US consumers were able to purchase Xenoblade for several months last year before it finally sold out once again. But what about Canada?
As it turns out, Video Games Plus just made an exclusive special purchase rebuild of Xenoblade Chronicles from Nintendo of Canada. Each copy is new and factory sealed.
Video Games Plus has Xenoblade available for purchase here. The price is a bit hefty coming in at $69.99 CAD, though the game has been a bit tougher to find as of late. Video Games Plus ships worldwide, but also ships all US parcels out of Niagara Falls in New York.
