Have the 3DS version.. I know this is superior but i just cant stand to look at 480p on a 65 in TV.. It isnt pretty but this is a good deal for people who missed out on the first run

LAWSON723863d ago

Personally sub 480p on a 3ds xl looks no better.

DivineAssault 3862d ago

it does but having it on the go is convenient for me.. I tried playing the wii version again an it wasnt pleasing to the eyes..

MikleDemi3863d ago

Says 25% discount. Hell I still bought it. Never beat it in the first pace, going to have time before the sequel comes out.

Love Nintendo and Microsoft for BC. Thanks guys!
Now if only Sony got with the BC program.

i'll just wait for the new game on wiiu at this point.

wonderfulmonkeyman3862d ago

Playing the first game would help you get acclimated with the way the combat and quest systems work, though.
That and it's just a really fun and gorgeous game to play through, and the music is something special in many areas.

Makes sense. It's been nearly 3 years since the DLC for 3 came out. The next Xenoblade or whatever they end up calling it will probably come out next year.

For me, Xenoblade 2 and 3 and Final Fantasy 7 remake and rebirth are the best JRPGs or RPGs in general ever made. Yes, they even surpassed Expedition 33 in my honest opinion. Before, the Tales series was among my favorites, but I was very disappointed with their last game, Tales of Arise. Its world has become linear and not as expansive as their previous games. Fortunately, its battle gameplay is still very good. I hope that in the next Tales game, they will expand the game even more.

Hoping for a new Xenoblade game from Monolith Soft in this year's Nintendo General Direct. And it should be a Switch 2 exclusive.

Yeah, Xenoblade 2 and 3 are amazing. I would have put Xenoblade 2 in first and 3 in second if I was ranking them.

Zeldafan64108d ago (Edited 108d ago )

The "worst" Xenoblade game is still better than 95% of games out there. Xenoblade 2 is my favorite rpg ever. All the Xenoblade games have incredible characters, soundtracks, voice acting, stories, world design and combat (save for Xenoblade 1 whose combat, while good, is not incredible).

What makes it even sadder is that if you jailbreak your Switch 1, it actually runs those games better than the Switch 2. Since you can, on the fly, change the rendering resolution and overclock the device to handle it.

I’m currently playing Xenoblade X like that and it’s great, no FPS drops, and even in handheld mode, the game looks very clear. Though, I have to say, I’m still a bit divided on whether I like or dislike the changes they made from the Wii U version. On one hand, everything looks cleaner and the models feel more alive, but on the other hand, it looks less unique.

Zeldafan64178d ago (Edited 178d ago )

Saying X looks less unique is not something I ever expected to read. I think the character models look quite a bit better in the Switch version (not that I thought they looked bad in the Wii U version). The world and monster design are some of the best I've ever seen in video games though I'll still give a slight edge to Xenoblade 2's world design. Leftherian Archipelago is my favorite location in any video game from a visual standpoint followed closely by endgame of Xenoblade 1.

Vits177d ago

If you think the Switch version models look unique, I have dozens of anime titles to sell to you.

Zeldafan64175d ago

I was talking about the world and monster design being unique, not the character models. Guess I should have made that clearer.
