'''''Xenoblade Chronicles''''', known in Japan as | '''''Xenoblade Chronicles''''', known in Japan as ''Xenoblade (ゼノブレイド, Zenobureido)'', is a console role-playing game published by Nintendo and developed by Monolith Soft for the [[Wii]]. With the ''Xeno'' series traditionally being a PlayStation exclusive, Xenoblade is the first of the series to make it to a Nintendo console. Originally not intended to be released in North America, a massive fan movement called [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Rainfall Operation Rainfall] convinced Nintendo to publish it in more regions. | ||
The game follows a young man named Shulk, who wields the titular Xenoblade – an energy blade called the Monado – against the Mechon in order to ultimately save the world. The game world is designed to give the feeling of freedom and scope to the player; the environment is massive and most of it is available for exploration right from the start. Xenoblade uses a real time battle system, allowing the player to control his movement and attacks at will while party members attack automatically. | |||

There is a patch to make the PAL version run at 30 FPS rather than its default 25 FPS. This makes gameplay smoother and matches the original JAP version's 30 FPS. Download the patch [http://www.2shared.com/file/KPGFPick/60VPS_Patch_kAs1m_.html here] or [http://www.mediafire.com/?o69581y3p4gkk6j here]. You may wish to back up your original .iso game image before applying the patch. | There is a patch to make the PAL version run at 30 FPS rather than its default 25 FPS.

Xenoblade Chronicles is a very sound-intensive game, so the most common emulation problems relate to sound stutter, choppy voices during cutscenes, and random crackles and pops in the music and in menus. The sound issues occur for most whether using XAudio2 or DSound. Using the LLE sound plugin can help for some users. Others using HLE usually need to disable Audio Throttle. | Xenoblade Chronicles is a very sound-intensive game, so the most common emulation problems relate to sound stutter, choppy voices during cutscenes, and random crackles and pops in the music and in menus.
