Watch this game sell at least another million in the West, while the media dismiss it as being a first party title >_>

I wish I was confident that MH3 will sell a million in the West, but I'm not. MH is NOT an established franchise in the West, and from what I have heard the MH series has some quirks that Japanese gamers have long got used to as part of the series but Western gamers may not accept/like, making it hard for the franchise to succeed in the West.

[added]I am talking about things that don't bother me, but seem to have alienated people in the past - specifically lack of camera lock on during fights and the loading screens between areas[/added]

I could be totally off, but I have a hunch that MH3 could become a surprise hit in the west, particulrarly in America, especially if it gets a good marketing push. The game will sell 2 million in the US alone, you heard it here first! To me it seems like the style of game the West would like.
