Thanks.  Didn't mean to skim over that.  Internet is laggy as hell and the page barely loaded as I scrolled to the bottom.  Well that would be a nice fit..and support the idea that Zelda U would make a 2015 release.

Now, let's hope for the release date to be brought forward.

First half of 2015, Zelda later half works well for me.

Baten Kaitos was a good IP from Monolith, but I'm hoping their next game resembles Chrono Trigger more than Chrono Cross.  Not to say Baten Kaitos had any resemblance to Chrono Cross other than its visual style, but I want something that feels and looks more like Chrono Trigger next from Monolithsoft.

I'm pretty sure I read that Monolith is composed of two studios now; one for major projects like X, another that assists with the production of EAD games, like Skyward Sword and Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

It's Nintendo, they do weird shit, haha.

online wow I did not know it had online.
Ok this went from being a maybe purchase to a must purchase for me.
Ive never played Xenoblade though.

Well, I don't think that is easy to predict. Before Xenoblade Chronicles they made Disaster:Day of Crisis. They don't have much old IPs to reuse, as Namco still have rights to the older stuff before Nintendo. So a new IP might be well possible or another Disaster or Xenoblade. Hard to say really. I would think new IP, but there is no sign in any direction.

Then get your Wii ready and play it. Xenoblade Chronicles was great without an online-mode.

Well the franchise already uses an MMO inspired combat system, so online play seems like a good fit.
