I dunno, we can still get an unspecific franchise announcement, and still see Capcom focus on MHP3 for this year.  Look at Square Enix with KH at E3, they didn't hold back on their 3DS announcement just to give BBS some time to shine... TGS really is the perfect time...

Oh dear, I hadn't even thought about it but... a 3D Monster Hunter for 3DS would be an instant killer-app for Japan. PSP2, even if it existed, would be broken, crushed, pulverized, then blown away.

Also, I fully expect Apple to announce an iPhone/Pad/Pod with a 3D screen within the next year or so. Just you wait.

I think that if maybe they do this , PS3 would finally be able to take over 360 in a huge way , imagine every single studio working on PS3 exclusives , this would put MS to shame (when talking about first party exclusives)

I agree this TGS square will be all about supporting 3DS (and PS3).

FF5 remake please (and FF6 but it will come after FF5).

The question for me , is IF there is a PSP 2 how could it be relevant ? Visuals on par with PS3 ? (Didnt worked before) Dual screens ? (Its so way 2004) Touch Screen (My android phone does it very well) PSPhone ? (I dont think that the price would be low at competitive level) Multi-Media ?(Can it plays AVATAR in 3D ? It better do cuz 3DS cans) And the 3d photos can top that ? (I think that Teens and kids will be all over 3D pictures, and if can take a pic, its just a matter of time to some 3D video shooting -can imagine homeporn 3d with the help of 3DS hduashdasuhdausd).

Really the only way to make PSP relevant would to creat a machine totally new and innovative (but we all know that sony cant do this kind of thing)

SONY will try to cram everything into one machine and still sell 50 Million

It isn't a matter of winning or loosing now, its a matter of maintaining the share they gained in the portable market last gen.

The core problem there (and why 3DS only has 1 3D screen) is the touchscreen.  It destroys the 3D effect, and while Mitsubishi/Sharp/etc are currently working on solutions for that (some involving cameras) I dunno if there's going to be a solution that's "good enough" ready for Apple rollouts next summer...

True, but KH BBS already launched in Japan 6 months ago and it won't sell in the west regardless. It would be a MAJOR surprirse if they announce MH 3DS this year. My bet is on next year or on Famitsu somewhere. I think at this year TGS Capcom will showcase the RE game, maybe bring out an Onimusha or BoF or something like that, maybe even that MH spin off game, but not MH3DS yet, that would literally kill MHP3 sales and Capcom doesn't want that.

Yes but we're discussing whether or not MH3DS will be announced at this year's TGS or not. It will certainly be announced at some point, but I really doubt it'll be announced this year for the reasons I already mentioned.

Expect a MH3 DS announced and a DQX DS announced.

But next TGS not this one. I don't think SONY will let go of MH3 P exclusivity for at least 6 months.
