Topic	Are you getting Xenoblade Chronicles: Definitive Edition this Friday?
adjl 05/26/20 8:39:15 AM #28:	LinkPizza posted... I dont think it was on the Wii U. It had a very quiet Wii VC release on the WiiU, presumably because of how much trouble a lot of people had finding a Wii copy (at least until Gamestop mysteriously found a whole bunch of "used" copies that they then started selling for $90 after watching the game go for $120+ online for six months >.>). The 3DS and Switch releases have gotten a lot more promotion than that did. LinkPizza posted... Xenoblade Chronicles X was on the Wii U, though. But that was a different game (from the same series)... I'm not even sure I'd say that X was from the same series. It's similar enough to qualify as a spinoff, but the fundamental gameplay structure, art style, and stories are very different, particularly where the way its story ended very much set up further sequels to that story in particular. By contrast, Xenoblade 2 was much more similar to the first game, making it much easier to say that it's in the same series. I_Abibde posted... I might be getting it this Friday if I can ever get into my Game Stop. This is also a factor in delaying my purchase. This is one I'll buy a physical copy of, but I'm not even sure any local EBGames are open yet, and I don't really feel like having it shipped. I probably won't get it until I can walk into a store and buy it, especially where I've got no shortage of stuff to play now (particularly with PSO2 coming out tomorrow). --- This is my signature.
