RoboAwesome.com ~ Xenoblade Chronicles | First Impressions (Wii)

RoboAwesome:
For a few months, rabid Nintendo owners across the globe were petitioning the publisher to release a series of “hardcore” RPGs in the United States. Xenoblade Chronicles was one of the central titles in this effort known as “Operation Rainfall”, but it failed to influence Nintendo’s decision to exclude North America from this game’s release. This behemoth of a game did not make it Stateside, but thanks to being translated into English for the European Union release ,and the ingenuity of internet hackers, I have had the pleasure of playing this game.

Why has this not been localized?

PygmelionHunter5041d ago

Probably because Wii Play Motion and Zelda will cover all the sales they need to do, it's a fucking sin, I know...

RoboRyan5042d ago

I want to play this so bad and would prefer to not have to result to "stealing" the game to do it.

LoaMcLoa5041d ago (Edited 5041d ago )

Import it and use Gecko? :) Works like a charm

RoboSpiff5042d ago

my favorite series of all time now, Xc3 was top tier

Zeldafan64256d ago

I've got about 1500 hours into all 4 Xenoblade games. It's now tied with Zelda as my favorite series. We need a Xenoblade Warriors game.

Best JRPG series of the last 5 years imo

repsahj630d ago

I agree 100%. My top JRPG so far, together with Baldurs Gate 3 and FF16.

autobotdan630d ago (Edited 630d ago )

There is no together at the top. There is only one top jrpg series. Xenoblade Chronicles series is alone at the top

raWfodog630d ago (Edited 630d ago )

I like the Xenoblades series but my ‘top’ series would be either the Trails series or Persona series. Just too many good games for me to just pick one series though, so I say play them all lol.

autobotdan630d ago

You are hereby excommunicated the church of Xenoblade Chronocology

CappyBlack629d ago

I'm not huge into JRPGs, but my favorite is easily the Persona series. It's all opinion though. Xenoblade is a great series.

repsahj630d ago

XC4 for Switch 2 for the win!! So excited!

phoenixwing630d ago

Also they might port over xenoblade x to the switch 2
