Hmm better reviews than I thought. For whatever reason I detected a negative vibe from the game after the Japanese version came out.
I'm just not sure I have the time to enjoy the universe. I saw a video review where they claimed the game takes one or two hour play sessions into account, but I'm not so sure. Will ponder a purchase closer, since nothing else Wii U related is jumping out at me for Xmas.

That performance article out yet? I wanted to read it.
Probably editing now, since he was only just finishing up hours ago.
My roommate has a Wii U. I was thinking about getting the game and playing on his console.
Just looking for verification: if I were to play this, the disk is something I can carry to another wii u, but the save data is tied to his console unless I do a full transfer to another console, correct?

Unless the online elements locks the save files to the system, you should be able to save/back-up your file and transfer to another system. I know some games on the Wii wouldn't let you transfer save files if they had an online element (like The Last Story iirc). Dunno if same thing applies on the Wii U.
I didn't know this was a thing but I love it

Man, the UI for this game is a crime against humanity.

Probably the Amazon 15% off, that's the only one I'm aware of.
Happy with Best Buy's offer on this. GCU knocks it to $48 and it comes with $10 "epizza cash" which is just a prepaid Mastercard, so it's basically $38.
Don't think the Amazon deal works on this title. The preorder 15% has a limited selection.
Canada 30% off preorders most likely

Ask me about the GAF Notebook
My only worry is Japan/Import GAF seemed to encounter issues many hours in. I just hope all the reviews played enough hours to see it through to give a legit score.
At any rate I'm excited.
And since that's applied after whatever price drop the game has, it's a steal. Except for that shipping.

Oh, just saw that someone had it applied to their order and thought it was part of the deal.
Yea I tried it and it didn't work 😢

"Xenoblade Chronicles X puts players in a rich, vibrant world filled with a myriad of monsters, locations, and a deep story that tells the tale of civilization starting over, but bringing all these great things together in a cohesive way doesn’t go without fault."
I don't know if that's really the case. Maybe you'll be surprised. There's certainly a lot of different content in this game compared to the original.
Sorry, I walk a cold, lonely road. With randoms occasionally.

Looking forward to downloading this Thursday night......I trust Nintendo is doing the "midnight" ( it's always 10 pm for me) launch.

Sounds like you should play that game as it's so heralded but you don't need to play it to get into this one.
You should play the Wii game just because it's awesome, but it's not necessary. Might help you get acclimated though. X takes the original's gameplay systems and alters/adds a bunch of stuff on top,

Some of these playtime numbers the reviewers are throwing out there. This'll probably last me a lot longer than 80 hours lol.

Wait its a prepaid master? So you can use it on anything or is it strictly pizza?

You know, those are some damn good reviews. If we recognize that reviewing has gotten harsher for titles that could have easily gotten 90+ before, this is damn good.
Glad I bought it.
How often can we ride or transformer? Does it require specialized fuel?

It'll probably take me 300 hours to finish the game.

I think it does. I think it also automatically fills up when you aren't in it. You can probably equip certain parts to it to make it last longer? Dunno.

I just want to fly with my transformer into the forever.

Is it possible to level up all the things like Mechanical, Biological, etc things to max to open the "chests"? I think you can level up those when your Blade level increases. Wasn't sure if that was the only way to do so.
I don't know if there are parts that increase it but the survival guide video says how much fuel it has is determined by the type with I think the heavy ones carrying the most.
