Wrong again.  I never said a deal is fact. You are 100% wrong saying that.  I said it's my opinion,  my belief.  

⇒ No offense but you make it seem like this is the only logical explanation as does others. Could be true but it just looks less likely as years go by, and this "guess" will continue to be said as long as MH stays on Nin platforms

 

You then say I've clung to this idea for years.  It's not something I've ever even thought about except this year and last.  Again you're wrong about that.  

⇒Well this doesn't matter really does it?

 

Now you can believe in things like capcom looked into their crystal ball,  assets were easy to port et all and ignore how cheap it is to develop for vita.  While ignoring what makes most business sense for capcom.  

⇒ They didn't look into their crstal ball, if they had to put it on 1 platform 3ds was the way to go. Looks like Capcom decision paid off!

 

Their audience was on Playstation.  Monster hunter fans would have followed to ps3/vita.  But I believe they decided to maximise the financial gain.  Give it to the highest bidder.  Be it 30m, 50m or 100m. 

⇒ "Was" as in on psp. 3ds and Vita werent out yet, MH is a TRUE system Seller so platform of choice didn't matter to the majority of MH fans. Ironically it seems MH is better off to stay on Nintendo platforms due to the ever rising of western sales (MH4G is huge in the West with well over 1mil in sales). By your current logic, there is no point in making a Game for Sony platform (unless multiplat?)

 

That's how smart business works.  Nintendo pay them.  Capcom gains financially and continues to get big future sales anyway. Nintendo have eliminated their handheld rival in Japan.  

⇒That is how smart business works, yet there is no proof and only speculation. If Nintendo really did buy them out i think we here about it in the same way we heard from SFV/Bayo2/Tomb Raider/Titanfall/etc was bought/deal/whatever made but we didn't.

 

This is not some fan like thinking by the corporations,  it's smart business.  The deal would have a term.  Maybe it's over this year.  Maybe next.  Maybe it lasts until MH5. Maybe just a time frame and that's why they did MHX instead of MH5. So MH5 can go up for tender again or multiplatform.  

⇒Its a smart business if its true, otherwise its still fans being delusional because my game isnt on my platform. I swear i wish Nintendo outflat says if a deal or not went on. Its tiresome already. Rumor was it was suppose to last 3 years. (2010-2012?) but here we are :/

 

It's all speculation.  My speculation makes business sense.  Is it fact?  Who knows.  But to say I'm clinging to this and desperate is just weak and your argument loses all credibility. 

⇒Exactly all speculation which by time just seems more like speculation than fact as the years go by.....
