At this point, I don;t think MH3 will get a budget rerelease. I think we'll just see MH3G this summer with the added western content instead, and then that will get a BEST version in 2011 (probably alongside the PSP port).

I can see this happening if Nintendo want MH3G for sustained sales but I think they need a Best version too. It's an easy like 400-500k more sales with no effort.
I wonder if 3G will have free online in Japan.

I dunno, installments that get a "G" release tend not to get BEST reprints (MH1 PS2, MH2 PSP). I think it'll be the same for MH3, it'll get a "G" instead (for full price).
I also wouldn't count on them dropping fees in Japan, since last quarter they said subscriptions were above expectations. Then again, maybe it'd be in their best interests to drop fees and tie the game to systems instead, heading off the used market? They'd lose subscriptions, but sell more units that way.
