Well... it might get to 300-400k in Japan alone if they get into it... but unless they have fixed the woes of Monster Hunter gameplay (repetitiveness), then there is no chance the game will sell very well in the west.
I am really tired of MH structure on portable games. Japanese might like it, but its completely unviable in the west. Not only that but it only served to hurt other series where that kind of design splashed into (Metal gear solid peacewalker and Valkyria Chronicles 2 come to mind).
I say no to repetitive design. Just stop it, it doesnt make your game better. Sometimes, less is more.
