Forums - Nintendo - Will Xenoblade X "outshine" Zelda Wii U??

I think just the fact that we have a relatively new Nintendo IP with only one game under its belt so far already going toe-to-toe with freaking ZELDA is pretty amazing in itself.

Let's be honest here, from what we've seen from both worlds, Xenoblade Chronicles X trumps it big time. Gameplay wise I can't really say much as I haven't played Xenoblade. I'm probably going to enjoy Zelda more though.

I don't think I've ever seen such an impressive world in a game. Now if XBX had Zelda U's grass that would be so much win lol.

Agreed.

I'd go so far as to say it's one of the most "next gen" looking games I've seen so far on any system, solely due to its gargantuan seamless world.

I strongly agree with you.

I say that's just because we have seen more of xeno x. zelda should match it in scale (or at least be huge enough that any difference doesn't matter) and xenoblade will take the first spot in enemy numbers/design.

Look, I think Xenoblade is a bit overhyped and the find the fact that people here think it is going toe-to-toe with Zelda ridiculous. 

You mean in terms of subjective quality, critical reception, or sales?

Truthfully, I have my doubts that in NA we will even see both XCX and Zelda Wii U this year but I am hoping I am wrong.

A fall season with both those games (just maybe Bravely Second and/or the new Fire Emblem) will probably detrimental to a number of our personal lives however.

Replace NA with "the West", and I'm right there with you. It seems too good to be true.
