This game is gonna CONSUME people, HaHa!

DivineAssault 3125d ago

Yep.. Its a damn shame people dismiss the wii u... It has so many great exclusive games and people complain that theres nothing refreshing to play.. I got the CE of this mofo paid for.. Now its just the waiting game..

IAmTheBest353125d ago

one of my favorite things about this game is that you can rest assured that you arent receiving a buggy unfinished product with cut content that is sold on the side. its awesome!

ShinMaster3125d ago (Edited 3125d ago )

My only issues with the game is the desaturated color palette from 2006 and the quality of character models.

and comments like IAmTheBest35's ^

IAmTheBest353125d ago

shinmaster, why would you have an issue with my comment?

DivineAssault 3120d ago

I dont care for the characters faces but that isnt any indication that its going to be a bad game by any means.. It will grow on me in time and its not like you will be staring at them the whole time while playing.. Fun is what matters and thats something nintendo exclusives know how to do as well as stand the test of time.. I can go back to the 8 bit era and still enjoy their titles.. Not like the games that go for hyper realism that end up being uglier/buggier as technology advances..

This is the game I've been excited about on Wii U

N4g_null3125d ago

This game is going to slow down development for real. LoL.

I think this is the real reason zelda was delayed. This game is also the reason why I'm giving starfox so much flak. Seriously zelda has competition finally. I can't wait to see what else these guys come up with. I could also use some transforming amiibos too.

Best new ips this year. Some serious heavy hitters here. I'm very curious about the development out put of nintendo going forward. Combining teams is going to be interesting.

Ck1x3125d ago

It's funny that most people equate a WiiU owner to buying only Mario and Zelda games. But it's games like this, Bayonetta 2, Pikmin, Wonderful 101 and SMTxFE that got me to buy a WiiU. I'm a much bigger Zelda and Metroid fan than I am into Mario games.

3-4-53125d ago

I hope this game does amazing and everyone loves it but I'm not excited for it anymore, and it's not the games fault.

After playing 10-15 hours of Xenoblade Chronicles 3DS, I came to the conclusion that I just can not stand the battle system at all.

I really enjoyed the setting,atmohsphere, story, voices, characters, music, but that battle system I just couldn't get into it no matter how hard I tried.

So while I admit the series is really good, it's just not for me....as long as they keep that battle system.

Since this new one has a similar battle system I most likely won't like it either, regardless of how good the rest of the game is or looks.

I still really hope this sells well enough to get another one on the NX.

Just because I didn't enjoy it as much as I could have doesn't mean others shouldn't or won't enjoy it....I hope they do.

benji1013125d ago

If you did not like the battle system in the first game nothing here well change your mind. It is a great game but... I wish it was more hands on.

DivineAssault 3125d ago

It took me time to adjust to it but i eventually loved the game after giving it around 8 hours which is long but was worth it..

deafdani3124d ago

Yeah, you're right: if you didn't like the battle system in the original Xenoblade, you won't like this new game, either.

Me, I loved the first one, so Xeno X is my most anticipated game this year.

Anyway, pretty cool from your part for aknowledging that this just isn't your cup of tea and wishing other people to enjoy it. I wish more people were like you.

Well said bubble for you, sir.

Cannot wait!!!!!! One month to go!!!

Metallox3125d ago

One month to go, damn. February 2013, when Xeno X was announced during a Direct, feels quite like yesterday.

Concertoine3125d ago

Feels like almost 3 years ago to me :P

Finally i can play it soon, a game that was originally slated for 2014...

desy643125d ago

My heart almost stopped then...

Now I'm almost finishing my 3rd run on the oldie XC, while I wait...
It looks awesome by the way, is it 60fps?

Big_Game_Hunters3125d ago (Edited 3125d ago )

It was on January 23rd. First direct of 2013, Last game shown. You always remember the moment you fall in love.

JacketsNest1013125d ago

That feels like ages ago. So much has happened in my life since then...

Holy crap, this game honestly gives me shivers every time I see it.

HentaiMasterRace3125d ago

Looking at this kinda makes me wish that they would put Xenoblade Chronicles on the NA Wii U eshop.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory3125d ago

they probably waiting before the game release to do that.

DivineAssault 3125d ago

This, star fox, and zelda to complete my wii u list.. Then time to get pumped for the NX

Great news it shows that Nintendo intends to continue developing ports of AAA games to its next gen platform

H92d ago

Buying studios from embracer now is a great deal, they must be dirt cheap at this point, Nintendo is a opportunist, they wait until someone fall so they get their best deal

OtterX1d 19h ago

That is some serious brain gymnastics you have going on there. 🤔

H91d 16h ago

I didn't do any gymnastics I can assure you, honestly I don't know why you think that, not hating I seriously don't see why you think that

ZeekQuattro1d 14h ago

Yeah I don't know where that came from. It's rare for Nintendo to flat out aquire studios. Guess they were trying to be edgy but why flex on this studio. 🤣

Kneetos18h ago

At least they are safer from layoffs with Nintendo then any other company

banger882d ago

I hope someone buys Piranha Bytes, their future isn't looking good right now. I love their RPGs, they're janky as f***, but they have heart and soul.

Relientk771d 21h ago

Nintendo saw the Mortal Kombat 1 Switch port and were like, "Yeah, these guys are worth acquiring."

You can't make this crap up lol

Profchaos1d 20h ago

Mortal Kombat 1 was never going to port well I'm sure they told wb it wasn't going to work but wb wants that sweet sweet 140 million install base

In the end wb approved the project cleared the milestones and allowed the product to release

SonOfOsiris1d 16h ago

Yeah this guys ported MK11 which is great, Hogwarts Legacy which is great, and MK1 is now ok, play it every day

How Many More Victims, Like Garry's Mod, Will Nintendo's Hurtful Crusade Create?

Hanzala from eXputer: "As Nintendo takes out 20 years' worth of stuff from Garry's Mod, I watch in shock, thinking why it continues to hurt and discourage its fans."

RiseNShine18d ago (Edited 18d ago )

The irony that some of the most disgusting business practices come from companies like Disney or Nintendo, i can't even begin to understand what terrible damage was Garrys Mod making to Nintendo bottom line, imho they're getting pretty nervous about where they're heading in the future, handhelds are no longer something exclusive to Nintendo, from Steam Deck to many others, now you can play the latest games and pay a fraction of the price on Steam sales, so it's up to their exclusives, which just on their own would make hard to justify purchasing a closed overpriced hardware with outrageous price policies (Super Mario Odyssey is still 60 euro 6 years later!), and as a home console they're always underperforming compared to Sony or Xbox.

gold_drake18d ago (Edited 18d ago )

i cam guarantee you, that their exclusives alone is what drives switch sales. they sell in the 10s of millions of copies.

nintendo created their franchises to be sort of nostalgia driven, exclusive only on nintendo.

people will always buy the pkmn games as they always bring in new younger fans amd is family friendly

mario kart, the same thing, mario games in general.

zelda games are system sellers. animal crossing for the casual gamers.

nintendo doesnt need third vame devs essentially. they made sure with the switch and the limitations that they looked more to pc ps and xbox.

its sad, but nintendo is more than fine with what they're doing. they positioned themselves to appeal to the more casual gamers.

but to your point, im not sure why they're doing this rly.

Inverno18d ago

Look at how they handled Nintendo games being streamed or uploaded on YouTube in the past. They killed Yuzu and Citra even when they had nothing to do with ToTK being leaked, not to mention it was basically unplayable on emulation the week it was leaked. Smash Bros tournament, that was fairly recent. They shut down their online services without any care for purchases made. I bought a switch after skipping their last 2 consoles and handhelds but I don't plan on buying anything Nintendo in the future. They take things to the extremes, they legitimately hate their fans. They're honestly right up there with the likes of Acti, EA, and Ubi, only difference is that they disguise themselves as being family friendly all the while being shady.
