I bet we get a new trailer for X this month. In a preview of whats to come for 2014. I'm not getting my hopes up, but it wouldn't surprise me. It seems to be the game garnering the attention of non-Wii U owners, they'd be smart to show it off.

Saga had way too many cutscenes for me, I never finished it.

I do admit, Xenosaga has a ridiculous amount of cutscenes, but the combat in the game makes up for how long they are. It's so addicting!!

God I hope so. I remember a while back my friend was all "L0L WIIU SUX BECUZ NO SKYRIM" and I showed him the X trailers. He shut up after that. He told me he actually kinda wanted a Wii U now, but he needed to know more about the game. I told him I'd keep him updated. That was back in October. He wants to talk about the game all the time, the only problem is there's nothing left to talk about(he hasn't played Xenoblade)

@TheLik98 I'm pretty glad that X exists. Lol I'm VERY glad it exists. It gives the U something pretty dang special

@DirkaDirka That's also true....I'll get around to finishing it someday. Though I heard Ep. II was a train wreck by comparison.

Well...train wreck is kind of an overstatement. It's definitely not as amazing as the first episode, but it's still a very entertaining RPG. I wouldn't really classify any of the episodes as "bad" games. Episode II is probably a 7/10 compared to the other two, which I would say are 9/10 games.

Argh. I've barely made a dent in Xenoblade. Need to finish it before X comes out (seriously I hope they give an actual name next time it's shown off. Sick of calling it "X").

Then Shulk is probably the character at the end of the first trailer, so are we getting some sort of mixed game of the Xeno series as a whole?

Well the character in the end of the 1st trailer definitely resembles Shulk but the former has green eyes and the latter has blue. But you know who else has green eyes? Fiora! You can piece the rest together.

@Miss_Dark Well the good thing is.... The chance of having a Nintendo Direct this month is pretty high AND the chance of Nintendo talking about Monolith's X during the Direct is pretty high, too

i've never played Xenoblade, and i don't think i ever will (mainly because of what happened with Gamestop), and i originally wasn't interested at all in this game, but wow. i'm suddenly interested.

What happened with GameStop?

Games like zenoblade are a big reason why I'm saddened that Wii games aren't put on the eshop or the Wii shop channel.

I hope we see more of the game this month at a ND.

WAT!

But the game looks to be quite a while after Xenoblade. There's no way the mechs would advance that much in such a short time. Shulk was what, 18? The kid in the first trailer looks about that age so assuming Shulk had his kid in his 20's that's only like 20-30 years away. One of the Gamexplain videos mentions this. I watch them from time-to-time. The one with Chuggaconroy is probably the most accurate as he actually finished xenoblade.

basically, they ripped the cellophane off some new copies of Xenoblade and they're selling them as used... for $90. i have nowhere else to get a copy, so...

I don't think that they did that. When I saw the 1000 or so copies show up on GS.com, I called around and they were used, because some of them were missing the instructions or case. Every GS in my state had legitimately used copies.

I ended up just buying a used copy off of craigslist for $70. I wanted to play it so I could have some form of what X is supposed to be. X is going to be better, but Xenoblade still has plenty of aspects that will be in the new game, as well.

my brother took my sister and i to a gamestop (we went there because she wanted mariokart wii) and i checked the used wii game section, and it was $80. and like @TheLilk98 , i'm not paying anything above $65 for a game. games are already expensive enough as it is, and being a teenager with no income, i can only actually buy 1 or 3 games a year.

Alright, guys. Do you think this game will sell really well in Japan and good everywhere else OR... do you think Japan's sales of this game will be wayyy more huge than everywhere else?
