I think the main reason for Capcom was to popularize MH in the West and what consoles are more fit for the job than the classic PS4/Xone combo.

Well that is what they say is the main reason, but that is just the consequence of them not expecting there to be a platform to replace the 3DS which would rack in the Japanese sales. In their mind, they were forced to focus on the West by the circumstances of the dedicated gaming platform market. The only thing they didn't consider was the Switch.
