But I'm an eastern dude.

If they put it out for vita, then yes, good chance of 10m. Otherwise, no.

I had no idea 4G was already out in Japan?

This man knows what he's talking about. Capcom made a biiiiiiiig mistake....

Don't get me wrong, 4.1m shipped is a very respectable number.

But even with the west it likely won't even outsell either of the last two games that were on psp.

One of them being MH portable 3, which was basically all the maps from tri, but outsold tri on both the wii and the 3ds combined.

And from this, the only logical lesson Capcom will learn, is that MH as a franchise is dying and so they'll change it to make it more appealing to the casual audience. The real logical lesson is that the release was flawed, but let's be serious, this is capcom. They have no idea what they're doing.

I thought that all the PSP owners either own a 3DS or 3DS XL or are going to buy one of those two.

Everybody knows that the Eastern World only means Japan!

Nothing special for a MH game.
MHFU did 4.13m in japan and MHF3 4.87m

Sub 600k outside Japan For 4G

Who cares when they're just going to invest it into mobile again like retards.
