Yesterday we reported Official Nintendo Magazine created quite the hype-storm surrounding a cluster of stars and tauting “world exclusive” information about a returning franchise. The European magazine owned by Future publications, in hopes of calming things down a bit, had ONM Editor Chandra Nair make a statement on Future’s website.

Nair says this whole bruhaha is not an April Fools joke and goes on to say, “Innevitably the situation might change between the time of the mag going to print and the release of the next issue (it is a good six weeks after all). The game may end up being announced online before we hit the shelves. Ocassionally these things happen and it’s completely out of our control. However, the point is that we are not misleading you — there is a new game due to be announced.”

Wait, how will it be announced online if they supposedly have the “world exclusive” in the magazine? Sounds like damage control is kicking into gear. While wild rumors are being thrown around, a source of ours in the U.K., heard from a product manager at Sega Europe, that NiGHTS Wii has been in development for six months already and that the recent Sega poll was designed to reassure Sega that its decision to resurrect NiGHTS is shrewd.

It looks like the glory days of walking into a casino, hacking a slot machine, and leaving a wealthy individual is over, as not only are “software glitches” leading to rewards being revoked, but now you’ll have devious dutiful system administrators watching (and potentially controlling, you never know) everything that happens to your machine. PureDepth, Inc. has inked a deal with International Game Technology to provide a “realistic digital video display” to add a new level of control to vanilla slot machines. On the nifty side, programmers can change the typical cherries and numbers to baseball bats, for instance, if they know the Red Sox are taking a field trip to their casino, but on the disappointing end, you can now rest assured that folks behind the scenes now have complete control over “cost, payout, and nearly every other aspect of the game.” Darn, looks like we’re stuck with ATM-jacking from here on out, eh?
