A new update was published on the official Japanese website for Xenoblade Chronicles X, which details some of the game’s downloadable content and online features.

The main draw of the DLC are the new characters – “HB”, “Boze”, “Ierv” and “Aksena”. They each come with their own DLC pack priced at 500 yen, containing the character and three missions. Finishing those missions allows you to add that character, who comes with two unique Artes, to your party. Three of those DLC packs award you with a blueprint for a new Skell, while the other one gives you a blueprint for a new type of weapon.

In addition, there are three more DLC packs containing missions that make it easier to level your characters, earn money and improve their relationships. These are priced at 300 yen each.

Finally, you can buy all of those DLC packs together for 2,000 yen instead of buying them all individually for 2,900 yen.

Xenoblade Chronicles X will finally be released in Japan later today. Ahead of its release, Nintendo released another official video which shows some of the game’s online features, such as Squad Quests and online co-op play.

The folks over at Unseen64 once again did what they do best and unearthed footage and information from the video game history books. This time, they’ve covered NesGlider, a game that would eventually end up being the SNES classic Star Fox.

NesGlider was developed by Argonaut Games for the NES (and eventually the SNES) in order to show Nintendo what 3D games would look like on their hardware. While the game looked impressive for its time, it suffered from being a bit slow and clunky despite pushing the SNES to its limits. Check out some footage from the game below:

Nonetheless, Nintendo was impressed and decided to invest into a hardware upgrade that would allow the SNES to seamlessly handle 3D graphics. Working together with Argonaut, they developed the Super FX chip, which finally made 3D games possible on the Super Nintendo. Argonaut and Nintendo then worked together on the NesGlider prototype, and in a collaborative effort, the game evolved into what we know as Star Fox.
