I've been warned for ridiculous reasons on it. For example one guy was asking where to find a certain key sphere on Final Fantasy X. I said where the best place is, and my post got deleted by the mods. The posters after me, who said the exact same thing as I, didn't get deleted... Made absolutely no sense.

Yeah. I cleaned it up as much as I could, and it seems to work perfectly. I need to get a Motion+ controller for Skyward Sword anyway, so it didn't matter much if it didn't.
Need to get a component cable too >_<. I'm in blurro-vision atm. Even in blurro-vision it looks pretty stunning. Kudos to Nintendo for putting so much into the physical package. I hope physical media never dies.

I just don't understand it. If they ban here what they ban for over at gamefaqs, these forums would be barren.
I mean there is a big ass thread here that shows you in "detail" no less how to softmod your Wii.

I guess gamefaqs is trying to clean house..
Clearly I'm not going to be playing Xenoblade on my notebook.. processor just can't keep up.
despite being a quad, the low clock speed is an issue.. Desktop it is..

Just got an email from 365game saying "we noticed that you are in the USA, Xenoblade is a PAL game and will not work on a USA system. If you would like to cancel your pre-order, reply to this email, otherwise we will ship Xenoblade on Monday"
Haha, I wonder how many of those emails went out.

Just don't utter softmod over there, in any context, or you'll get your IP banned!
Also, I got a $1.50 charge on the card. I don't know if thats dollar conversion or a custom fee. I hope its from customs, that means its passed the border?

Unless there is some wild CE or something, I'll be passing, and I'm sure half the Americans in this thread will too.
I find it hard to believe that it's customs. You'd be charged slightly more than that. Not to mention, how in the world would they get your card?RPGCrazied said:Just don't utter softmod over there, in any context, or you'll get your IP banned!

True that. It's probably a bank fee.

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
I wouldn't expect incredible sales numbers. It would be a nice surprise but the game didn't exactly top the charts in Japan where you'd think it would be more appealing. So while I think it will do well, I think it will do well for what it is, rather than compete with your average AAA top seller in the charts. Although that would be nice to see, fat chance.

I certainly don't think a huge percentage of the folks who wanted the game imported it, but I think it's probably enough to lessen the sales impact over here if NoA were to publish it.
It's still baffles me, though. Why wouldn't they just sell the publishing rights to a third party? They could have easily written a contract that would allow them exclusive publishing rights in the future if it had done well over here. And that would have cost NoA next to nothing.
Gahhhhhhh now I'm angry all over again.

It did top the charts in Japan.

Only because sales of everything were low though... 80k #1 was hardly huge. Then the next week it was like 20k. Then it was off the top ten for good.slaughterking said:It did top the charts in Japan.
So we can assume what, 150k total as a best case scenario in its homeland? What would it have to reach in its first month to top a Europe-wide chart?

Just got back with the CE edition.
The GAME store in Newcastle had very limited numbers of posters so I was only able to get one. They literally only had 1 titans piece, 1 character piece and 3 of the games cover.
I chose the character piece since it's a nice piece of artwork whilst the titan piece isn't much and I already have the game cover on the front of both the CE box and the game case.
However, with my friends bonus I got the CE for £33 which is a bargain so I have no right to complain.
Will post pictures in a moment.

Nobody was talking about 'huge' numbers and those 80k would certainly be enough to make for some more than adequate chart positions across Europe.Alextended said:

I will.
I'd like to complain that the CE box has those annoying clear stickers on that pull some of the colour off as they're removed.

This is one of the most beautiful RPGs I've ever played and the intro gets the blood going.
I wish this was on PS3 and 360 with even more enhanced graphics.
I guess dolphin will have to do.

I HAVE NO USE FOR SUCH FANCY CONTRAPTIONS.
But it was just a tiny bit of colour off the top of the box. This is just my OCD talking.
That'd be a dumb move. Everyone that will really want to play it in the US will already have a European copy and not only that they'll be pissed they had to import on top of that. There's virtually no chance for an NA release now. And even if they did release in the NA they just told their European BU to cannibalize the NA market for the game, sales will be weak and NoA will be like "See? We told you it was a bad idea!"truly101 said:
