Haha, first Walmart now Amazon? Looks like it won't be coming to the US after all.

No, silly - it's Gamestop exclusive.

Infernostew5276d ago (Edited 5276d ago )

Actually it's exclusive to gamestop and nintendo's website (probably Nintendo stores like the one in NYC too). I cancelled my preorder from Amazon and advised them on the situation with the game a couple weeks ago.

How much fail can Nintendo handle in one year...Jeez Cause, everyone knows that gamestop is the most trustworthy when it comes to video games.

GillHarrison5276d ago

A game with a niche audience is already a hard sell, putting a game where the average consumer most likely won't ever see it is a haggard sell.

I guess if you want to play The Last Story or Pandora's Tower you'd better mod your Wii to play EU games, that is if you haven't already.

i got mine preordered from gamestop. i think everyone should preorder when you have the chance cause once the game is out i dont think gamestop will have that many extra copies left lying around and be prepared to see this game go for like around $100.

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.

Zeldafan64110d ago (Edited 110d 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.

Zeldafan64181d ago (Edited 181d 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.

Vits180d ago

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

Zeldafan64178d ago

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