the idea is already amazing and it looks perfect, now all that's left are gameplay, story and fun to see if this is the greatest of all time!

goodbyes are a sad part of life but for every end there's a new beggining so one must never stop looking forward to the next dawn

I just realized how much the thing at the end looks like a mechon.

I'd consider Xenoblade to be the Chrono Trigger. (making Ni No Kuni our Earthbound?)

I want X to be the Final Fantasy VII. As in from a popularity standpoint.

...yes. Yeah. Not even joking, if completely self-aware on the likelihood of that happening.

It's a shame Monolith isn't getting much more attention. Xenoblade was basically a love letter to every 90s JRPG fan out there. It delivered everything that everybody wanted out of a successor to the PS1 era of JRPGs, and nobody played it, because Nintendo of America decided to only release 500,000 copies in North America. That game should have been in every household in the 'verse.

to be fair, considering only recently have console JRPGs come back to being relevant to even much of its own audience (FF and maybe SMT aside), it wasn't gonna be a huge hit no matter what happened. Especially on the Wii at that point.

I'm hopeful X's sales will be doubled now that Nintendo actually seems to be actively making the game look important.

To be honest I think Xenoblade meh sales aside brought alot of attention back to the JRPG genre. That with Ni NO Kuni and the amount of tales games really helped the genre make a bit of a come back.

Right now we have quite a few next-gen JRPGs (or game with similar playstyles on the horizon).

X

Final Fantasy XV

Kingdom Hearts III

Wonder Flick

Project Phoenix

Cosmic Star Heroine

Soul Saga

Shin Megami Tensi X Fire Emblem

Considering adding Pokemon to the list but those games are seemingly immune to JRPG fatigue. Monster Hunter 4 and Vraverly defaut are already out so didn't put them either,

WAT!

Are you kidding?! Xenoblade did incredibly well! Especially for the circumstances. It was a JRPG that was released with very limited stock(thanks a lot, Nintendo) on a console that was already at the end of its life cycle. I won't say any more.

Ya, Xenoblade did really well. There were limited copies, but they all sold, pretty much.

Destiny looks to be the new FPS to want. It looks like Halo + CoD + MMO stuff to me, and that's if you're even thinking about buying a FPS game.
