For those that can read japanese.

Does this mean the Vita lives?

Ya, one of those "insider" rumours. 

Itll happen eventually... Sony just need it to be something new and good. Not a port of MHP3 HD.

If they stole the exclusivity of MH4 from Nintendo, then it will be huge.

I would hope it isn't just a rumor. MH should be on the Vita.

I am sure fans of the game would prefer to not use a bulky peripheral and/or play with the claw.


The way it seems to be going now is almost no different than if it is just continued to release on the 7-year old PSP, if we do not include the bulky and quite ugly looking peripheral. A peripheral that honestly only further shows that is should be on the Vita.

Monster Hunter's current state ion my opinion, while not exactly a step back, it definitely is not a step forward for the franchise.

It's a rumor based on the words of an "industry insider".
Not too trustworthy IMO, but then I don't see a reason why Monster Hunter should not be on the Vita. I'm pretty sure Capcom loves money...

Pretty obvious its coming at some point

MH + Price cut in Japan for Holiday 2012, unless 3DS has a new Pokemon next holiday Vita and 3DS are going toe to toe in Japan.

They will and most likely do so in the same way they did MH3.

MH4G. They will need it badly if they have any hope to sell people on the 3G model.

...my Japanese is nonexistant, but did I see IGN in there?
