Support NeoGAF

[Quadrangulum]

I cannot express how happy I am. This came just when I lost all hope.

 

[Feep]

Everyone, watch this, and be amazed (locale spoilers):

Xenoblade Field Exploration

 

[Linkhero1]

Hope they announce it for NA soon. I'm not into RPGs but this game has intrigued me.

 

[Dambrosi]

See? When in doubt, trust NoE to deliver

Spoiler

eventually

. Next up - The Last story and Night Of Sacrifice!

Nintendo Europe: The Role-Player's Best Friend™

 

[moozoom]

Fantastic. I think I wanted to play this even more than the last story...
Makes me hopeful for the future of my poor starved Wii, and also for the future translations on 3ds (since us imports are no longer a possibility)

 

[Ushojax]

Hope they announce it for NA soon. I'm not into RPGs but this game has intrigued me.

No way this won't be coming to NA. It's been on the release list for ages.

 

[FINALFANTASYDOG]

Oh really? Media blackouts are such a wonderful thing.

Other random stats:

On amazon.co.jp Star ranking is:

5 - 207 people
4 - 46
3 - 20
2 - 13
1 - 7

Famous Japanese ranking user review site gives it a 90, making it the highest ranking wii game that has a fair number of reviews.

[Willy Wanka]

Great news. My Wii will be getting some more love this year after all.

 

[Alexios]

Everyone, watch this, and be amazed:

Xenoblade Field Exploration

You mean everyone don't watch this now that the game's coming, unless you want all areas spoiled before then.

 

[duckroll]

I swear to god, if this is an April Fools joke, I'm gonna kick some friggin' babies. @_@

Don't worry, we have a secret weapon: Permban.

Everyone, watch this, and be amazed:

Xenoblade Field Exploration

Holy fucking shit.

 

[neoanarch]

Or that.

 

[KefkaTaran]

Plz to America now plz.

Also, watched about five minutes of that YouTube video and now feel the need to bold and caps my request: PLZ

 

[cw_sasuke]

but nintendo sucks ....nvm. great.

Day 0.

 

[VOOK]

Team America, Fuck yeah.... oh wait...

 

[Cloudius12]

I'm glad its not called Monado Chronicles.

NOE > NOA

 

[Alexios]

If this made it then I'm sure The Last Story will be coming here also. Thank you Nintendo, I never doubted you (ok, maybe a little)!

 

[cosmicblizzard]

Awesome. Didn't like how the battle system looked like FF12, but the story and exploration might be worth it alone. Hope an NA announcement will follow.

 

[Electivirus]

The soundtrack alone has me excited for this. Sooooo good.

 

[speedpop]

Very nice.

 

[syoaran]

Nintendo of Europe

Today, I love you ~

 

[Van Owen]

I can play this on my modded Wii if NOA decides to be assholes and not put it out here, right?

 

[Kenka]

 

[Smiles and Cries]

NOA can delay Zelda and give me this, this I want much more

 

[Rush2thestart]

Its too bad the Wii market is so dead in Europe that this will bomb epicly and give Nintendo reason not to localize these types of titles anymore.

Still, at least this is getting localized. Personally, Im not happy until NA is confirmed.

Monoliths last game, Disaster, did come to Europe but not NA. So I'm not exactly jumping with joy at this point.

 

[Dambrosi]

Awesome. Didn't like how the battle system looked like FF12, but the story and exploration might be worth it alone. Hope an NA announcement will follow.

Really? 'Coz I freakin' LOVED it!

[Cloudius12]

dammit I looked everywhere and everything is pointing back to this thread, this better not be some damn joke.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Welp, guess US is screwed. Europe first = no one else gets.

NOE > NOA

it should be Pokemonado Chronicles, it's the only way the game will sell

You guys got Excite Bots and Glory of Heracles!

 

[Bear]

Oh fuck yeah. If this doesn't make it to NA I will definitely import it. I'm just happy to get an official translation, and it has dual language support too.

 

[Kenka]

Also, lol @ Reggie.

 

[zlatko]

I forget, but can you USA Wii's play European versions of games or are they region locked ?

Xenoblade, The Last Story, and the new Zelda would be the reason I'd get a Wii again to play all 3.

 

[vareon]

(See: Another Code Wii, Last Window)

Also Disaster, Inazuma Eleven.

But yeah, will import even so. I just need more confirmations!

 

[slaughterking]

Hm, I don't believe it yet. >.>

 

[Kilrogg]

Quick question to people who played it: how long does it take to go from point A to point B in the game? My big gripe about many 3D games is that the worlds are too big and the characters too slow, and the world of Xenoblade looks so huge that I'm really worried about that. Do you quickly get fast stuff like vehicles, mounts and teleportation spells?

 

[Linkhero1]

I forget, but can you USA Wii's play European versions of games or are they region locked ?

Xenoblade, The Last Story, and the new Zelda would be the reason I'd get a Wii again to play all 3.

Wii is region-locked. Only way to play it would be to install homebrew on your Wii, but then again it might be announced for NA soon. If I recall correctly, didn't Reggie say something about games being announced before E3?

[Fritz]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!

That off my chest, I will now READ the thread.

later

Endless Ocean and Sin and Punishment 2 both came out in Europe first but both came to America. This will too, it's already on the release list. Nintendo aren't going to spend that kind of dough on voiceovers and text translation only to release it in Europe. That only happened once with Disaster, and that was because of the hurricanes in the US more than anything else.

 

[CharlesSurge]

Hooray! Now let's see if NoA can come up with a way to muck this up.

 

[BocoDragon]

Getting deju vu of the time European magazines announced Mother 3 localization for PAL....

 

[Smiles and Cries]

XD and the thing is I really really mean it

 

[Vinterbird]

Getting deju vu of the time European magazines announced Mother 3 localization for PAL....

Well, I would be extremely surprised if the Scandinavian PR head for Nintendo would do that.

 

[Despera]

Great news to wake up with. Will buy.
