Can the Game "X" of Monolith Soft...

Can this game change what you think about the Wii U (Graphics , Nintendo approach, go and buy a Wii U)?.

Although it looks EPIC one game just doesn't justify the purchasse of a new console !

I'd say it's the first game on Wii U to really look "next-gen," it looks incredible.

today is the first day that I've considered getting a Wii U, and that game has a lot to do with it.

My Wii U purchace was justified when Pikmin 3 was confirmed for it. Therefore, it was justified before I bought it. All the amazing looking games that Nintendo just announced in adition to the amazing games they already announced is just plain overkill.

Nah, I wasn't shallow enough to dismiss the Wii U for those reasons.

With that said this game doesn't make me want a Wii U. I'm getting a 3DS first, and if for some reason I'm not completely satisfied with gaming between my PC and 3DS then the Wii U is my next purchase.

It doesn't look beyond PS3 or 360. It does however look so awesome

It could definitely get the Wii U some serious attention for once, but it's just one game, after it people will go back to how they acted before :P

HOWEVER, that Nintendo is bringing this up front and center bodes very well for future content on the console. Xenoblade almost never made it over, and now the sequel looks to be a big title to them. Xenoblade was an amazing game, if Nintendo keeps channeling resources to them and helping them expand, Monolith Soft could definitely become one of Nintendo's key developers.

Looks great for an open world game, so yes it has changed my expectations for Wii U graphics though I still don't expect a huge leap. [QUOTE="ActicEdge"]

Monolith Soft are tech gods. They made Xenoblade on Wii, and while the character models were poor, the scale, framerate, and almost zero load times at all are technically dumbfounding for the hardware.

I can sort've see the Bethesda influence. They said they wanted to make a huge world in a JRPG like Bethesda did in a WRPG.

They said they wanted to surpass them in scope.

The video made me sad for what Xenoblade could have looked like if Nintendo gave the Wii a bit more oomph when designing it :(

That looks so good that makes me believe that's not a WiiU game.... I mean, if that was the in-game footage, surely that would be amazing, but judging for WiiU specs I still think that the actual game won't look as good as the trailer

I remember playing Xenoblade, the game was so good but I couldn't finished it because the graphic is really bad, I played Xenoblade right after I played Uncharted and RDR, and that makes me can not continue Xenoblade

And also, as good as WiiU graphic it makes me think if WiiU with crappy specs can delivered awesome graphic than how about PS4?

One thing I hate about Nintendo this-gen and last-gen is they can not compete in graphics, that's just too lazy Nintendo....so why should I support lazy publisher?

It is for me. The first one surpassed my expectations.

I'm buying a Wii U just for this game.

It says something when Xenoblade, already one of the greatest games ever created, was made as a tech demo for this. I cried tears of joy when I saw the trailer. My d*** was hard as a rock. My body is not ready for this.

Well, Killzone 2 trailer taught me not to judge graphic of a game too early

Although I think when X came out other game likes Crysis 3 or The Last of Us will make us feel X's graphic is nothing special

Killzone 2 had no gameplay at all when first revealed in that E3 trailer.

Also considering how bad Xenoblade looked on the Wii compared to other first party games because of its scale, whatever Retro and EAD show will finally put an end to this whole WiiU = PS360 sentiment if this hasn't already.

this is the first time I can genuinely say that Nintendo has impressed me with something in the last 10 or so years.

It can't change nuthin for me since I have a Wii U... Damn, glad I have a Wii U now lol.

rectangular shoreline, that's how you know it's a japanese game.

LOL, hell no!

[spoiler] I already have a WII U [/spoiler]

If its Xenoblade 2 I will immediately go out and buy a Wii U

It looks pretty good, but I think the thing that amazed me the most was the battling of the giant monsters (did remind me of Monster Hunter at one point but still is different) and the sheer scale of the game. Oh yeah... giant mechs or gears too.

I'm not sure how much of this scale will be defined but I'm guessing it will still be fairly meaty without just downtime to go to places.

Xenoblade was easily the best JRPG last gen and the best Wii game and this new game looks stunning just stunning. I'm so pumped for this game now.

It again doesn't look outta the Ps3 and 360s realm but Xenoblade really isn't empty, its open world and that's how open world games look . . .opne :?

Don't waste your time, he just argues for the sake of arguing.

Anyways, I'm surprised by this game. I thought it would take a couple of years for WiiU games to look this good and I never thought they'd have these visuals with this sense of scale. Its impressive.

It is a cut above PS3 and 360.. just look at the draw distance, the textures (especially ground), general level of detail and the stable framerate.

You think so? I don't really see it, it looks like a high end PS3/360 title but I don't look at it and go "impossible on other systems" or anything.
