Capcom should be more worried because this looks like Monster Hunter (and Phantasy Star Online 2), only with far better graphics and mecha.

Monster Hunter is on a heavy decline in Japan, and this might end up being the replacement for Nintendo.

Monster Hunter in heavy decline? Wat?

Japan sales figures (via VGC)

When you suddenly lose nearly 2/3 of your audience, you have a big problem.

So the 1st MH on 3DS sold as well as the first MH on the PSP? We should at least wait for MH4's sales before judging the sales on 3DS.
