They can't sell something if they don't exist.

I don't understand why the game doesn't look that good.
Xenoblade on the Wii was GORGEOUS but this doesn't look like the HD sequel I was expecting. I was expecting a game as beautiful as Zelda Wii U

Dude, the scale.

Plus we're just basing this off videos. I think it'll look great. Art direction > hardware limitations.

Xenoblade's character models weren't very impressive compared to other Wii games. It was beautiful in scale. The vast fields and backdrops are what everyone talks about. You'll still get that in Xenoblade Chronicles X. Just check out the demonstration they had earlier. Also bear in mind that the game isn't even out yet either.

Can we talk about Devil's Third for a second? The game looks really, really rough and needs plenty of work done to it. Hopefully Itagaki and his team can get it polished up as time goes on because some of the concepts certainly have potential. The trailer makes the game look somewhat decent, so we'll see. The more action games the better.

I have faith in Itagaki and Nintendo seems invested invested in this as well. I'm cautiously optimistic.

I just saw the stage demo for Devil's Third, they showed off a different stage and it looks MUCH better.

Though the fidelity is still around Ninja Gaiden 2. It really feels like this was started on 360 and they're using old assets to get the game done. It kind of sounds like the rug got pulled out from under them when THQ crashed and the only company to pick up the game was Nintendo.
