TSA writes: "I’ve always kept half an eye on Xenoblade Chronicles, even though I’m not the world’s biggest RPG fan (Japanese or otherwise). After seeing some glowing comments from both reviewers and game developers, I decided to take the plunge and see what all the fuss was about.
To kick this piece off properly I should probably stress that it isn’t a review. As Xenoblade Chronicles clocks in at between 60 and 100 hours long, depending on side quests taken, a review would probably take me a good couple of months at least (I’m currently about ten hours in). The whole purpose of my rambling is to inform you all why the game 100% deserves your money, and perhaps is even worth buying a Wii for."
In a new financial presentation, Nintendo highlights Xenoblade Chronicles as one of several series seeing "dramatic sales growth on Nintendo Switch," joining Kirby, Pikmin, and Metroid. Compared to 1.41 million copies on 3DS and Wii U, Xenoblade Chronicles has collectively sold 7.17 million copies on Switch between Xenoblade Chronicles 2, 3, and Definitive Edition.
I have bought every game no matter the system. Hopefully the Switch 2 is powerful enough to give this world the detail it deserves
Nintendo has now published a special anniversary video celebrating 25 years of Monolith Soft. The developer has also opened a special 25th anniversary webpage featuring multiple commemorative wallpapers as well as a special message from Representative Director Hirohide Sugiura.
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.
Xenoblade Chronicles composer Kenji Hiramatsu reflects on his work and feels that it's "time for a fresh start."
XENOBLADE DESERVE YOUR MONEY
I've been playing it, and it's great! It certainly exceeded my expectations.
I think that the only thing that bothers me is the sky high number of quests. I think that instead of making 10 quests that tell us to kill monsters in a certain area, there should be only a big one for each area, with greater rewards.
Ninty, I want you to take my MONEY! Now bring it over d@mnit! D:
Nice.
Knew i shouldnt have read this article (i love in USA). Well, at least Japanese and Europeans can enjoy it.
GRRR!!! Damn this game sounds awesome!!!
