Monolith Soft (Xenoblade Chronicles thread)

[lilVon]

kinda frustrated

I don't want to buy a Wii.

(but last story and this omg)

Wii is best console of this generation, go cop dat new Zelda!

 

[Evello]

Gamestop lists some games as exclusives because they exclusively have a special bundle. Maybe NA will be getting the red classic controller pro bundle like Europe.

Also, Nintendo just posted pictures from Xenoblade on their facebook page.

I think its release is just about confirmed.

Now that Xenoblade is getting released in NA, I don't feel like waiting for the Wii U and just getting a Wii instead. =\

Yes it's confirmed and it's also a GameStop exclusive (as of right now).

OMG this hype is amazing. I don't have to hack my Wii and import the game in order to play it!

I knew Skyward Sword wouldn't be my Wii's last hurrah. :3

EDIT: It'll be sold at Gamestop and on the website.

Smart move on their part, heck the game's already been localized in english.

Now about DAT Last Story~

I did not even know that both Yoko Shimomura and Yasunori Mitsuda arranged and composed the soundtrack for the game. I always love Shimomura's work. Just listen to the main theme, it's so beautiful. ;A;

I betcha the Xenosaga forums are jumping for joy right now, I did my math correct and I should have enough to get a wii and this gamebefore it comes out! ^_^

 

[Narukami]

So the game is coming out this Friday, April 6th! Who's planning on getting it? It's still GameStop exclusive, and the preorder bonus is an art book! Siliconera posted some scans of the book and the cover is actually the same as the alternate cover that people voted on a few months ago for the game.

I pre-ordered it a month ago. :3 I'm pretty excited about getting it and dat art book~

edit: Also, I just realized it comes out on Good Friday and the mall is closed on that day. So I looked it up on the Canadian GameStop website and it says we get it on the 5th, lol.

I pre-ordered it and can't wait. Really gonna have fun with this game.

 

[Narukami]

Not a single rating below 9/10. Beautiful. ;A;

I'm surprised, yet I'm not about Gameinformer's rating of 9.5. They usually never give high ratings to games that I like, but they have featured it in the past 3 issues before the review. So that pretty much means that they like it a lot. xD

 

[Zephyr]

Is there any news confirming if the North American version is any different from the European version? Ahh glad to see this game is finally being close to release.

 

[XIII Heartless]

When's the date on this game again? It's a definite day one buy from me, can't not pick up the supposed best JRPG of this generation.
