Is Xenoblade heading to Wii U? I personally wouldn’t bet on it. However, there are two retailers hinting at a Wii U version of Monolith Soft’s RPG.
Best Buy as well as Walmart list Xenoblade for Wii U. My guess would be that this is simply an error, as the listings were probably intended for “X” instead.
Although, given how difficult it is to find Xenoblade for Wii these days, re-releasing the game and in HD may not be such a bad idea…
