Shion's been playing xenoblade for a while now on the Wii, and the little thing soldiers on just fine.

It is the most graphics heavy game I've seen on the Wii. The system never really wowed me for graphics, but this game does look really, really impressive. Maybe it is about to break the poor thing.

The game itself looks really solid, but none of the fights are easy. For example, I've noticed that three level 31 characters can quickly be crushed by one level 32 monster if you aren't careful.

The monster leveling seems pretty hard.
