This is one of my favorite flawed games ever. 

Pretty much what I think. 



My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

I would love to see it remastered on NX. I wouldn't be shocked in the least if it pulls off 1080p/60 with massive improvements in textures.

While we dont know yet how much horsepower NX will have, I suspect 1080p/30fps is more likely. And honestly, even as a 60fps junkie, I think for the kind of game it is, XCX works just fine at 30fps. 

While I personally dislike remasters, I think one is likely in the case of XCX and other Wii U games which may not have sold as well as Nintendo might have liked due to Wii U's small install base. (Tropical Freeze is another likely candidate)

Even if it doesn't go with 60 fps there will be lots of other things that could be fixed. The pop in could be completely wiped out. They could add in vehicle collision instead of the cars going through you, and they could do other things like improve the lighting. I remastered version on NX would be awesome. I hope it happens.

I'm thinking that's the direction they will take; keep it 30fps and buff resolution, draw distance, textures, etc. If NX is enough of a power boost over Wii U to handle significant improvement, that is.

Monolith Soft might not always nail the story department (which they did in XC), but they always nail the world building. Simply amazing.

I've played over 100 hours and still haven't beaten the game D:

Got really annoyed with the Blood Lobsters, but I plan to pick this game up again to finish it

I'm in the exact same situation. There's so much to do before I want to consider progressing in the story. And I wonder if I ever find all of those bloody lobsters.

I do consider myself a Xeno expert (sorry if that makes me come off as arrogant, whatever), I beat all the Xeno games, numerous times (my recent playthrough Xeno X has me at 150+ hours and I'd be glad to post. In fact I posted both my lvl 70 and 90 Ares. Second play through).

It's part 1 of a series, I'll take any bet on it whatsoever.

Amazing game, the best post content ever.

After getting really angry with Nintendo, I decided I was done with the WiiU and gave it to my niece, cause the poor girl broke her PS2.
If they remaster Xenoblade in the NX and the thing gets some form of release in Brazil, then maybe it is something I may consider playing. It sure looks like a cool game.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

No, you will simply HAVE to buy another Wii U to play. It was announced Jan 2013, there is no excuse. If you choose to not buy it, then you miss out, simple as that.

I guess I will miss it then man, it is Nintendo NX or PSVR to me in the near future. I will probably buy one of them at june next year.

The WiiU is history to me, just like my PSVita. I am no collector by the way. Once I cease to play a console, I give it away.
