Life size nopon plushes when?

We aren't getting Nopon plushies. The series can't even get its own line of amiibo. It's SHIT.

I was hoping for a Rex&Pyra amiibo reveal during the first Treehouse presentation. Never came. Sucks.

Those are pretty close to life size.

So the new PGW footage was still Uraya but there was some interesting stuff

They confirmed the demo has increased HP so they could show off the combat system without the enemies dying too fast

About dual audio they had this to say:

Journalist#1: "And now, the usual: Japanese voices? Yes? No? What's happening about it?" Nintendo Guy: "For the japanese voices, sadly, I can't comment on them right now keep following us because we'll do an announcement about it in the upcoming weeks." Journalist#2: "So it means yes, I'm translating it to you, I don't work for Nintendo so I can say it." Journalist#1: "If it ends up being no this will be a scandal."laughs Journalist#2: "What I mean is that it was the case for the first one." (Thank you Sup Forums guy who translates stuff!)

Theyshowed the camera controls -They also showed a skill being used, I don't really know what it did but it was when they activated a Collection Point (I think it increased the loot, but I'm not sure) -they also confirmed what canceling is:"you can cancel your auto-attack by using an art and make your special art charge faster"

How do I get a job at Monolith soft?

>mfw no female Nopon party member to play as who is as cool as Monopon

Why even live bros

Obviously tonight is gonna be another Blade, but what kind?

>page 9
WE CUN DO BETTAH THAN THES

Why do people say every new character in this game is a waifu? The split is quite even, 6 new females and 5 new males.

Because for normalfags female character thats not a complete uggo=waifu

>Only have a month left to play Xenoblade Chronicles.
I don't know whether to continue on playing on the Wii U (I only just got to the Bionis Knee) or start again on my new PC so I can play it at a non-shit resolution.

>those numbers

I'm surprised this game got it's own special pro controller before a series like Zelda or Mario did.

People pls.

I have a Xenoblade X question.
Electric Surge's description says it deals more damage the less HP the user has, yet it seems to work literally backward. If I use it at full HP it does about 1k damage per hit, if I use it after a Blood Sacrifice it goes down to 500 per hit.

Is the art broken?

WHERE ARE MY FIGURES OR FLUFFY PLUSHIES?!

Thoughts on this? I liked it.

Question

Where do you get the special edition?

I can't find it anywhere

whoever runs the merchandising branch must have lobbied pretty hard for a pro controller modeled after Pyra's tits

if it's not up at Gamestop then you missed your chance

This but unironically. Would they hire a gaijin?

I'm not from the states ("third world")

I guess I will have to get it at my local version of Gamestop

Start again

Do you know Japanese? Do you have experience coding/designing action RPGs? They're hiring right now. Send in a resume and see what happens

Sawano being sawano. But it works well for XBX

it's one of my favorite soundtracks in video games
>BLADE home

Really smart move on Nintendo. If they made a Mario one then people would be less likely to buy Red Joy-cons if they didn't get a bundle.

Also their saving the Zelda controller for the "skyward sword" forcing people to buy the Xenoblade controller or whatever other franchise gets it first.

I legit loved most of it, but while the highs are very high, the lows are low
A few pieces showed that the fucker actually has range, so I'm glad

Actually pretty phenomenal. I still listen to it on my daily walks.

Best track coming through youtube.com/watch?v=EmUeqMnWmDY

Leaf here, got it at EB Games when I picked up Samus Returns

>They confirmed the demo has increased HP so they could show off the combat system without the enemies dying too fast
I still don't understand how people doubted this when it was obvious how at their E3 showing they killed most stuff way too fast

>They also showed a skill being used, I don't really know what it did but it was when they activated a Collection Point (I think it increased the loot, but I'm not sure)
What time

Because every piece of footage since then has had enemies with bloated HPs, so its not a huge leap in logic to imagine that people would assume the worst

What if it's not bloated HP and simply the fact that none of the demo character ever upgraded their gear nor leveled an art?

user, the rep literally confirmed that the enemies had increased HP

Well we do know for a fact that it is bloated HP, and the art in the footage is probably leveled given Anchor Shot already starts ready to use

Don't I have to live in Japan first? I'll definitely work on coding, and learning Japanese goes without saying.
Some gaijin worked on Breath of the Wild translatorscafe.com/cafe/MegaBBS/forumthread10183.htm
He asked for advice here 10 years ago

Holy shit, fucking congrats to the dude

So essentially there will be dual audio but they're keeping quiet about it to minimize reverse importation.

>The split is quite even, 6 new females and 5 new males.
>when there are 3 males and 8 females in that pic

>implying Hotaru and Finch are female

Pretty good Theme x and the way are one of my favorite too.

>being a trapfag

subs when

Most likely will get Jap voices DLC

Fair warning. It's just 50 minutes of HONHONHONing over barely audible Uraya footage.

Will probably be announced in a direct if there is one.

I wish nintendo would show off a bit more story stuff, even if it is just vague, out of context dialogue.

Shame you can't design your own protagonist for this one. The charagen in the last game looked really good, removal of bust slider aside.

Any word on a Switch port of XCX by the way? I preordered 2's special edition but having not played the prequel I'll probably feel left-out.

I've been wanting to hear everyone speaking in a casual, non-combat situation for the longest. I feel like we still barely have any real grasp on their personalities.

They should definitely spare to spoil at least one singular heart-to-heart or other non-plot heavy party bant

I understand wanting to keep things a surprise, but keeping secrets like this isn't good advertising and the game is so massive that letting a couple of tidbits slip shouldn't really be an issue.

Takahashi likes the idea, but there are no current plans for it.

I've been wanting to hear Nia speak without any distractions

Hello?

Is this thing on?

Lucky for you, none of the Xenoblade games are directly related to one another except by name, some fantasy species and a general gameplay feel. Think of it as Nintendo's answer to Final Fantasy, so you won't really be out of the loop by starting with 2.

Not that you shouldn't get around to playing both 1 and X if the opportunity arises, both are fantastic games.

Am I all alone?

Xenoblade is the Persona of SMT, I wish Tetsuya could do his games the old way again

What did he mean by this?

He (me) meant this.

It's not Nintendo that's stopping him, that's for sure. They seem to give him all the freedom in the world. He probably just doesn't want those games of old anymore.

I am sorry, but it is so obvious Nintendo is the reason, it makes me question your deduction skills.

Oh, you're just a shitposter. Carry on, sorry for replying.

You are funny, I gotta admit.

Still amazed how good the in-game models look.

"Xenoblade is to Xenosaga what Persona is to SMT." Not hard, is it?

Since Rare Blade Friday is coming up, how bout we talk about some artists we want to see join in on the fun?

>brainlet version
You're right, it is much easier for you that way

Friendly reminder to report and ignore.

Still waiting. Considering how the other rare blades look in-game, the style wouldn't even clash that hard.

...

Takashi Okazaki

Too bad the Dark element gun spot is taken.

I want a handful of Blades to be designed by Western artists with really clashing styles. Something that'd really take me by surprise. Like a Joan Sfarr Blade.

>Gaijin
Don't get your hopes up.

Keep [spiler]sexy[/spoiler].

>tfw cant into artists
I guess i dont want to see anything related to Yasuda

They have gaijins designing Pokémon, so why not?

>Guest design by Kaneko
Please, Monolith. I'd even be happy if it was just Doi instead

Isn't James the only one?

It's up

...

Wow, she looks terrible!

Video's up now, she... actually looks a lot better in 3d.
>Zakuro/Pomegranate
Funny how the 3d in this game makes the 2d designs look good instead of the other way around.

Not him, but I think 3d makes her worse for her very pinkish skin. The pose does look better in 3d

ya I've been saying this for a while now, it's a reverse-tanaka

Pyra's thighs.

Looks like Fiora.

Phosphora?

yawn

So when Takahashi asked these artists to design characters for his game did he say, "I want you to make the most ridiculous looking waifu bait you possibly can"

Yes.

I wonder why only that one blade has the jelly physics applied.

she looks better on the promo animated tho

More like"I want you to make whatever the hell you damn well feel like" and he just so happened to get a bunch of cute girls.

>only that
all blades have em if you look closely, she likely has it over exaggerated by mistake

I want to eat that Tatsu.
