  • Xenoblade announced for Wii

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

Nintendo just released their upcoming schedule. The big surprise can be seen on page 9 of the document in the upper right corner where they announce upcoming Wii titles for Japan.

As you may already know, Monolithsoft, Tetsuya Takahashi, and the Xenogears/Saga team were acquired by Nintendo a few years ago. They have been fairly quiet over the past five years. Now we know what they've been up to.

Oh, jesus christ. Really? Fuck.

Lemme guess... Xenoblade is this game where you're going to be swinging your Wiimote like a sword, right?

Yes, just like in other Wii RPGs such as Baroque or Crystal Bearers.....

Seriously, you didn't think that this was a DQ:Dragon Swords-type spin-off, did you?
