Capcom said they won't do MH for PS3 because the production cost was too high... but in March, Sony announced that their develop kits will be cheaper.

Do you think Capcom will bring us MH?

I think Sony must talk to Capcom, MH is a religion in Japan and is selling good in NA and EU.

No, it's going to Wii

However, in the future, you would have thought they could do some PSP connectivity which would do great in Japan, and be really good for PS3

 Yes, I know MH3 is Wii exclusive but I was talking about Monster Hunter serie.

Maybe they bring us a new Monster Hunter, and yes, you are right.. something with PSP connectivity will be huge! This game is a system seller (at least in Japan)

Well, the development kit is only a tiny fraction compared to the real development cost, which would be to make Monster Hunter in HD. So don't count on it.

MH3 or something like it will most probably come to PSP though.

But unless it sells crap it will be console exclusive to Wii and most likely MH4 as well, since the engine and everything is already done. Besides Capcom apparently feels Monster Hunter doesn't deserve an HD budget.

And Wii is much closer to PSP in power, so porting to its most profitable platform is easier.

No.

It's pretty obvious that #3 won't come to PS3. Maybe another will one day, though.

I agree with Benga, if MH3 goes multiplatform, it will be PSP/Wii

They once asked Sven about potential DS version, and he answered that Capcom appreciate the idea, but don't see the point since the fanbase is already on PSP.

Now compare DS and PS3 userbase numbers in Japan, and you'll get your answer.

No point at all, maximum input for minimum output. Would cost a huge amount to produce only for it to sell less then the Wii version. MH3 on Wii will do great as will MHP3G on the PSP, easy to make games for both those systems.

I'm going to say they might, just not anytime soon. MH3 won't come to ps3. They need a larger PS3 userbase in Japan, and as things are going right now they may have it in a few years. More than likely they'll see how well MH3 does on the wii, then go from there. MH might be too 'tied' to Sony fans to do well on a Nintendo system, we'll have to wait and see. It's not irrational to think a PSP/PS2 owner might want a PS3 over a wii, and may not even bother picking up a wii for it. All likely they'll probably keep pumping out a lot of PSP versions after MH3.
