.
Well, the character Puffy is Elliot dreaming about his mother in some shape or form.
Haha. No. I'm being serious. You should check the song/level/boss decriptions that Sonic Team originaly wrote on their Japanese website back in the year of 1996. The section is still there because TRiPPY checked it out a few days ago. It's all in Japanese but once translated it speaks of Splash Garden and the boss 'Puffy' in being in connection with Elliot's mother. Which is good because another caption elsewhere says something about the Maren bosses having something to do with the dreamer kids parents, i think.
Quote goes - "the capacity to idealise both a mother and father is where we draw influences for the boss creatures".
...oh god.... it really is Puffy and Jackle's love child.

Heh, I hope the forum gets a mention, as well as interesting post, with the names of those who made interesting post >.> *makes an interesting post as he's never been on tv, radio, or a podcast before*

I noticed that on the very first screen shot I ever seen, the day it was released. I assumed everyone else noticed this by now.
Ohhh man, it's so gorgeous! I saw the picture with the ship & fountain and nearly fell off my chair.
What scares me is, I don't think thats an ingame image. I think it just may be concept art. I hope I'm wrong.
Squee!Amazing,'m getting excited just looking at it!I wish I could zoom in and read it,yay!*faints*@-@
Had to quote all those pictures? O.o
Y'know, i've never noticed that before. In a way, it does look like the form of a pinball table. Interesting take on that, Dan.
What? You too? Come on, seriously, am I the ONLY one who noticed this when the orignal screen shots were released? O.o

I'd hate to know what parent of which kid Reala is supposed to be then. And 6 maren bosses in both this and the last game? How many parents do these damn kids have? O.o
And, when was this boss named Fuckle? I must be REALLY missing something here O.o

I find NiGHTS eyes and eyelashes really off-putting O.- In the game the just look like spikes and the eyes have too much shine in the wrong places, you can hardly see his pupils!
But apart from that nothing really new...but exciting nevertheless ^^

Since DA and the Oekaki boards. It was also mentioned in the last podcast. lol Seriously though that is not the real name at all. We just don't have anything else to call it at the moment. (Also if you missed the priceless oekakei please check it out. They have been really busy this past week. O.O )
Also, I never did mention my partake on the masks. I think they will be just fine. So long as I don't see this:
NiGHTS Cloud
(This was for those of you who don't go on the oekaki boards. Its a really old joke and horrible image I made. At least the cloud is pretty...)

Never heard of those boards, but NiGHTS looked so adorably happy as a cloud.

And yes...NiGHTS likes being a cloud in my pic. ^^

No. X3 The pinball thing struck me right away too. And anyway, even if the boss looks retarded you get the privilege of beating the living shite out of it, right? Possibly with the aid of huge pinball flippers. That can only be a good thing. ^^What? You too? Come on, seriously, am I the ONLY one who noticed this when the orignal screen shots were released? O.o
I made the space/rocket connection immediately too... I really wanna be a rocket...
NiGHTS' tranny eyelashes are offputting though... the in-game screenshots make him look a bit like Spongebob... XD
I haven't even played with a Wii yet but the idea of waving your arms about to fly sounds great - if tiring. ^^;
Do you think the parent/maren connection has something to do with parents trying to stifle childrens dreams? Telling them that dreams are nonsense and shouldn't be believed in as they never come true? I kinda came round to a new way of looking at the game recently (thanks to an Arcade Fire song)... that perhaps it isn't just courage to fight your demons/reality but also the courage to believe~ ^u^
Urgh, Sega, give us more... @_@

Now it all depends on whether or not Sega America will actually do a good marketing plan for NiGHTS and most importantly if the game will still capture the souls/hearts of it's players like it did 11 years ago.
Funny thing is, this is basically Sega's last hope in regaining any confidence in gamers. However NiGHTS is special to the team, not just another mascot like say Sonic.

NiGHTS's big eyelashes might be for a reason. He can now summon giant gusts of wind every time he rappidly blinks his eyes! Or at least he better because they are bugging me to death.
Wow...with those lashes NiGHTS probably gives the most intense butterfly kisses.
