Xenoblade Chronicles coming to the U.S. - April 2012

[ChadFL]

Thanks in large part to a campaign by American gamers Xenoblade Chronicles is finally being localized for U.S. release. This game is widely viewed as the best RPG to come out on the Nintendo Wii, receiving great reviews in it's Japan and Euro releases. Target release date in the U.S. is April 2 2012, though apparently it'll only be sold at Gamestop and direct from Nintendo. I just pre-ordered today from Nintendo since I despise GameStop and won't buy from them.

Here's the pre-order page for Nintendo direct.

I'm as pumped for this release as any RPG in a long time. There's also a campaign to bring two other great RPG's called The Last Story and Pandora's Tower to the U.S. Not sure what the status on those is.
