SEGA Studio producer, Takashi Iizuka, has expressed his wish for NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams to utilise Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection when it hits Wii later this year.
"Currently, we are investigating a number of features that will utilize the Wii network capability," Iizuka told IGN, "but, at this time we have not decided on any specific functionality yet."
On a still vague but more encouraging note, he goes on to say: "Ultimately, we would like to have multiplayer functionality as well as a way to tap into the Nintendo network where players could share their game experience on a world-wide level."
Whether this means some sort of online scoreboard or full-blown online multiplayer is left to speculation, but we obviously hope for the latter.
He also revealed that work started on the new nights last year, and went on to talk about the challenges encountered with developing controls for the Wii Remote.
"Initially, we envisioned using the Wii remote as sort of a "magic wand", where NiGHTS could be directed simply by movements of the controller," he revealed.
"But with any new input device, we were finding some limitations using just the remote. That is why we are also designing the game to be played using the remote with the Nunchuk for a more "traditional" control configuration."
Look out for more on NiGHTS in the next couple of weeks.
