Random thought, but I just imagined that PSP2 is going to be very well received in Japan when it comes out.  Put one of these babies on it as a launch title and *BOOM* goes the dynamite.  The launch timetable is just about right too....


Unless they make the next MHP on the 3DS...

Anyway, wow at the lines :o Well deserved IMO. I hope they make MH4 soon too.

They might. Or maybe they like the idea of being the most dominant game on a platform.  And maybe the PSP2 could have some online advantages?  Should be interesting.

And also, there really is no reason not too.  How many more sales could have been achieved on the DS?  It's already one of the biggest, not like the DS would make it bigger than Pokemon or something.  But again, I guess we have to wait.

Not the DS though...the 3DS. The 3DS already has hype come from every side, PSP2 isn't announced and who knows how well it's receieved compared to the 3DS. It's not like Capcom has some sort of obligation to Sony, they could move the series to the 3DS if they wanted to. Not saying the PSP2 can't get it, but moving it to the 3DS sounds like a good idea to me.

Or it could be multiplatform and have cross play bewtween both systems that would be pretty awesome to me.

I know the 3DS.  Of course it has hype, but how much more can it do for the game that the DS couldn't?  I just don't see a necessary advantage.  I don't think it would see that drastic of a boost in sales when it's already doing numbers that are borderline pokemon.  On top of that, Capcom knows there is a gigantic fanbase on Sony's platform that is most likely guaranteed to be there for PSP2.  I know the 3DS and PSP crowds overlap to a degree, but why risk it when the money is already guaranteed?  Also, I think it's pretty obvious that it stands out far more on the PSP than it would on the 3DS.  Why compete with Pokemon and all the other games it will get.  Again, it will do 5 millionish sales on either platform. What's the motivation?



I was one of the few who expected Kirby >> DK. Obviously kirby didnt do well cuz it went out of the roots of the normal kirby game. But still many were convinced of a 300k FW with 1m LTD.. it's not looking good at all. It seems it will barely break 100k FW. Not good enough imo

I wonder if DK was to "fail", what would be the reason then?  It seems quite like the older ones...

I don't think it will "fail", btw.

At this point, the line circled the 300 meter circumference shop twice. Sales were originally supposed to have started at 7:00, but due to potential traffic issues, the shop pushed this up 30 minutes in advance. Despite the early start, the line continued to grow. A store representative estimated the line to be around 3,000 people by 7:30.

Red line was for Pokemon's first day on Saturday... the blue line is Monster Hunter this morning. =D Also what I have read from gaf it seems the game is sold out pretty much everywhere. Hopefully Capcom provides new shipment daily.
