Gaming Xenoblade Chronicles 3DS is annoying me
Christ man, the original game was like this. Why would they entirely remake it?
Giving up on the game for the [superior] english is really petty.

Actually, didn't they pretty much re-build the game from the ground up for the N3DS?
That's what they say about all of their re-releases and yet they look and play 99% like the original. I haven't seen a good remake by Nintendo for ages now.
I would say it's a good remake when it looks and feels like the original. Example for a bad remake: THPS on the PS3.
Complaining about no Graphic makeovers is a bit of a first world problem, isn't it?
Feels like the original? Yes. Looks and plays exactly like the original? No. The whole point of a "remake" is to "remake" something using more recent technologies and implement contemporary improvements to the same overall story. If you're remaking something only to swap a few textures and models, stop wasting your time. That's a remastered version, not a remake. MGS: Twin Snakes is a remake? Yes. Resident Evil: Remake is a remake? Yes. Starfox 64 3D? That's not a remake, that's a remastered game.
Canadian English? There is no such thing. There is NA English and UK English. Canadians spell everything nearly the same. They basically pronounce things differently. My source?, Stargate Atlantis 
I take it that you give up then. I'm sorry, there's a big difference between a good remake and a bad remake. If your "brand new" game feels like it's a decade old, it's a shitty game and you should feel bad. In case of Xenoblade Yawnicles all that was changed was a slight downgrade in graphics, so it's not a remake, it's a re-release at best, watered down port at worst. Remastered versions of games are not worth full retail price because it's the exact same games as before, just on a different platform. Remakes on the other handare brand new and only share the general story, so they're worth the investment in my book, especially if you missed out on the original or if you wish to revisit it. It's the same narrative, but an improved experience, which makes it both familiar and exciting at the same time. There's nothing exciting about an old, greasy burger repackaged in a new, shiny box - it's still an old and smelly burger.
Just gonna leave that here: it's a port, not a remake.

Xenoblade isn't a bad game, it's just not a gem everyone makes it out to be. It's an average and predictible JRPG with little going for it. The battle system is innovative, I suppose, but the reasons why this game is so popular are obvious to me, namely the fact that it was released in a limited run, it went through trials and tribulations before getting to the US and it was the dying gasp of the Wii that had suffered a draught of this kind of games and at that point any scrap was good. It's a 6 or 7, not a 10 and that's just a fact. It's not a trend setter, it's not anything groundbreaking, it's a niche title that people built a cult classic mythos around for no reason.
Well, you don't like the game (definitively) so you are somewhat biased to give it a 6-7. As for me, that really enjoyed the game, I would put it more like in the 8-9 range, but that is a matter of opinions.
Regarding the game, it is overhyped, it is a great game IMHO but not a flawless one. I think people realize that already, and anyway it should be a great RPG to play even to day.
Hell, I still play it frequently on Wii. At least I enjoy it like a very good (not masterpiece) game.
Anyway, what I am trying to say is that your personal crusade against the game is getting kind of old already.

It's all about nintendo's stupidity here.
Nintendo ds wasn't region locked and everyone were happy.
Now it causes mass frustration.
They come pretty close to be honest, but I haven't played them much so I have no opinion.
