Xenoblade Chronicles 3D just turned 10 years old!
On this day 20 years ago, the final episode of Xenosaga: The Animation aired in Japan!
I think we owe you an update
Welcome (back) to Mira, everyone
Screenshot of the Ramsus (part 1) wiki page's dialogue section. At the fight's end, Fei shouts "Bart!!", followed by a scene description where he "appears from out of nowhere and proceeds to punch Ramsus."
In the original reveal trailer for Xenoblade X (or "A brand new title developed by MONOLITH SOFTWARE INC."), the Millesaur enemies are called "Amphicoelias" (γ’γ³γγ£γ³γ¨γͺγ’γΉ), which implies that their design is based on that particular species. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amphicoelias
Xenosaga Furifuri Cast was a podcast featuring Ai Maeda and Mariko Suzuki (Shion's and KOS-MOS' voice actresses) released on the Japanese Xenosaga website before Episode III's launch back in 2006. It lasted 12 episodes. Fans could even submit messages on the website.
The Stone is a useless material in Xenoblade Chronicles that can be yoinked from a Berserk Ardun on the Bionis' Leg. It was likely never intended to be obtainable and only meant as a debug item, and yet it wasn't fixed in the Definitive Edition.

A Discord screenshot: "I'd like suggestions on what to call this ladder", followed by a screenshot of a ladder in Future Redeemed. "It's this one: 'Down from the southern tip of the border between The Ragmos Desolation and Yesterdale.' "
Reply to the previous Discord post: "steven"
Screenshot of the "Screenshots (FR)" wiki category. Three images are shown: "Ladder (Parvus Airspring).jpg", "Ladder (Ragrinar Passage).jpg", and "Ladder (steven).jpg".
well ok then
In Xenoblade 2, the "Kitchen" location in Indol (not the Gormott version) has its y coordinate positioned a bit too high. That means that in order to discover this location, you must stand on a table (or a sack of potatoes). Notice the location text on the upper right.
A few enemy and collectable spawnpoints in XC1 are placed wrong because a number is positive/negative but it should be the opposite. For example, there's a Cute Brog in Colony 9 just vibing out of bounds to the east. It should be with its fellows on the Cliff Lake shoreline.
So apparently Dr. Masuda (the scientist from the intro of Xenosaga I) has a first name that starts with "T". Where do we know this from? It seems like the only source if the North American TV commercial of all things. It's definitely an interesting ad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MjVzzX7_Pl8
Rooney Cavern's wiki page, highlighting its Wayne Rooney etymology.
Barbarich Desert's wiki page, highlighting its Ivica Barbaric etymology.
Stoyanov Trail's wiki page, highlighting its Ilian Stoyanov etymology.
Keegan Ridge's wiki page, highlighting its Kevin Keegan etymology.
Areas in Oblivia in Xenoblade Chronicles X are named after β of all things β IRL football (soccer) players.
Screenshot of Xeno Series Wiki's Username Policy page. A rule against usernames being "entirely incomprehensible" is shown, with highlighted text saying "Naming yourself after a Xenoblade Chronicles X music track is not an excuse."

The Japanese Xenoblade X Wii U bundle came with a map and artbook, similar to the North American and PAL collector's editions or European Wii U bundle. But unlike the west, you could only get them in this bundle, so if you wanted the map or artbook, you had to buy a new console.
The cutscene music in Xenosaga Episode II is sometimes quite different between the Japanese and the western versions of the game. How different? Well, very. Just listen. Thanks to @rtg142857 for discovering this! Cutscenes taken from Helsionium on Youtube.
When you look at our maps for Alcamoth collectables in Future Connected, it might look like we messed up rotating it, but we didn't. The devs did. They forgot to swap X- and Z-coordinates. This is the reason why collectables appear so rarely in Alcamoth. This was never patched.
Xeno Series Wiki has turned 5 years old today!
Monolith should make official YTPs again.
Screenshot of Xeno Series Wiki's "Assassination" page. The overview mentions that "Perceval has renounced killing, and in doing so has successfully assassinated the usefulness of this skill."
Meme image of Buzz excitedly showing something to a concerned Woody. Buzz is tagged with the Xeno Series Wiki logo on his chest, and he is pointing at "Data for 177 Treasure Troves and 844 enemy drops"; Woody is a "user who just wanted to know what 'Common Core Crystal' was in Spanish".
But hey, for the one guy who needed to know that the Urayan Bobbile Brog has 1.5x the chance to drop a Common Core Crystal compared to its Gormott brethren, we got you.
Do you guys less than 3 pizza? I certainly do.
The "In other languages" section of the Les Awfuls wiki page. Features a variety of corruptions of Les Miserables: "Amu Jou" in Japanese (from the original "A Mujou"), "Les Pitoyables" in French, "Les Insoportables" in Spanish, "Le reclute" in Italian, and "Prosthetic Joe's Les Miserables" in Chinese.
The previous image, but with the romanisations of CJK text highlighted.

Screenshots from (what appears to be) Xenosaga 2, labelled "Albedo celebrating getting a bonus." and "Sergius the shopkeeper doesn't feel like selling games to Jin."
Sakura's first appearance was not in Xenosaga Episode II, but instead in Xenosaga Freaks, which released two months earlier. Even though her house is seen in both games only very briefly, they made sure the Freaks version resembled the Episode II version as much as possible (minus the Bunnie plush).
We've just crossed the 30,000 article barrier.
(and yes, we "just" crossed it thanks to automated mass article creation)
Thumbnail of the music duo ACE's promotional image, embedded in their XSW page. The caption reads "ACE in their natural habitat, wearing appropriate attire."
Detail of said promotional image; the background is an obviously-photoshopped jungle with an assortment of various animals. The two composers are wearing silly clothing.
Starting off this account with some highlights from the Xitter account.
Screenshot of the Miiverse wiki page, featuring a post from Masahiro Sakurai in which he used the sm4sh trophies to pose for an image. Reyn is scrapping with Metal Face, and Melia is confusingly looking in the opposite direction, which Sakurai states without explanation.
Any OGs remember "Here's Melia looking the other way"?
