If it came out on the handheld (Switch), like Capcom did with Monster Hunter 3. (Originally released on the Wii in 2009; G version came out for 3DS in 2011), then yeah, that would sell gangbusters.
That's not what I'm talking about though. I'm saying that we have reached the full extent of what a standalone, home console Monster Hunter game can do in Japan, both in terms of software and hardware.
