There is a Monolithsoft "Project Legacy" that's being reported on as a "leak".
That would be a direct reference to the B.L.A.D.E. acronym in Xenoblade Chronicles X - Builders of the Legacy After the Destruction of Earth.

That's just in the English Treehouse localization, the real term employed in the script is "Logos". Which you know approx. what this reference to from the Xeno lore. 

+ The "Legacy" codename is completely different than what the devs were using for past codenames in the series which remained under a certain consistent logic. 

Anyway, it could for Xenoblade sure, but it could also be for something new.

Apparently Nintendo just hired a shitload of new staff to get ready for the Switch's successor.

Wasn't that already known from the last QA ? 

They hired like 600 peeps in the last year or so if I remember. Probably thinking of more since they're having a new building set by 2028.

Either way, it's nice to see Nintendo doing the opposite of other developers these days. It'd be ironic if some of the new hires were previously laid off from PlayStation or Xbox.
