Nights Falling On Revolution?

If we had one pee for every Revolution rumour that swung our way, we'd be probably have broken the handle on the office urinal by now. Anyway, here's another one: Sega's classic side-scrolling platform fly-'em-up NiGHTS could well be making its long-awaited return on Nintendo's next-gen marvel.
It's a drool-worthy nugget of potential splendour, courtesy of that pulsating news monster, otherwise known as Famitsu magazine. However, don't get your hopes up just yet - the news comes from the mag's rumour section, which apparently claims (according to a translation on the Gaming-Age forums) that there's a Revolution action game in the works by a "game creator who recently went solo" which features "an evil spirit that looks like a parrot flying".
It's a case of putting two and two together and getting a thousand sparkling shards of unblinkered optimism. The first part of the equation comes from recent reports that NiGHTS creator Yuji Naka (who was rumoured to be working on a Rev-style, tilt-sensor-enabled sequel for the Dreamcast) was set to leave Sega, while the fact that NiGHTS did indeed feature an evil spirit that looked like a parrot - if you squinted a bit - tops the whole speculation sundae off with an enormously dubious cherry.
Whatever the outcome, you'll potentially be seeing an evil spirit dressed as parrot doing something interesting on the Revolution soon - and if it turns out to be a NiGHTS sequel, expect to see our faces fly clean off in a mixture of astonishment and glee.
