UPDATED! Xenoblade Chronicles Coming to North America as a GameStop Exclusive

After months of feverish refusal, it seems that Nintendo is finally bringing the critically acclaimed RPG Xenoblade Chronicles to North America.

GameStop’s computer now lists the game for an April 3rd, 2012 release, as a GameStop exclusive. Several GameStops have confirmed this, and later this morning Nintendo of America’s official Facebook page posted images of Xenoblade, practically confirming the release. Since the game is in GameStop’s system, you can now preorder the game as well.

While it’s all but confirmed, Nintendo has yet to make an official announcement, but all signs are pointing to this being legitimate.

UPDATE: And it’s been confirmed via a Nintendo press release!
