Want to know how much space Xenoblade Chronicles X and Xenoblade Chronicles 3D will take up on your Wii U and New Nintendo 3DS? Well read on. Amazon Japan states that Xenoblade Chronicles X will take up more than 22.7GB and Xenoblade Chronicles 3D will be up to 3.6GB. You’ll certainly need an external hard drive if you’re thinking of purchasing Xenoblade Chronicles X digitally on your Wii U, that’s for sure.
Proof of how many times bigger X will be to the original
Is not the Wii version of Xenoblade LIKE 14 GB?
Wii game was around 6
A wii game can only take 4.7gb at maximum if im correct (i download lots of wii games before :)
The maximum is closer to 8.5GB, as the Wii can make use of dual-layer discs.
Oh, you did…?
And still seems proud of your achievement.
Good, keep it up.
Lool, you crack me up.
Don’t forget that it can do dual discs which doubles the capacity.
The Wii version was between 5 and 6 GB
Glad to know, thanks to all.
Uhhh don’t forget this is also in HD.
I may actually buy the disc for this game…I kinda feel like if you own the disc, you should be able to download it, but IDK. That’s a lot of space. (which is good!)
I am glad they kept it to one disk.
I’m still waiting for the ability to download games off of discs into a console. Sure you could still sell the disc and technically have copied the game, but still, it would be awesome xD
LOL
That would make selling more than one disc ever pointless, and kill digital.
I know that, but still, it would be awesome. (It wouldn’t necessarily kill digital, just make it optional to download it off the disc; it would more likely kill physical than digital.)
Have fun fitting 22 GB in your Wii U. I know you can connect your External Hard Drive, but 22 GB big! It is almost a Wii U disk.
You do realize a 32GB USB drive can cost about $12-15 minimum which is more than enough for it.
according to nintendo usb drive would not work as a storage
Funny, because I have one and it does work as the system detected it and games/data is readable. Try again.
Dude us a hard drive not a flash drive. A flash drive has a limited amount of read/write data so when you hit that limit say goodbye to using your flash drive. If you use it for games it will die in a good bit of time. If you use it for backups you have no reason to worry. Just don’t have it plugged in and download games or your save data on it.
Don’t buy games that are heavy in size. There’s always a physical media.
hi there i dont care anything but read write speeds hey you want fast hard drives lets put multi voloci-raptors or chetas hard drives spinng at 10,000 rpm or 15,000 rpm hard drives in our console i want quad 22,500 rpm hard drives in my future consoles
I have downloaded smash,splinter cell,zombie u,mh3u and many indies and still my harddrive is on 10% filled and i bought it used for 20 euros and works fine.Its not that hard to get one.
Yeah I hate to fucking say it, but looks like I’ll have to get a damn physical copy.
Newbies… You are the disgrace of gaming.
Um shut the fuck up OK
You can’t even start a discussion, kid.
Grow up and be a man.
He doesn’t start discussions with a nobody that belongs to the cattle masses of nobodies…
I feel sorry for the person who decides to buy this game digitally. Imagine waiting for the game to download for hours, and when others are already playing it.
Nintendo has started this thing since Smash Bros. If you bought the game digitally before it’s released, you can download the game early too, albeit locked. Then when it’s released, all you’ll need is to update the game to unlock it to play. Unlocking it is very quick.
Funny thing is, a Wii U disc harbors up to 25 Gb of data per layer.
Why did Mr. Kawabata make such a fuss saying “oh, my, we are geniuses, we were able to store all XCX data in just one disc!” as they could have gone for a double layer format?
Unless the Wii U cannot read double layer discs, which I don’t believe it is the case.
Making it dual layer affects the read speeds. They were going for the seamlessness thing in this game and didn’t want extra loading and whatnot.
Thanks! Makes total sense. No one wants DKCTF loading times ever again.
i’ll be pre-loading it as soon as they put it on the eShop so i can play it at midnight on release and not have to wait until the the stores open.
As always, buying digital. Have a nice terabyte external hard drive for the WiiU and a 64gb micro sd in my New 3DS.
hi there you can buy a 1 terabyte external solid state flash drive over 1 gb/s read write speed
The great thing, is that these games will work perfectly at launch. Unlike Ubisoft Assassins creed unity, Halo master thief collection etc. Let me not even mention bathesda lol.
F=ma.
Fanboyism detected.
But I have to agree with you on this.
What did Bethesda do?
They hate our empire?…
Period…
They don’t invest enough time or money into the debug product. Which wouldn’t be so bad if their programming didn’t look like spaghetti.
The game didnt even come out yet so you cant even say that…
Wow this proves Witcher 3 on PS4 is bigger than Xenoblade Chronicles X. The Witcher 3 on PS4 is confirmed to be 50 GB
What does this mean so far…?
This means that you’re comparing oranges to tomatoes.
He’s comparing the world size? Since, y’know, they’re both RPG’s?
How can I predict the world size of them based only on their gigabytes?
Data is not used only for that. We also have game mechanics, sounds/music, textures, cutscenes, etc, etc, etc.
He is comparing bananas to apples, fact.
I’m pretty sure Witcher 3 on PC and Xbox One will be around 50GB, too. Depending on the degree of parity, they’re the same as Witcher 3 on PS4.
How many of those GBs are for the hardcore audiovisuals and cutscenes? And x86 is inefficient, so the code requires more to compensate compared to PowerPC. Trim the fat and what’s left?
Da fuck man? speak english
So true bro
download size proves nothing about the size of a game n00bs. lol, seriously?
Goodness good gracious! Buying it because I love hard copies. Hugs.
Holy shit both games are heavy. @_@
Will be playing Witcher 3,instead of This Power Rangers turned Jrpg game.
Witcher 3 has better graphics,better character models, better environments and gameplay plus its 720p 30fps it’s beyond that
Sure. You’ve tried both games to death already in your own TV room, and have complete, perfect idea of how they are going to be.
Thanks for your heads up, Mr. Came From The Future.
You’re a disgrace to CD PROJEKT. You do know they own GoG right? Just because their Witcher games look amazing, shit talking games because of graphics is against the love of gaming.
You do realize Xenoblade has been confirmed to be 1080p and 60FPS right? Plus, we haven’t received enough info about both games so unless you have exclusive access, don’t make false conclusions. And you mentioned graphics twice. When you grow a couple brain cells, then consult me.
Xenoblade X is 720p
i thought this game needs two disc because its too big no?
Nope. Just one. I’d hate having to switch disks
i wish i had a wii u so i could get digital because i like digital
