And here's something I hope comes out of this: I hope they take all the money they were going to use to market Star Fox and instead market Xenoblade Chronicles X. It's the most logical game to take the spotlight for the holidays. In the West anyway. It's an open world, science fiction RPG with a heavy emphasis on exploration and with some online elements. That's all marketable. And the aesthetics resonate with western designs in many ways, anime character models not withstanding.

This.

Some people say "oh but Xenoblade is niche", when really there's nothing about it that makes it niche. All it needs is proper marketing.


The characters faces are niche. Furthermore, I couldn't see Star Fox really appealing to anyone outside of Nintendo's established audience, Xenoblade is more likely to achieve this. They just gotta make sure they bundle it with Mario Kart, Splatoon or Mario Maker.
