Very Nice!
I just ordered NPC Pikmin 2 from the UK. If playing that game works out without a hitch, I think I'll be pre-ordering Xenoblade!

Thanks for the update Rol.

Until you've played it, every game is a system seller!

Nice.

Europes Wii buying habbits don't fill me with high expectations in terms of sales though unfortunately, which will make NoA feel vindicated in their decision not to release it.

For those interested, the negative aspects mentioned were limited to a lack of a complex Gambit system for your AI buddies in battle and not that great looking character models.

Game doesn't come with a "some programming required" tag? Gee, that's terrible.

Some reason I got Xenoblade mixed with The Last Story. I thought the screenshots of Xenoblade were The Last Story. Pretty amateurish by my part... Not a huge RPG fan but I still am very interested in both these games since there really isn't too much else to look forward to for the Wii.
