This is for a new copy, used is $18.99. Well worth it and the perfect entry point for anyone interested in the series. Price match possible at Best Buy, Target, Toys R Us and Walmart.

Still haven't really played my full price copy. Too hard to read the on screen text from my couch.

Yeah Capcom can't seem to figure out how text works on not-PSP screens. The 3DS version's text has depth, and is at such a depth that it only appears in full clarity at half 3D intensity. WTF.

I bought it digitally at launch...tempted to get the disc, if only to support the chances of another one coming over here. I'm almost 200 hours in, don't see myself slowing down anytime soon either.

Always been interested in this series and now have a Wii U.

Concerned that if I like it and future entries are on the PS4, data won't transfer over or whatever. Or is that not a concern with this series?

You can't transfer between different series. And I doubt the series will head back to PlayStation any time soon with the way Capcom is headed.

Data never transfers, and the series will probably stay on 3DS for the near future.

tempting...I don't have internet though. I actually own Monster Hunter Tri for Wii, but never got a chance to play online. Only playing offline for a few hours. Now the servers are gone. Not sure if I want to jump in again. Might when I get internet at my house again.

BUY BUY BUY

GOTY 2013. Plugged in hundreds of hours on both 3DS and WiiU versions.

One of the most rewarding gaming experiences out there. The more time you put in, the better it gets.

There's a reason why the MH series sells a bajillion copies in Japanland. Get a taste of it with this super good deal.

guild quests are nigh impossible to do solo wise on 3dsxl.

is there a lot of people playing this online ?

also, are you limited to what quests you can do based on HR ?

Well, since it doesn't seem like Monster Hunter 4 will be localized any time soon, if at all...

What are the limitations on crossplatform local multiplayer?

This is how it works for us every week, one dude hosting on WiiU and three of us on 3DS's

Screw it, I'll pick it up tomorrow after work. Never played Monster Hunter before, so I'll have to force my friend to teach me the ways of Monster Hunter.

I'll own four Wii U games and no Wii U (till X-mas).

Well, never mind then. Our situation would be two Wii U and one 3DS, so it would be totally impossible for all of us to play together in any form.

Is this definitely the in store price? Gamestop has gotten surly with me in the past when I ask about why the store price wasn't matching the online price

The prices should be the same espcially since you can do buy online pickup in store now.

It is the in-store price. I got the last sealed copy at my local GS.

I'm debating picking this up a second time. I bought it, put about 100+ hours into it and didn't think I'd want to play it again so I traded it in. . . and now I want to play it again.

Yeah, its frustrating. I don't blame them for not having a setup for two Wii U's locally, but I think there should have been an ability to bring a friend on 3DS in with you to an online lobby

Not really my favorite set, way too defensive. When you need skills to help you dodge you know you are doing something wrong. 8)
