Sony probably will pay for Monster Hunter Portable 4 be an PSP2 exclusivo.

I suppose that would really pricey considering that Capcom might also have a shitload of profit with a 3DS iteration.


 

It will sell just as well on PSP2. Not to mention that MHP is more than one game series for PSP. It defines whole platform in Japan. Sony would be stupid not to moneyhat capcom and I seriously doubt that Nintendo will enter that race as they already have Pokemon, Mario and probably next DQ so they really don't need MHP. it would be just nice bonus.

Don't be so sure, after all Nintendo outmaneuvered Sony for MH3, there's no telling if they'll do the same or not for MHP4.  MoHun's one of the series Iwata's taken a personal interest in even, I think Nintendo will definitely fight for it (and Dragon Quest... Final Fantasy they seem to have little desire in grabbing).

I tend to agree that Sony needs MHP4 more though... if they can't secure that game, then they might as well not bother with PSP2 imo.

Though home console MH is a lot smaller game compared to its portable version and PS3 actually has better 3rd party support in Japan than Wii so maybe Nintendo felt that they really need it. We shall see what happens with MHP4. I bet that it ends up on PSP2 as Sony really needs it and usually when it comes to 3rd parties Sony has handled them better than Nintendo. It won't be huge surprise though if it comes to 3ds after all.
