So one can't put blame on Nintendo HH for the smaller sales of previous MH, but need to accept that the success of MHW is due to those versions? How is that?

The succes of world is in part cause nintendo HHs. How? I think the installments for the 3ds (3u, 4u and ultimate) were and are important cause they maintained the brand in peoples mind  it isnt like Monster Hunter is a new IP cause of those games. It would be harder to promote MH if it werent for the titles before mentioned. But it isnt all, eventhough they sold nobig numbers they were bigger in sales(in 3U case summing wiiu+ 3ds) than the previous games for the psp and wii. So i think the 3ds cant be disregarded for the MHW success in the west but considered alongside other variables. 

We have to only consider the possible good variables that make 3DS helping the success of MHW while there is no possibility that it would have been bigger numbers for previous entries if they weren't limited to it??? Makes zero sense.
