MHP4 will be the next Pokemon thing for Nintendo in Japan, I doubt Sony will get the same game at the same time as 3DS. Maybe Vita will get MHP5 but I don't think MHP4.

HOLY COW. I think its confirmed its not coming for vita.

This thread made my day. It's even better than the show I'm watching. Wildly entertained, man. Hats off to you.

SCEJ President confirmed in an interview with Reuters that there is no Monster Hunter 4 for PlayStation Vita unless Capcom changes their mind.

Sony will try anything to get it. Trust me.

which means that so far IT'S NOT COMING TO VITA!!! Sorry bro your words not mine.  I still think it might come in 2-3 years after the 3DS iteration but that's just my opinion.  

And do you think that Sony will be so arrogant allowing Nintendo handhelds to keep Monster Hunter for long? Nintendo's new handheld already have working Pokemon games now they have Monster Hunter as well. That's too scary for Sony and they will try to change that.

I'm not telling that MH4 is not going to be released only for 3DS in the beggining. But no way Sony will wait 2-3 years, they can't afford that.

Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo have done dumber things then that before so sadly it wouldn't surprise me at this point.

not releasing Xenoblade, Pandora's Tower, and Last Story comes to mind for Nintendo.  Sony pricing the PS3 at $500, stripping backward compatibility and releasing the PSP Go among others for Sony!!! As for M$...they never make mistakes o__O ...no buying Rare was genius I tell you...just watch...aww forget it!!! :P

Nintendo really need this exclusivity so I think its not going to Vita.

My head hurts....
