Xenoblade Chronicles in the US (1 Viewer)

[CaseyL]

For those of you Wii owners out there that are seriously underwhelmed by the complete lack of the RPG Genre on the console may have been excited about the announcement of 3 exclusive RPG games being Developed for the Wii: Xenoblade Chronicles, Pandora's Tower, and The Last Story. You may have been equally dissapointed when all three of these games had been announced as coming to europe, but not to the US. Why? I don't know. If you have been watching this story, however, you will find a group of gamers calling themselves Operation Rainfall have been earnestly pandering to nintendo to release these games in the US market. Now, Thanks to Gamestop directly confronting NOA about the title and offering to help with the expenditure of publishing the game in the US, Xenoblade Chronicles has been announced for a limited release in the US as a Gamestop exclusive, but is also available through the Nintendo online store. There are ponderings that this release experiment may result in the release of The Last Story in the US at least, so if you are interested in getting a really good RPG game on the Wii, please support by pre-ordering this game. Pre Order at Gamestop: Pre Order at Nintendo:
