Gamestop have stocked up on used copies of the extremely rare XenoBlade Chronicles for the Wii. However many suspect the games aren’t used at all.
Xenoblade Chronicles composer Kenji Hiramatsu reflects on his work and feels that it's "time for a fresh start."
Tetsuya Takahashi has revealed his plan to make the next Xenoblade vastly different from previous games.
I liked the Xenoblade X formula. It takes awhile, but opening up Mechs was amazing. Especially once you can fly them, and use them in battle. You have to put some time into the game to do it, but it's worth it!
Also, the graphics were more realistic than the other games. Still looks good today, just a lot more pop-in than is acceptable today, hell even too much for back then. It wasn't game breaking though.
Xenoblade 1-3 and X are so great. That said, I'm ready for them to do a big change up.
Some of the best Switch JRPG games out there include the epic Xenoblade Chronicles to the hard-as-nails Dark Souls Remastered.
Me being a Playstation guy and a huge JRPG fan, I can say that the only franchises I actually miss that are on Switch are The Fire Emblem series and The Xenoblade Chronicles series. I've played neither but I've heard good things. I've seen people play Xenoblade Chronicles games on youtube, and it seems like they think it's a big deal so I'm curious.
I agree with top 1, for me xenoblade chronicles 3(and 2) is one of the greatest jrpg to date. It's like the feeling of playing ff7 on ps1 for the first time again. Imagine if XC3 was done with ps5 graphics, that will be magical. I might get the xc remaster before the year ends or after I got the platinum trophy of GoW ragnarok.
I see wat u did der!
That's rather shady.
Still kicking myself for not grabbing a copy (or ten, really) when the game originally released.
Terrible article and Poorly researched. For starters, a lot of people don't know about Club Nintendo or care to deal with it. I would estimate you have a 50% chance of getting a used copy with a working code and maybe a 30%+ chance of getting a working PSN / Xbox code.
Since people are going to wonder about my claim of poor research, well it seems there IS a difference between these games and the older games. The original cases seem to have Wii pressed above the disc, where as these have Nintendo up there. Many suspect that this is proof of them being reprints and is better proof than Club Nintendo coins being unused and cases looking good (how many people really mess with their cases? Mine sits on a shelf from the moment I open it till the day I sell it or move it).
Furthermore, this article does NOT account for how GameStop stocks games. A while back Xenoblade was converted to use, so these "reprints" are considered used by the official system. Since we don't know for a fact (they could just be a box they found) they're in fact reprints or how they came to acquire them in the first place, it's wrong for a news site to automatically cast GameStop in a shameful light.
Long story short, these are STILL cheaper than what it was going for on eBay and will at the very least continue to drive prices down. Can't say I agree with it if they're in fact reprints, but you can bring the cost down to $65 or so dollars with promo codes.
they basicly kept all of these games in the warehouse and when nintendo stopped to making the game gamestop decided to release all of the games they were hiding so they can pump the price up
Gamestop? Scam..... NNnnnnooo. really, lol. :/
