I agree...Xenoblade has much of what I would like to see in Zelda. That used to be the case for me with Final Fantasy. It's nice to see a Nintendo studio producing a game of this style.

Monolith Soft helped make Skyward Sword's graphics lol.

As the publisher, the blame is nearly 100% on Nintendo for lack of supply. If there were plenty of copies, the game would have dropped in price, allowing more consumers to buy it as the price fell into their perceived value brackets. Simple application of theory of economics... Of course this wouldn't have stopped all piracy because we live in an entitled generation where some spoiled people think entertainment is an entitlement they deserve for free rather than a luxury to pay for. Hah.

I know they did but what I said was Zelda should take some stuff from Xenoblade like huge worlds and more villages/cities.

1 Pirated copy does not mean 1 lost sale.

OT: The game is awesome. I don't know why some people pay much attention to graphics, the plot is really good, so is the gameplay, ....you don't need more in a RPG, do you? I mean look at FFXIII, the game looks beautiful, but it's crap. I probably won't finish that one as it was a bad experience.

They did a fantastic job with this one! (graphically, Gameplay and story)

Graphics are important to me. I like nice scenery. If I decide to go for a drive, I will pick a twisty coastal road through mountains in ocean over a boring freeway any day. I also like clear images, watching HD is far better than blurred out SD images, particularily on a large television. Great graphics can help you get lost in the wonder of a story. That's not to say they are everything...I too was bored with FFXIII... but they are important.

You really should be snatching both of those up immediately. And laughing your ass off at the fool who traded them in.

Looking for a copy.

That would probably work if Nintendo manages to make the Zelda world several times more interesting. Running around vast empty fields is boring to me, unless those vast empty fields are on the leg of a continent-sized titan.
