That Monster Hunter quote was from back in September, and it was talking about Monster Hunter 4 I believe, the new report where the Sony guy says to expect Monster Hunter in the coming months was a couple weeks ago and could be in reference to the MH3 listed on the pamphlet. As for MH4 though, my money is on that if it is exclusive at all, expect timed. We all know what happened with MH3. Eventually a portable MH3 made it's way to the PSP, so I see no reason to not expect a different MH4 on the Vita.

Planst Vs Zombies is listed as SOE because it seems they are working together to get it to work properly with the Vita or maybe they are adding exclusive stuff for Vita only.

It was originally discovered through a tweet.

Unbounded is a full fledged game while Ridge Racer Vita is more of a demo, with just 5 cars and 3 tracks. If anything it could just be a typo since Unbounded isn't listed for Vita.

 

However, one typo does not discredit a list where according to many sources the rest of the list looks to be accurate.

To summarize, assuming that a MH is indeed coming for the Vita, all signs point to it being a remastered version of MHP3 for the PS3 which was a remastered version of MHP3 for the PSP. This is the best case scenario.

The starting point for all of this was a (now banned) member talking about MH for the Vita, but I don't think this is what he had in mind. A slightly altered version isn't reason enough to buy a new system, MH popularity or not. Which is what all this thread is about.

I would hate to think that Monster Hunter is the only reason to buy a handheld in Japan these days.

Although I have yet to really give Monster Hunter a shot.
