Title: Monster Hunter 3G

Monster Hunter Tri is getting even more content than before, and it's gonna be on 3DS in an awesome bundle pack with the circle pad add-on and a custom 3DS this December (in Japan).

Anyone excited? About the 3DS or the game itself?

I've got no idea why Kotaku called it a "stupid-looking 3DS".

kotaku has been anti-3DS since the rumors first started up

I wouldn't worry about their opinion. They're just mad that every time they change their site layout their userbase shrinks.

They just like to be caustic and pissy sometimes.  Still go there, but more to find out what's happening then to agree with the constant editorializing.




Fuckin shop contest is rigged, though.

And once again, Capcom screws us over.

It's a port man. They'd actually have to work to get online going for it.

This is Capcom post-2003, I'm not surprised.

Fans are speculating one of Capcom's resolutions for this year is trolling everyone on the planet.

Probably.

Seth K. has hinted that there is going to be a pleasant surprise for Mega Man fans when people bugged the intercourse  out of him in New York this month but at this point I'm not getting my hopes up.

To add more insult to the injury, he already trolled everyone when he mentioned Rocket Raccoon and Frank West.

First of all, the original version already has online. The only work required would be to get it working with 3DS's revamped online system. Second, it's an enhanced port, so they're already adding stuff anyway. It's like a third version of a Pokemon game.

Yes, I know the original has online, but that has little relevance to what I said. They'd have to change the netcode, among other things, to get online going for it. This is work that Capcom obviously doesn't want to do or invest in.

We're on the same page, don't know why you're riding my ass on this.

I like how both of you are using essentially the same argument I used when discussing hypothetical Pokemon ports, yet I got stabbed in the ass when I said it.

I'm sorry that I came across that way. I didn't mean to.

My view is that Capcom either:

a.) is being lazy since the PSP games did insanely well without online, or
b.) feels that the subscription fee they had to charge in Japan for the Wii version is the reason sales fell short of expectations, so they're avoiding it this time.

It's probably both.

It's aight man.

Yeah I think you're right. Monster Hunter is going to sell like crack in japan with or without online. They're going to care more about Japan than the US.
