I just pre-ordered the JP version! I'm really hyped to play this again! Put in countless hours into the Wii version and tried to do every single quest in the game on NG+ (I gave up halfway though, lol).

Anyone else hyped to play this legendary JRPG in 3D?!

Oh really? I was wondering why only the JP version was available for pre-order. I guess that's why. Wow, that sucks... :/

Ds Games!

I'm really tired of digital only games, I enjoy owning a copy of them. I missed out on an ace attorney game because of this and seems I will not be getting this either. I hope this digital only trend comes to an end but I doubt it will, I only see it getting worse from here.

Where did you hear this. I have not heard anything about this and when I looked just know I can't find anything on the internet about this. Out of curiosity I just went through the preorder steps on Amazon and at the moment they are making the assumption that they are shipping something and yes I was looking at the US version (that isn't to say that can't change).
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00T9Z8CHU/ref=gno_cart_title_0?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER

I don't know if I will end up getting this. I loved the Wii game but I put like 120-130 hours in the game and I really feel like this is a minimum 90 maybe 80 hour game. I just don't know if I would to invest that much time in replaying any game, I just have too may other things I would like to play.

Judging from what I've been reading online, there is a high likelihood there's going to be a large percentage of people who plan to scalp the game or keep it NiB for collecting purposes. It's unfortunate, but an obvious target for everyone who has bandwagoned on buying less distributed Nintendo products.

I don't plan to own this game as I've already played it, although not all the way through. I do have my eye on X though, which looks promising from the recent footage I've seen.

Just got a notification from Play Asia that my copy has shipped! Knowing PA, that means that I'll probably get it in May, lol. Really looking forward to it though! I'm curious to see if they've added anything new in the port but I'm fine either way, I'm just excited to play through this game again, in 3D.

(asked this in the nintendo direct thread bc the convo was sorta about it but might as well ask it here too bc more relevant)

How would y'all describe xenoblades gameplay? Someone told me the combat is like the tails of series, is that true? o:

I'm still on the fence if I should get it or not, I never really like those ridiculously way godly praised games (of the ones I've gotten just because of it that is).


nvm majin gave a great answer xD

I can :) I still need to look up words every now and then when I play RPGs but I'm at a point now where it only happens occasionally. I started studying the language in my spare time about 4-5 years ago. It's been a lot of work but also very rewarding. I never really bothered practicing stroke order though so I've been thinking about starting that soon.

I was excited for the game, but the fact that it's a downgrade has lessened that excitement. I think I'm going to pass and just play my Wii version. I wish they released a Xenoblade New 3DS, but sadly it didn't happen.

I think some textures have been downgraded and it doesn't run 100% as smooth as the Wii version. Overall, I heard it's a worthy port but the Wii version is superior. The point of buying this would be to play on the go. If you have the Wii version, then avoid this unless you are a collector/avid handheld fan.

I pre ordered it just because I missed out on the Wii version. I'm looking forward to it on the DS just so I can play it on the go. Plus with no prior play of the story I won't notice if its different from the Wii version :P

Playing through it now, not too far but I'm really liking it. The fact its seems like a decently long Adventure RPG on a handheld almost seems perfect for me. Gives me something to grind away time and it being fun at the same time. I'm really digging the controls too! Very natural and a good controller mapping for navigating the advanced menus!
