Is this an actual new game? Or just yet another expansion release of a previous title?

Hoping for a western release confirmed on E3.

Also, called it. I knew they would put Monster Hunter on Switch. Just wasn't sure if it'd be an enhanced port or a new game.

The Switch has this, Dragon Quest, and Splatoon. Once it gets a mainline Pokemon (and you know it will), then Nintendo will basically rule Japan.

Par for the course for any new console really. It's hard to let go of large install bases especially for third parties.

It makes Dark Souls look like a bitch game. It fucking makes you grow some man hair and makes your balls drop all the way to China.

Nah, I mean it's just like a really good difficulty. It really tests the player to the maximum degree, but also in a very fun way

It's Monster Hunters "hard" mode. But it is always a LOT of content. All of the best gear in the game (and there is a ton) will be available in g-rank, along with the hardest monsters, probably some exclusive to g rank. It is worth the price of a full game for this on glorious, big-screen HD.

I bet that it's going to be locked to 30 FPS and not fix the fucking rapid bow bug.

And yes it's kind of a big deal when a bug that we've known about since 2 weeks after release has yet to be fixed, especially when they fixed the Lao weapon cost bug. MHXX sold like shit in Japan (But that's because X is just flat out a lazy, rushed game, and while MHXX fixes this to an extent there's still quite the amount of issues with the game.) and they can't afford to be lazy if they want to see MH succeed.

Don't get me wrong, I want to see this game succeed, because I'd like more MH titles in the future. But just going off what we know about MH3U on Wii U, their history with porting games to consoles from handheld isn't stellar. Can't comment on MHP3HD, I only played PSP MHP3.

I mean... the 3DS ones are 60 FPS, and those maps are designed to accommodate a handheld. There aren't like long, big water sections like in MH3U either. In any case, they're porting an easier game to port on a stronger device. I'm pretty sure it's not really gonna be THAT bad

Sorry, what? No they aren't.

3U is capped at 30, X/XX are also capped at 30, 4U can get 60 in some areas but only on N3DS. Vanilla 4 I'm pretty sure was also capped at 30, N3DS wasn't out yet but that game is irrelevant so it doesn't matter and it's been years since I played it.

No. But they have a price range in Japan
As relayed by industry analyst Serkan Toto on Twitter, Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima has indicated to Japanese publication Nikkei that the online service will cost 2,000 - 3,000 yen annually. That translates to $17.62-$26.44 (16.39-24.58 EUR / 13.94-20.91 GBP).

25 dollars a year for online service isn't unreasonable.

MMO's are $15/mo, $25/year is extremely reasonable IMO, i can't see anyone whining about this, as long as the service quality is proportional to the value, because as it stands, nintendo's online might've been free until this point but god damn it was terrible...

First Monhun bias aside, one thing I like about 3U is that the roster wasn't packed with every monster possible in the series. There are too many monsters cluttering 4U's and Gen's roster that should be left behind. No one likes hunting Gravios or Basarios, no one likes hearing Khezu scream 3-5 times in a row. The dromes are in every way inferior to the 'aggies (though I hear Great Jaggi will never return due to copyright issues regarding the Jurassic World IP) And who likes dealing with the Kut-Ku's instant charge? We already get enough of that from the Raths.

I consider myself as vet as they come, personally. Started off on the first game, and played most of the others that came out. Including the G rank versions of games.

The G rank games are the same games, with another tier of quests. They add in a few extra assets. But it's the same game. Same villages, same characters, same stories. It's like the original game with a bunch of added DLC onto it or something.

It's amazing how Switch still hasn't gotten a big original game. All the interesting games can be played somewhere else.
