The fanbase in Japan dont care about brands. Reactions seem to be largely positive if youtube is anything to go by. The 4m+ players are mostly true fans who had it on PSP. Who are looking for a good experience regardless of the system. Although portability and local multiplayer is probably a big factor why the series is big to begin with, this will prove much more detrimental for MH World than PS4's install base which could otherwise easily grow like PSP's...
Dragon Quest and Monster Hunter fans shouldn't be mixed with "Nintendo fans" There is a reason why PS4 DQXI is outperforming 3DS version in preorders. |
I wasn't mixing Nintendo fans with MH fans I'm sure there are a lot of Mh fans that are going to make the jump to the ps4 just like they jumped from the ps2 to the PSP, Wii and 3ds but as someone that greatly preferres this series on handhelds and isn't a fan of a lot of the changes they're making to cater to Western audiences mh world coupled with the lack of commitment for a XX localization feels really sketchy. This is probably how tomb raider fans felt when rise was xb1 exclusive even though the series was popularized on Sony hardware. i have a ps4 and I may still end up with this but still it left a bad taste in my mouth.
