Let's face it - MH failed. Badly. Right now it's one of the biggest franchises in Japan so fact it barely outsold PS2 version (when series were nowhere close to it's current popularity) means nothing. This game won't sell anywhere close to it's handheld incarnation. Believe and mark my signature.

Excuse me? Are you telling me 143k for a game that was released twice is bad? And it even outsold the PS2 version.

If MHG did 143k, MH3 can do 3 maybe even 4x the numbers MHG did. If they do a MH3 bundle Wii sales will be pretty big.

@everyone else saying "Haha, PS3 > Wii!"

So? Wow, the PS3 sold 1k more. That just means you're still doing shit (assuming that's what people think of Wii sales)...just you're in extremely slightly better shit. 1k is in the margin of error. So it's almost a virtual tie. Way to brag over nothing.

Oh, and I don't see anyone saying they were wrong in thinking how the PS3 could fall so low after last week (like The) but are ragging on Source.

No need to get so testy, but I think we know that MH sales on the PSP have to do more with the platform rather than the growing popularity of the series.

I personally think that MHG did alright.
