Yes, I did, good sir. It was enjoyable as well. The Last Story is definitely not as long, but enjoyable for a whole bunch of different reasons.

Yeah, even at the level I was at, the final boss was a good challenge or I'm just not as cool as the other kids at the game. There's also a new game + feature, which I will probably play through very shortly, since I haven't really sat down and played it in a year.

About 15 hours in, just beat the boss in the Colony 6 Ether Mine. Loving the absolute shit out of the game. When I'm not playing it I'm thinking about playing it!
Oh and the music is insanely beautiful. Great soundtrack.

So you recommend modding? I've since been contemplating the idea, I just may go through with it.

I think it was worth it to play Xenoblade personalty. Plus the Wii is only $135.00 now so you have very little to lose. You will also be able to play the English translated Fatal Frame 4, Disaster: Day of Crisis, Another Code R and the One Piece games we didn't get.

The Wii also runs NES, SNES, Genesis, Master System and TurboGrafx-16 emulators great with classic controller support.

Once I've got some spare cash I'm going to import Xenoblade Chronicles and soft mod my Wii. It'll be a bit though because I want to get a new HDD for the modding process so I can put all my (legally acquired!) Wii games on it.
So says Mr. Stewart.

So I've played a couple of hours of Xenoblade. I love that you can save anywhere, and no random battles (but you will sometimes be targeted by monsters anyway).

So just over 50 hours into it and at Frontier village, soooo many quests. It's insane. Still loving the game though.

I'd love to play this game, and I'm very envious of Europe, but I'm too scared of having my system get bricked/banned if I modded it.
I have always been into importing and never did mod my Wii until last week because I didn't want to brick the console. After modding it and 3 of my friends this week I can say its really very easy and worth it. having all my games loaded on a USB HDD was worth it alone not to mention it can play imports! With the cost of a new Wii being so low now I say go for it.

I am only about 8 hrs into Xenoblade so far and I have to say its one of the best RPG's out there this gen. Its sort of like a hybrid offline MMO mixed with the very best parts of a Square Enix game! It has a ton and I mean a ton of side quests, Notorious Monsters (Rare Spawns)and talking and interacting with the people of the towns is rewarding as well. It also has a very large open word with everything you can see able to be explored!
This sounds rather similar to FFXI. Notorious Monsters were a light addiction of mine on that game. Has anyone played FFXI and can offer a comparison to Xenoblade? I may pick it up, it sounds right up my alley.

I picked up a copy of the game and it is a fantastic looking and sounding game for sure. 7 hours in and currently en route to Colony 6, very interesting story so far.

The MMO-style is not my favorite though, the constant treasure chest looting, hard to grasp equipment system and mindless fetchquests hamper my experience.

The fact that it is a Wii RPG and by far the best on the Wii is great but I had more fun with FF XII then Xenoblade so far.

Perhaps the game will become better later on, because the mindless attack spamming isn't my favorite thing to do when you are already pressed for time (job doesnt allow me to play many consoles games)

Received a new character now which helps with healing as well. I kept dying over and over before but figured I needed to upgrade my skills.

Should have read the manual/tutorials.....

Have the PAL version, although haven't played it yet. I'm looking forward to it though, it REALLY looks like Final Fantasy XII, which, although I have yet to finish, I love.

So were you waiting patiently? Did you give up hope for this release and import? Or have you gone off Nintendo completely?

I am so glad Nintendo of America has decided to localize Xenoblade. Now, I will not have to import it.

I suppose it is possible Operation Rainfall actually helped out, or maybe Nintendo of America made their decision independently of Operation Rainfall's efforts. I'm not sure. I'm just glad I can play it : )

I'm glad they are releasing it state-side. Took a while, but it'll be worth the wait.

I completed Xenoblade like 3 days ago, one of my favorite JRPG's of all time! I got frustrated at the final boss and went totally bananas, did an all out DPS party setup with Dunban, enigmatic party number nr. 7 (spoiler so I won't say who) and Shulk and the god damn thing just died like in an instant, I didn't even care about the adds! Dunban just evasion tanked like a boss :~D Love how flexible the combat system is. I kinda wanna go through the new game+ to collect everything and do all the side quests. It took me 65 hours to beat the game and after the first 20 hours I didn't bother with the side quests because I thought it was kinda stupid they didn't have objective markers on the map. Awesome game, everyone should play this!

I've been playing for a bunch of hours and I gotta say this was well worth the wait. The game is beautiful! The settings are gorgeous and the music is absolutely breath taking. The characters are great and the story is gripping. I'm running the game with component cables at 480p and 240Hz and its looking stunning and smooth. Some of the best graphics on the Wii for sure.

If you haven't already... go out and buy this game!
