Is Japan so a lot more casual input into business ideas, deals haapen because friends from different companies have a drink and come out with crazy ideas, then champion it with the bosses.  Is apparently how Street Fighter x Tekken and eventually TxSF come about, Ono and Harada are friends and came up with the idea one night.  Similar story for Snake in SSBB.

I think game producers in Japan have way too much freedom and voice in the busines side of things, the entire GC mess was mainly Mikami, the decision of where Resident Evil went was up to him and he argued other games for GC too.  Is entirely possible whoever does Monster Hunter said he wanted to do it on 3DS and Capcom said 'fine'.

As to MH3P HD being blocked, both Sony and Capcom were to blame, SCEA would not update ad-hoc for whatever reason, but Capcom didn't want to make the effort to meet PS3 requirements in the west like trophy support and some other things.  Capcom didn't have to use ad-hoc either, could have gone with normal PSN system.  Being cheap.


I don't mean this to sound condecending, but I have never agreed with a post of yours more.  Particularly the two underlined sections.
