The big news today is the long-awaited confirmation ofXenoblade‘s release over here in the States. Seeing as I’ve already imported it, this doesn’t affect me too terribly much. However, it’s so nice to see Nintendo finally provide a new piece of software (that isn’tZelda)for their console.
There’s some speculation of the Wii U’s specs, we reviewInfinity Blade 2, Mojang’s Notch stepped down from his lead designer role forMinecraft,and more happened on 12/1/11. Oh yeah, andXenoblade Chronicleswas confirmed for the US!!!
