When MH3 was on the PS3, it was going to be the greatest thing since sliced bread.
Now that it's on the Wii, it won't sell because it won't translate to a console.

Anyone who thought that MH3 sell good on a console needs to take a long hard look at Monster Hunter sales for the PS2, a console that's sold 5x what the Wii is at now. I've always wanted it on the PS3/360 for 'true' next-gen graphics, and because I don't plan on buying a Wii, so I'd want it on a home console. The sales for the Wii version won't be higher than sales for the PS2, first, because the install base is nowhere near the PS2s, and because Monster Hunter doesn't sell on consoles. Anyone who believes that monster hunter will sell on the PS3/Wii/XBOX 360 as well as it's sold on the PSP is delusiona, because that would never happen. Now if it was on the DS, that'd be a different thing. But I'd like to see some posts where people said that this game would sell on the Wii. I'd venture to say that the person who posted it is Crazzyman. |
Granted I never played a Monster Hunter game, but it seems very visual with impressive movie scenes, boss fights and everything. I think the PSP is a much better fit than the DS for this sort of game: Monster Hunter Portable 2 (PSP)

Oh, it's perfect for the PSP. I own Monster Hunter Freedom, and it's sequel. The controls are a slight bit wonky, but I've adjusted. I was talking about how it would sell, and it would sell better on DS than on PSP, but the game couldn't really be done on DS, it uses all the PSP buttons... yeah, you could use the touch screen, but then you wouldn't be able to use the face buttons, and I'm not too sure how that'd work. |
