More details seeping out on NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams today, via an update on Sega Europe's website, with details emerging on WiiConnect24 implementation in the game (including Wii Forecast Channel functionality!), NiGHTS’s shape-shifting abilities and more.
Three sets of Persona masks give the player new shape-shifting abilities and more ways to explore the world, including a dragon mask which transforms NiGHTS into a huge dragon and makes him/her/it resistant to wind effects; a dolphin mask that changes NiGHTS into a dolphin so s/he can explore under water and a rocket mask which makes NiGHTS take the shape of a rocket that can move at supersonic speeds.
The website also reveals some vague details on the game's Wii Connect 24 features, via which you will be able to swop in-game items with friends and – intriguingly – the in-game scenery will alter according to real-world weather condition info from the Wii’s Forecast Channel.
NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams is down for release on Wii this winter 2007. More screens, info and a more concrete release date as soon as we get them.

Mario has hats and Nights has very appropriate masks. Should prove interesting to play. I'm sensing a Majora's Mask thing going on, but that's still good.

4/4
NiGHTS has more of a charm without using masks because then he has all the power.
In the first game, NiGHTS could turn into a mermaid in Splash Garden just by entering the water bubble. Then he could turn into a sleigh for Elliot in Frozen Bell just by entering the snowy path on the 4th lap. These were NiGHTS' own transformations without the aid of any silly masks. Just 100% NiGHTS!
Iizuka makes it sound like it's interesting.
