Correction, it is big franchise in Japan only

It's not that we didn't know about it (lulz, teh Internets exists), it's just that we couldn't play the games.I

If you had a ps2 you can play monster hunter 1 in america. It did come here. If you had a PSP you can play monster hunter 1 and 2 on it, and if your like me if you hack your psp you can get Monster Hunter 2 G on you psp and put an english patch on it. Also Monster Hunter 2 Unite is coming out which is the expansion to it.



CURRENTLY PLAYING:  Warframe, Witcher 2

I never cared because of the name.

There.

I said it.

I'm not sorry.

Now that I've given it a fair shake it looks pretty cool. That's all there is to it.

I should have said that I couldn't play the games, since I don't have a PSP. :(

And for some reason, the stores near here never had any Monster Hunter game on the shelves. That's pobably why I fail for not knowing MH1 came out on PS2!



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

I wouldn't recomend getting the ps2 version anymore :( last year they took the online off....so pretty much 3/4 of the game is unplayable. Monster hunter is a co-op title and I would absolutely not recommend it unless you're able to play with someone else.

People pretend that games on other platforms don't interest them.

Xbox fans like to bash MGS, but as soon as there's a slight possibility that it might come to their console, all is forgotten. The Conduit is the most anticipated upcoming game among Wii fans, but apparently, 360/ps3's huge selection of shooters does nothing for them.

It's nothing new.

 

As far as the Conduit goes, I think a lot of the excitement is over the motion controls with the FPS. I personally hate playing fps games on the 360 now that I have experienced the Wii remote.



Around the Network

People arent willing to do all the shit you did to play a game they are unsure about.
Again most people who have a Wii now probably didnt have a PS2 or own a PSP now.

Theyve heard buzz around the internet. Wii got this game instead of PS3. That alone made them interested. Theyve seen what Capcom is trying to do and now are excited.

Why do they need some reason to like this game beside saying it look interesting?

@OkeyDokey
Yea and PS360 owners say there are no games coming to Wii but if (PS3 owners especially!) would get all the JRPG that Wii has they would be more than excited. Of course they dont because the graphics make their eyesbleed.

Well its a website/forum about Sales and MH III is a big seller in Japan (and a big franchise) so a switch of this product to the Wii is a big thing, it shows that third parties do treat that platform seriously, and it also shows another game that SOny was unable to keep as exclusive, this solely does generate a lot of interest from people on this forum.

I never played this title because last gen i did not spend much time playing games, but now i am interested in this game, especially if it comes to a console that i happen to own. I really do not know whats wrong with game becoming more popular then before is that REALLy a bad thing? Because after reading DMeisterJ posts it seems like youre not happy about more people wanting to play MH III.

Maybe this franchise has some real chance of getting some attention in the West? And Wii maybe can help it, as a fan you should be happy man.

I have been playing Monster Hunter every sense day 1 launch and have been playing it non-stop even to this day modding my ps2, getting japanese web service to play MH2 on ps2, and hacking my psp to just get the game. Whenever the topic was brought up many people dismissed it with ignorance claiming it to be a pokemon immitation. Those that did play only got an hour or two in not getting throught the minor tasks or not going online with it and complained about the camera system.

Now all of sudden everyone says," They can't wait".......so what the hell happened that i missed to make everyone bitch or just plane ignorant about it care. God knows it is not advertising, as there hasn't been a Monster hunter add in america for years now.

2 simple reasons both related to just fanboyism.

 

1. When announced for Wii people saw it a PS2 exclusive coming to Wii and hoping that means many others follow and to gloat in PS3 fans face. 

2. Sony fans wanting the PSP to be amazing.  Because of the PSP's sales when the game came out in Japan they all bring up MH as a reason for devolopers to make more games for PSP cause they will sell amazing.

 



i played them alittle but never got truly into them, untill i played them on the psp. and since the 3rd one is coming to the wii, it gives me a reason to take my wii online in gaming.
