Monster Hunter 3G (3DS) /Monster Hunter 4 (3DS)


Your eyes do not deceive you. New titles in the Monster Hunter franchise have been announced, but eager PSP/Vita owners will have to wait; as these games are EXCLUSIVE to the 3DS.

This is great news, but quite a few people have been asking some questions.

1) How long of a time frame will Vita owners have to wait before this is released on their platform?

A: Currently, no party is aware of a prospective Monster Hunter release on the Vita; much less the original psp itself. It was a great move by Nintendo, and it if they manage to keep it as an exclusive; it will undoubtedly hamper the Vita in Japan.

2) The 3DS has one analog stick. Will we continue to force ourselves to use the dreaded "claw technique"?

A: Yes, and no. It depends solely on the user. A new peripheral has been unveiled that will add another analog to the 3DS. Buy it = No claw technique. Don't buy it = Claw technique. Below is a picture of said item.




3) Is monster Hunter 3G a completely new game, or an expansion to an existing game?

A: I would happen to think that 3G is a sort of expansion to Monster Hunter TRI on the wii. As for Monster Hunter 4; I would imagine it to be a new game.

Note: Both of these games are currently slated for release in Japan. It is unknown if they ever will see a North American release.
