NiGHTS Wii uses Forecast Channel for Game Weather

Posted by Zonk on from the show-offs- dept.

Wowzer writes "Sega Europe updated their NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams page, and in doing so accidentally briefly listed the new features the Wii-exclusive will have when it gets released in winter 2007. From the article: 'Wii connect 24 features: Exchange items with friends via the network and change the scenery according to real-world seasons using the Forecast Channel.' You'll also get three new shape-shifting masks (dragon, dolphin, rocket) to explore the game's seven worlds."

    Don't people play games to experience a different world? DO we really want the same weather outside reflected in game?

  2. Masks? :( by Turn-X+Alphonse · · Score: 2, Insightful

    IS it just me or does this song like it's ruining the point of NiGHTS? In the original we didn't need masks or collectable ideas, you just got to the shrine and you were off. Why include artifical barriers like masks when the game it's self isn't suited to to them?
