Xenoblade creators working on Wii U title

Awesome!

i hope the new title is another xeno game

Japan get all the hardcore games, assuming that everyone in Western countries would rather just play recycled army games. Lets hope they don't make that ignorant mistake again :I

-crosses fingers- Baten Kaitos 3... Baten Kaitos 3...Baten Kaitos 3... Baten Kaitos 3...Baten Kaitos 3... Baten Kaitos 3...

I'm not even going to bother getting excited. There are so many great looking games for the Wii that aren't seeing the light of day here in the US that I'm done with Nintendo now.

We need Xenoblade first.

Good, for the japanese.

I'm sure we're getting Xenoblade in US.

@SaltyMeatballs I'm aware of how the Wii's region system works. I'm not saying that Nintendo gets extra "because it's an import." I'm saying that in this particular case, as stated by @Ardain, Nintendo will get sales from a system + a game, rather than just the game. If even a fraction of potential North American Xenoblade customers is considering this, it's no wonder that Nintendo will allow NoA to sit on its hind quarters (since the profit is covered elsewhere). I disowned Ninty's wack region system back when Tatsunoko vs. Capcom seemed un-localizable for copyright reasons. So NoE will get my game sale, but certainly not a console sale on top.

If you guys want Xenoblade in North America, join Operation Rainfall by preordering Monando (Xenoblade) on Amazon. It's currently the number one best selling game on the site. Make sure to tweet/write to Nintendo when you do so. They're expected to make an announcement about it sometime today...

@WintersMidnight, whoa man. Chill out. Two things: yes, you are right that the publishers handle localization and distribution. Also, I would say that someone who doesn't know that is most certainly not an 'idiot' or a 'moron'. That's very specific information, to be honest that most people don't really need or care to know. Also, for the record, it is "You're that stupid." You can call someone stupid if you want; it defeats the purpose if you misuse one of the most common words in the english language.

Nintendo seem to banking a lot on the success of this console. There seem to be quite a few games in the works. That's not a bad thing at all! The more developers on board the better. I just hope they don't over-do themselves to be met with slow sales.. Can't help but worry.

If Xenoblade's creators are making a game for the Wii U, it better get a North America release.

hope it comes out soon wanna try xenoblade

sweet I hope it gets localized soon

@Lamesy I don't think that's how it works. Wii isn't region free, people have to mod their Wii's to play import games, I am sure Nintendo doesn't want that and they don't make more money from import, you pay to whoever imports not extra to Nintendo. Nintendo of America are just being lazy asses. I am pleasantly surprised EU is getting good treatment whereas I'm shocked the biggest gaming market is being left out.

@Ardain "Which I plan to buy a EUR wii and import the game. No joke this is the Truth." And enablers like you are the reason Ninty doesn't even consider localizing. You've just promised to reward them with quadruple the profit in exchange for sitting on their butts and doing nothing. If you lack the willpower to stand by your principles, please just DON'T POST, bec. your statement only further hurts everyone's chance of localization.

Do you want either Xenoblade, The Last Story and/or Pandora's Tower to come to America? Read this: http://gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=161695 http://gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=161730 http://www.destructoid.com/letter-writing-campaign-for-last-story-pandora-s-tower-204505.phtml

Give us Xenoblade first, then I'll care.

Great, except Xenoblade still is only in Japan... I'll import if I have to but that's even more money, please just world wide release it already. BEFORE YOU GET TO WORK ON ANOTHER GAME. Seriously when will companies learn it's not smart to be in the middle of a huge piece of business, stop and say I want to do something else for a long period of time?

Too bad were not getting Xenoblade. Nintendo stated at E3 that they don't have any plans to release it stateside. Which I plan to buy a EUR wii and import the game. No joke this is the Truth.

If it's anything like Arc Rise Fantasia I'm in!

please Nintendo import xenoblade, the last story and pandora towers to the us because I don't want to be Zelda Skyward Sword the only game I need to dust my Wii.

Its nice to hear that a US release for Xenoblade is still in the works. To be honest when Nintendo announced the Wii U at E3 I was worried The Last Story, Pandoras Tower, and Xenoblade would be released on Wii U instead. Hoping all three will receive a North American release.

@WllDan7 Oh :P Obviously I've never played the game before. Still there has been lots of news of developers taking interest in the Wii U

meh who cares it wont likely come out here anyway. it might get an eu localization if they are super lucky other than that though were screwed. well at least we can play xenoblade in english after fricken importing it

Good for Japan I guess because we all know Reggie Kong will toss this aside in NA like Soma Bringer and Xenoblade.

Well, at least we Europeans get it soon.

@Super-Poke-Bros This is first party support. Nintendo owns them.

damn that really sucks

Nintendo actually owns Monolith Soft.

boo, i hate you monolith soft, i only have PS3 and i want to play xenoblade :(

Great news! Here's hoping for a NA release as well. Congrats to Europe, by the way. Lucky buggers. :) **Added**For the Xenoblade release, that is.**Added**

What about bring Xenoblade to NA first!!? god damn you Nintendo what are you waitting for? to localize it here is it too hard to do it :(

Looks like Nintendo is finally getting all the 3rd party support it always wanted.

That's great, looking forward to Xenoblade this September (in EU anyway :P)

I hope Xenoblade comes to NA. Can't wait to see this new title. Hope it comes to NA. Wonder if it's Baten Kaitos?

I'm still waiting for Xenoblade Chronicles...
