This is incredibly great news for me, because due to my afternoon shift I play video games around 11:00-noon on weekdays currently, meaning i would have had to cut down my online MH time drastically, but now i'll be on just when Europeans will be getting off school and work.

w00t!

It was about time
It might reconsider the purchase then, i want the black WiiU and that MH bundle looks great despite MH not being my cup of tea

Good for them, changing their stance in the face of fan feedback. Smart move, I'm impressed. And happy for you Wii-U owners!

All 3rd party games should offer Off TV play so long as the game doesn't require usage of both screens like ZombiU.

That really is the only option they need to add. Having HUD in the gamepad isn't as great as it sounds. But pause menu items are nice there.

*Read the title* I thought we knew that already... (off-screen play atleast)

Quite the contrary - the game was previously officially confirmed to not support off TV play...

Very good to hear they're listening to their fan feedback. This is what demos should be used for!

I meant to join you guys on the MH3 on Wii towards the end but never made the time (I beat the game but didn't get all the bad ass equipment though). Anyways, I hope to be able to play with more VGCers on MH3U.

I also never got to play Tri online - because I never got enough play time with it, due to the TV being occupied whenever I was ready to play. Add to this the fact that while I have a US Wii (and now a US Wii U), I am actually on European time, this makes cross-region online a boon for me!
