Meh.. Vita is dead anyway. There's no chance in hell it's gonna catch up to 3DS. They've already secured their spot.

Sony just completely forgot to follow it up after all the hype it got when it launched.

Highly unlikely a main MH franchise is gonna come to Vita. There's just 0 market in it. Also Nintendo's not stupid enough to even let go of this franchise. But I could be proven wrong anyways. So whatever.


It doesnt need to catch up to the 3DS, the psp had half the sales of the DS and it did fine. Sonys making money off the Vita thats all the matters.



very true! even gamecube software sales made nintendo break even!

Or its just a common sense on Capcom side to not shit on your big game sales before its launch on another platform. (I know - Capcom and common sense sounds very strange together, but who knows?)

Now there won´t be any excuses (who am I kidding). I already see the new headlines next years. Not even Monster Hunter saved the PSV.

The reason for this is a very obvious one. There will be the PS3 version in November to port from.

Maybe not the Monster Hunter you all want, but it’s [a] start. From small acorns etc.

Well, at least the Vita gets a game.

Kinda like Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles on GameCube meant FFX/XI/XII would show up on GCN, lol.

Nintendo is probably re-upping their deal with Capcom for more mainline MH games and also probably locked down DQXI a while ago. All that Wii Sports/Fit/Nintendogs/Wii/Brain Training monies they made years ago is still enough for a monster cash pile that can secure franchises Nintendo is motivated to lock down.

I wish they would moneyhat some Western titles though, we deserve some lovin' over here.

There you are. A port of port which is on 2 other systems a few years late.

Let's face it. This will do nothing for no system.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

One of the best news I heard so far.

It was like FF XIV Super big announcement on E3. Damn!

Haha. I find this amusing simply because yesterday I was discussing with the_dengle how 2013 marked the first time we've seen a multi-plat MonHun release (Frontier PS3U) was a good sign. And then the next day the exact same game gets announced for Vita too.

Won't do anything for the platform and I suspect it'll perform horribly in sales too. I don't know why Capcom are pushing this game on any platform.

Still, it is what it is I suppose. And what it appears to be is "barely better than nothing, but possibly a glimmer of hope for the future".
