The latest Famitsu has a juicy bit indeed - the sequel to the Sega Saturn hit NiGHTS Into Dreams may be soaring onto the Revolution.

From the trenches of popular messageboard (Neo)GAF comes some very welcome rumour-age: the latest issue of Famitsu includes an oh-so-brief aside about the development of the long-awaited sequel to the Sega Saturn classic NiGHTS into Dreams. The good news is, this is less a rumour and more a tantalizing hint at what to expect in the next issue of Famitsu, purportedly to feature a blowout of several heretofore unannounced Revolution titles. (The bad news is: that next issue isn't here yet and our enthusiasm is now buzzing at a dangerous high.) We will certainly upgrade the game from "rumour" to "blessedly upcoming" once concrete details are available.

For gamers not in the know, NiGHTS is the brainchild of Sonic the Hedgehog creator Yuji Naka and ushered in the Saturn's post-release introduction of its analog gaming pad (certainly a direct response to Nintendo's then-revolutionary N64 controller, but also a necessity for the game's graceful flight mechanics). NiGHTS has since been one of Naka's most oft-requested sequels and the game seems to be coming together now at the perfect time on the perfect platform for its gameplay - thanks to the Revolution controller. Rest assured we will not blink until details (and screens) of this title are available for your perusal.
