Capcom on Monster Hunter possiblity on Switch: "Hope you enjoy it on 3DS first."
WSJ's Takashi Mochizaki asked Capcom about the series coming to to Switch, and said:

Capcom didn't deny Monster Hunter on Switch. I asked if it's coming to Switch, and Mr. Kojima said "Hope you enjoy it on 3DS first."



That should be Shintaro Kojima that he's referring to, who was the producer on both Generations and Double Cross if I'm reading correctly.

When and not if I would think at this point.

Best guess: Monster Hunter XX (Double Cross) HD Ver. on Switch, holiday 2017, and then Monster Hunter 5 on Switch maybe late next year?

Switch needs this. Once it gets MH and DQXI. Nintendo will own Japan. Vita will be dead (sadly) there as well.

Theres no doubt its coming to the Switch! But the question of will it be a Switch Exclusive still remains.

Yeah, it would be excellent for it to happen.But it cant be an HD update only, it needs to be a new entry, even if takes more than a year to happen.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

They should just make this franchise multiplatform already. Its getting more popular in the west, so it would be smart.

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

Monster Hunter is 100% coming to Switch at some point, I mean where else is it gonna go? The 3DS is reaching the end of it's life cycle and the Switch will be the only portable console out there, either it comes to the Switch or Capcom kills off the IP.

I think Nintendo knows how important is this franchise for them so expect the usual exclusivity because $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
