I still remember operation rainfall, what times these were and were we are right now! I also hope Nintendo looks back at their other JRPG gems and brings them back like Pandora's Tower or The Last Story, these games absolutely need a remaster or remake.
I agree, 💯% please Player Essence, can you make a video about the other Operation Rainfall games and if enough people want them, Nintendo might remaster them. 👍
Operation rainfall was more on wishing Nintendo of America to release the 3 Wii jrpgs to north America. Because at the time, Nintendo of America were really hesitant on releasing jrpgs. Amazing how things have turned a decade later lol.
@@Mario123007 Yeah, I remember having these games before my American friends got hands on them I felt sad because these were so amazing. I was always the one on the internet who supported the movement even though I don't live in North America. I think is great that now more people can enjoy these games and without Operation Reinfall these games would have had a much smaller fan base. I think JRPG's now are also more popular in the west, so bringing back old Classics like Pandora's Tower or The Last Story would be a good move, I am sure they would sell better than they did during the Wii era.
Operation Rainfall was a crazy time. I never thought that Xenoblade would evolve into the great series that it is. The Last Story I absolutely love that game and would love to see it revived, remade and sequels made for it!
9:30 And for the offline marker to not constantly be there if we're not online. Whether we like playing alone, or the year is 2045 and Switch online is no longer a thing, or maybe we just don't have internet, that marker shouldn't haunt the whole game.
Xenoblade is such a great series. I would love for Nintendo to make sequels to X for the Switch successor! Speaking of Operation Rainfall……where is The Last Story at? I love that game, and would love to see it be revived, and remade for the Switch successor and sequels be made for that as well!
That movement didn't have any real effect, don't let people trick you into thinking that it did. We got lucky that nintendo of Europe did it without any pressure from us, because operation rainfall was aimed solely at nintendo of America
I happened to be one of the twelve people who bought a Wii U at launch and X was my first Xenoblade game. I know nostalgia plays a role here, but it's such a special game for me. I could not be more excited for the Definitive Edition. Would love to see the online and multiplayer features expanded and a decent amount of new story material, but even if the game is still mostly the same as the original, I'll be happy to have it on my Switch.
You could play XCX completely on the gamepad so it'll be simple to do on a single screen. Just swipe down on the gamepad to bring it to the single screen mode on the gamepad and swipe up to send it back to the Tv in Dusl screen mode. Sidenote: We REALLY need to get Earth Seeker ported as well. It was overlooked on the Wii and wouldve fit in great with the Rainfall Trio.
Unlike xcde, XCX was only released on the Wii U, so I think xcxde sales will easily eclipse the Wii U sales by a huge margin. 1.5 million is my safe bet lol.
I think its attacted alot of attention in recent years and most definitely recent weeks. The install base is a major factor but it appears like theres a hype train behind it this time.
So great to finally see Xenoblade Chronicles X being released on the Switch. Just wish Nintendo would hurry up with the announcements of Twilight Princess/Wind Waker remasters, Fire Emblem 4 remake and Kid Icarus Uprising remake/remaster.
The biggest gripe I have with Xenoblade X that needs undoing is the censorship which plagued the Western release of the game. It was inexcusable to censor it the first time, no excuse now. Remove the censorship and Monolith will get more fanfare.
Uhm… what are you a kid didler? The game was censored in the west because kiddie porn is illegal here and the character in question “Lin” is 12 years old. News flash.. definitive edition will be toned down in the Japanese version this time around too… because Japan finally joined the civilized world and made it illegal to f@(% kids. Sorry groomer
Great video! I love your enthusiasm for this series. Keep the videos coming for all things Xenoblade. One of my fave franchises and I can not wait to play this this game as I was always waiting for a switch release
Lol. Me personally, you're not an RPG or if you don't at least put 100 hours into a game. Heck, I wouldn't mind playing one as long as two to 300 hours to complete. And that would just be the main story, not counting side stories in quest, honestly, I love drawing out RPG's like that, because it's boring and sad when it ends. Then I'm like, what can I play that's similar to this to get that feeling back? So, yeah, I I'm on the side. The longer the game is, the better off I him. Give me a game. I can sync my teeth into for two or three months.
Still it can be played alone. Im so glad that you can understand enough, even if someone not played the other games. I like the style that we have games that stand for themselves (because of that, im also against connecting xenosaga). For new players it would be propably exhausting if they need to play 3 games with 50 hours to understand it so they dont even begin
As someone who only tried out Xenoblade 2 and 3 in the last few years(1 just did't grab me) and having only heard wispers about X, i'm really happy to check it out next year. I think they will give it the best graphical overhaul they can but considering how dated the Switch is much better then how they did 3 i would't expect. Honestly, what i would't give to play the entire franchise on PC couse the graphics and framerate would be out of this world!
You know. One thing I was bugged about in XBX was the censorship for the main character. 12 year old Lin is fine, some of those clothes were WAY too risque for her, but censoring the Create a character was weird. Either way I'm interested.
Im against all forms of censorship. Give them an inch they'll take it a mile. Also, don't forget the Japanese version was just fine with the outfit on lin. Only moral busy bodies wanted it censored. My stance is. Don't equip the item if you don't want to see it.
I mean. Yeah the series did experience growth on the switch. But two of those series had twice as many games on the switch. I think the WiiU and 3DS actually had more Metroid games funnily. Because you could buy the wii prime trilogy on the eshop. But the only new metroid game was federation force.
13:08 When it comes to word of mouth, which funnily with xc2 I still think that the "controversy" with the female blades, whether it's pyra and mythra, dahlia, or even pointing out how most Rare blades are females definitely garner people wanting to try out the game and see what's the deal. And many ending up liking the game lol.
The only reason I own a WiiU was this game. I bought the console with the game at release and that is the only game I got for the WiiU and I regret nothing this game is my favorite of the series. I can't wait to buy it and play it on Switch heck if they release a Switch 2 around the same time as X I might get one too lol.
I think they should remake their "nintendo select" games and add XC2 and 3 with their own DLCs included to push their sales if they want to get Xenoblade through 10M sales. As for if the game will push the franchise further, I dunno, XCX is very different from the other games.
I hope the entire house of the dead collection gets released on the switch with a dedicated light gun or atleast reissue the wii remotes and censor bars
No matter what the sales being shown off proves Nintendo is very happy with Xenoblade and we can expect to see more from it same for Metroid and Pikmin honestly. I also disagree that you need to play the other games to understand 2 or 3. 2's story is completely seperate from 1's until the very end and the end does a very good job showing you that Kalus is important to 2's world just as much as 1's. 3 features Melia and Nia but they have their own established roles in the story that IS important. A new player would still care about them because they've had this horrible tragedy thrust on them and replaced by false queens. Knowing their full context can certainly enhance moments like Nia surviving that arrow long time fans will understand how that happened but it's not an important detail a new player needs to be aware of, infact the mystery could entice them to know more about these type of events.
@@Seacle14 that's what happens when your teacher tells you to write a 500 word essay to a question that you can answer in 50. lol. and it's "off the cuff" btw.
@ Hey thanks for the correction. Non-native here who has only ever heard the expression, never read it. Definitely remember that feeling from school. Although I think he is just doing it because he is excited about the games and likes to ramble a little haha
OJ, I'm still going with 5+ million sales for XCX DE. We are not going to see the lower millions of sales from past XC games because this has online play, which the other games didn't. And Nin has been expanding their NSO network etc so its going to help out new gamers to pick the game up after they see main NSO advertisements of XCX DE along with the classic Nin games that have online play like Mario Kart & Splatoon to name a few.
That’s an ambitious guess! Especially for a 4th Xenoblade game release on the Switch. I’m personally expecting 1.5 million to 2 million. That said, if it gets graphical enhancements for the Switch 2 and is marketed early on, then I can see it easily becoming the best selling. Perhaps 3-4 million?
Regarding online gaming, as someone who refuses to pay for a PlayStation Plus subscription, I will not purchase a game only to pay additional fees for its online features. It's a significant deterrent for those who say, "I won't pay a subscription just to play with others." Overemphasis on this could be a mistake, as most people are unlikely to subscribe. Considering the high cost of games alone, the idea of paying extra for online capabilities for a game you've already purchased is unreasonable. It's simply a waste of money to invest, for example, $100 in an online service, use it once, and then abandon it. If they make it optional, such as not requiring a Nintendo online membership, then I'm supportive. However, if it's mandatory, it will likely fail, as many people will not accept that. While some may comply, the majority will not.
I don't think there's anything wrong with playing Xenoblade Chronicles 2 as an entry point. 2 isn't actually a sequel to 1, it's a parallel. That said, it definitely pays to familiarize yourself with the series before playing 3. It is still enjoyable on its own, but you will miss a lot that way.
Launch Xenoblabe Chronicles X on the Switch 2 and upgrade the game from there. End of the History. They want to make a port of the game for the Vanilla Switch? Cool i guess, but make the Switch 2 version better. that's it
Please! Please! Monolith! Don't let DEI ruin this game! I want this game to really do good in sales, DEI is a kiss of death to everything it touch and ruins creativity. This game suffered on the Wii U and went through a coma, now this game is showing signs of coming out of the coma, Don't replace the fan life support with a DEI one. Oh any improvements, I suggest a better font size readable ui and menus and monster locater. This game is having a second chance at life, don't let consultanting groups kill YOUR creativity Monolith Soft, consultant group killed Dragon Quest 3 remake and eiyuden chronicle, Don't let them kill this game. I don't want the good version of Xenoblade Chronicles X stuck on Wii U, please let Xenoblade Chronicles X be untainted on Switch. Me I'm ready for this huge meat and potatoes 300pls hour game, everyone this game is more gameplay than story, it's not like previous Xenoblade games, look up enel videos to know what I'm talking. This game is so.....ssssoooo good!!!
Not a fan of the anime art direction with X definitive edition. That art style is what turned me off to the other chronicles games and ultimately why I didn’t get more than a couple hours into the first one before deciding it wasn’t for me. X on the other hand for Wiiu was awesome. I played it all the way through, I probably put like 80 hours into that. I was chomping at the bit for a Switch port with better performance and gave up waiting for it. Then the trailer dropped and I saw those anime graphics… TRASH. If I’m gonna play it again I’ll just get my WiiU out of storage.
Xenoblade is my 2nd favorite franchise on Nintendo after Zelda. It doesn't have the name recognition as Zelda. X is my favorite Zenoblade game and I will be getting the remake on Switch. My honest opinion and I know Nintendo will not do it but I say port it over to PS5, Xbox and PC. However, keep the new games on Switch first. I feel Xenoblade won't get the love it should get like Ninteno's star franchises. Even Metroid another great series is lacking on Switch as well
Once again, if there is no boob slider in Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition, then we have no reason to play the DE... NEVER forget what they took from us...
Xenoblade X is not going to sell more than 2 million loooool/. Mna keep those expectation in check. Remeber how you said that TotK was going to outsell BotW ''EASILY''?
I just found a copy at gamestop for the WiiU and just started it. And now they actually announced this of course lol I might as well just wait for the switch version now. There's no point.
I put 1000 hours into the Wii U game, finished the game 99% of the way through. ( I have just 1thing left to 100% it) and I STILL want to keep playing the game ( it’s that good)
Hopefully they will let us at least change the music in New LA. Default 2 musics, day and night , are by far the worst in all xenoblade series and you hear them for hours. The rest of the soundtrack is epicly sublime instead.
I see it difficult too, but the Switch has almost 150million users, many of them are jrpg lovers as the console has tons of jrpgs and in addion, the console is in a "lack" of game releases time. So i see it possible to at least sell 2million and maybe increase the sales of the other XC titles. Sales data says XC franchise have sold 7.14million in total with all 3 games and 1 expansion. If you look at it like this, is like each title have sold an average of 1.8million units (probably about 2million or more each game and then expansion 1million or less). So it is at least possible that the franchise does reach 10million units before Switch completely dies... and remember, Switch 2 is retrocompatible, which maeans this games can keep selling another whole generation of consoles.
@@nyanmaruunlocked399 to be fair we had to beg Nintendo to give us Xenoblade chronicles for the Wii in the US and when it first came out it was 90 dollars exclusive to game stop. Not everyone is willing to spend 90 dollars on a game; not to mention that Xenoblade chronicles 2 and 3 had 30 dollar dlc so unless you're a big fan not everyone is willing to dish out the cash. I imagine Xenoblade chronicles X will only be 60 like Definitive Edition with bonus content included for free so it could sell better then the others not to mention it has online support it might bring in some new players who might be interested but wasn't sure about trying it out.
@@WhySoSeriousSenpai this is different from most games this is a master piece that fans are hoping gets a sequel so we'll be out in full force for this game. I know I've been setting money aside in preparation for this game
Can we stop lying about the quality of xenoblade 2, it's ridiculous that people are still lying about that Also I'm pretty sure that operation rainfall didn't have any effect on xenoblade chronicles coming to the west, that movement was aimed at nintendo of America and like you said nintendo of Europe localized it so yeah
What if our own earth (obviously going of random what ifs, not facts) got sucked through a black hole, reformed in a new universe (while the universe outside it at the "end of time" allowing all existences to exist and persist maybe surviving on the edge of that black hole, whatever species were alive then) but those within that reformed see a different existence entirely and experience time very differently than outside, we would see things much slower while everything outside is happening very quickly. So interdimensional beings would be possible by traveling through these spaces.) would it still be Earth? or a new planet entirely?
Nintendo has proven that having several cost-effective successful franchises is better than a single expensively massive franchise. That's not only how you sell consoles but avoid the risk of a huge flop bankrupting your company.
I bought the Wii U just for this game back in the day. Never regretted it.
Same.
The overclock mechanic was amazing - and that's before you get to mecha and transformers.
I'm hyped for this.
Same. This, Bayonetta 3 and Twilight Princess are the only WiiU game I ever played. Worth it :)
I still remember operation rainfall, what times these were and were we are right now! I also hope Nintendo looks back at their other JRPG gems and brings them back like Pandora's Tower or The Last Story, these games absolutely need a remaster or remake.

I really enjoyed The Last Story, one of the best Nintendo games ever made, it is better than most Fire emblem games, also TLS ended on a cliffhanger.
Now we just need Pandora's Tower and The Last Story remastered for Switch.
@@obikenkenobi30 and Earth Seeker. Overlooked but a great RPG also.
@@MarkLoweCEO Thank you for that suggestion.
@obikenkenobi30 you're welcome. Hopefully more people look into Earth Seeker as it now has a full English patch as well.
Probably not gonna happen nintendo didn't even publish them X seed did nintendo did us dirty the last year of the wii
9:30 And for the offline marker to not constantly be there if we're not online. Whether we like playing alone, or the year is 2045 and Switch online is no longer a thing, or maybe we just don't have internet, that marker shouldn't haunt the whole game.
I am so glad that this port is happening.
Xenoblade is such a great series. I would love for Nintendo to make sequels to X for the Switch successor! Speaking of Operation Rainfall……where is The Last Story at? I love that game, and would love to see it be revived, and remade for the Switch successor and sequels be made for that as well!
The Last Story, is a Hironobi sakaguchi, game, I just finished in 30 hours+, it is one of the best JRPGs ever made, underated gem, best Wii game too.
That movement didn't have any real effect, don't let people trick you into thinking that it did. We got lucky that nintendo of Europe did it without any pressure from us, because operation rainfall was aimed solely at nintendo of America

I hope they can sell 3 million. Maybe we can get Xenoblade x 2.
That would be cool.
Its not going to. This happens all the time people beg for a game to come to their console then they don’t buy it
You could play XCX completely on the gamepad so it'll be simple to do on a single screen. Just swipe down on the gamepad to bring it to the single screen mode on the gamepad and swipe up to send it back to the Tv in Dusl screen mode.
Sidenote: We REALLY need to get Earth Seeker ported as well. It was overlooked on the Wii and wouldve fit in great with the Rainfall Trio.
I still have the original special edition for X from the Wii U days, good times 😊
Unlike xcde, XCX was only released on the Wii U, so I think xcxde sales will easily eclipse the Wii U sales by a huge margin. 1.5 million is my safe bet lol.
I think its attacted alot of attention in recent years and most definitely recent weeks.
The install base is a major factor but it appears like theres a hype train behind it this time.

Demo, yes! 100% agree with that take. Or do like a three day trial of the game a couple weeks before release with saves carrying over
I have a good feeling XCX could be running on 4K 60FPS on Nintendo Switch 2. That instantly puts in the spotlight
Lol. Me personally, you're not an RPG or if you don't at least put 100 hours into a game. Heck, I wouldn't mind playing one as long as two to 300 hours to complete.

Good thing Pyra never gets cold.

Xenoblade 2 wasn't a purely word of mouth game. It was also promoted in the game that 90% of Switch users got at launch, Breath of The Wild.
Xenoblade is my 2nd favorite franchise on Nintendo after Zelda. It doesn't have the name recognition as Zelda. X is my favorite Zenoblade game and I will be getting the remake on Switch. My honest opinion and I know Nintendo will not do it but I say port it over to PS5, Xbox and PC. However, keep the new games on Switch first. I feel Xenoblade won't get the love it should get like Ninteno's star franchises. Even Metroid another great series is lacking on Switch as well
Once again, if there is no boob slider in Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition, then we have no reason to play the DE... NEVER forget what they took from us...
Xenoblade X is not going to sell more than 2 million loooool/. Mna keep those expectation in check. Remeber how you said that TotK was going to outsell BotW ''EASILY''?
I played 200 300 hours on Wii u. Is it worth going back
This is my favorite game of all time
All hail the mighty Nintendo Graph Chart!
Release it on next console in 4K.
I hope we can get the mech sooner.
Doubtful.
Just use that time to get super comfy with Overclock.
XENOBLADE HYPE WOAHHHH
XCX 1080p? I don't think so 😢 Not on Switch! On Switch 2 ok, is possible.
I just found a copy at gamestop for the WiiU and just started it. And now they actually announced this of course lol I might as well just wait for the switch version now. There's no point.
No no keep playing it
I put 1000 hours into the Wii U game, finished the game 99% of the way through. ( I have just 1thing left to 100% it) and I STILL want to keep playing the game ( it’s that good)
I’d make a new file in a heartbeat if I could lmao
Have they announced that they're going to fix the censorship issues?
The version every region is getting is the NoA version
@Implosion-Gaming yeah, and not only that, they went back and censored it even more than it was originally.
Issues?
Kiddie porn is illegal in Japan now too… sorry.
You’ll have to satisfy your weird kinks on the dark web.
hi OJ
Hopefully they will let us at least change the music in New LA. Default 2 musics, day and night , are by far the worst in all xenoblade series and you hear them for hours. The rest of the soundtrack is epicly sublime instead.
There is no timeline where XCXDE sells 3 million. We will be lucky to get just one sales update from Nintendo about the game.
Not so sure Xenoblade chronicles X sold more copies then Wii U units and it's been the most asked for game on the switch
@@therealwildace2025people ask for games all the tume just to not buy it in the end it happens all the time this game won’t sell well
I see it difficult too, but the Switch has almost 150million users, many of them are jrpg lovers as the console has tons of jrpgs and in addion, the console is in a "lack" of game releases time. So i see it possible to at least sell 2million and maybe increase the sales of the other XC titles.
Sales data says XC franchise have sold 7.14million in total with all 3 games and 1 expansion. If you look at it like this, is like each title have sold an average of 1.8million units (probably about 2million or more each game and then expansion 1million or less).
So it is at least possible that the franchise does reach 10million units before Switch completely dies... and remember, Switch 2 is retrocompatible, which maeans this games can keep selling another whole generation of consoles.
@@nyanmaruunlocked399 to be fair we had to beg Nintendo to give us Xenoblade chronicles for the Wii in the US and when it first came out it was 90 dollars exclusive to game stop.
Not everyone is willing to spend 90 dollars on a game; not to mention that Xenoblade chronicles 2 and 3 had 30 dollar dlc so unless you're a big fan not everyone is willing to dish out the cash. I imagine Xenoblade chronicles X will only be 60 like Definitive Edition with bonus content included for free so it could sell better then the others not to mention it has online support it might bring in some new players who might be interested but wasn't sure about trying it out.
@@WhySoSeriousSenpai this is different from most games this is a master piece that fans are hoping gets a sequel so we'll be out in full force for this game.
I know I've been setting money aside in preparation for this game
Oh xeno already broke bearers lol but let's go
Yelling at strangers on the street to buy this game
Can we stop lying about the quality of xenoblade 2, it's ridiculous that people are still lying about that
Also I'm pretty sure that operation rainfall didn't have any effect on xenoblade chronicles coming to the west, that movement was aimed at nintendo of America and like you said nintendo of Europe localized it so yeah
X is it's own stand alone story. You don't have to play 1, 2, and 3. Also Planet Mira is not Earth or Aionios, or the Mechonis/Bionis.
What if our own earth (obviously going of random what ifs, not facts) got sucked through a black hole, reformed in a new universe (while the universe outside it at the "end of time" allowing all existences to exist and persist maybe surviving on the edge of that black hole, whatever species were alive then) but those within that reformed see a different existence entirely and experience time very differently than outside, we would see things much slower while everything outside is happening very quickly. So interdimensional beings would be possible by traveling through these spaces.) would it still be Earth? or a new planet entirely?
Nintendo has proven that having several cost-effective successful franchises is better than a single expensively massive franchise.
That's not only how you sell consoles but avoid the risk of a huge flop bankrupting your company.
This game was not good. Its story is trash.
