No Nintendo Switch or Mobile announcements

[Man God]

MHXG

 

[Enter the Dragon Punch]

Switch port of X and/or Stories if I had to guess

Plus a revision of X/Gens for 3DS

 

[random25]

Monster Hunter Switch I guess?

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Aww snap, hope they put stories on NS in the west

 

[takriel]

more general Switch info?

 

[kuroneko0509]

should be about that 2 million MH title

Switch port of X and/or Stories if I had to guess

Plus a revision of X/Gens for 3DS

Monster Hunter Switch I guess?

more general Switch info?

no switch (and smartphone) stuff

 

[Bjoern the Smexy]

Oooh, that's gonna be interesting.
Though I wouldn't expect any Switch news in this.
I would gladly take some, though.

New game or port of Generations, I don't care, as long as I can play MH in HD again.

 

[dragonlife]

Oh, shit.

 

[Kinsei]

Please be MH5. MHGen wasn't good enough to warrant a G version.

 

[Jacobs]

No smartphone or switch info. Is stated underneath the logo.

 

[Maedre]

So 11:00 AM in Europe?

 

[Mephala]

Switch or not I'm still excited. Hopefully more MH Story info.

 

[Eolz]

MonHun XG is my guess, crossplatform 3DS and Switch.
Edit: too soon for 5 anyway, they'll wait for the switch reveal to confirm it like they did for 4.

 

[Qurupeke]

Monster Hunter Vita :^)

I have no idea what this could be.

 

[zeromcd73]

My switch is ready

 

[cw_sasuke]

...well this escalated quickly.

3DS/Switch obv.

 

[ggx2ac]

Finally, it's going to be crazy if this is for Switch at launch considering the unannounced Monster Hunter title to be released by the end of the fiscal year at March.

Edit: No Switch confirmed, never mind.

 

[MightyKAC]

Monster Hunter Switch I guess?

If they show this as a launch title (or close to launch title) somewhere down the line and it looks even halfway decent then I'm all in for a Switch day fucking one.

 

[ponpo]

Didn't Nintendo say they weren't announcing any games for Switch until 2017? Probably not that then.

No switch or smartphone game will be announced.

 

[LordKano]

Here is it. Monster Hunter Switch.

 

[GwyndolinCinder]

The perfect monster hunter machine

 

[random25]

should be about that 2 million MH title


no switch (and smartphone) stuff

Huh. So a new 3DS title most likely?

 

[JoeM86]

Didn't Nintendo say they weren't announcing any games for Switch until 2017? Probably not that then.

One journalist says they said that. Plus they never said anything about Capcom not announcing any

But yeah, it says no Switch in the text

 

[Stairouais]

No way they show something on Switch. It's probably just MH:GU.

 

[GasProblem]

Oh shit!

Hope this is MH Switch.

Having MH Switch as a title in the launch period of the Switch will certainly help it in Japan.

Edit: I guess no Switch.

 

[GhostTrick]

Here is it. Monster Hunter Switch.

No switch/mobile news it seems.

 

[Luigiv]

Huh, now aint that something? MHS just came out and this is a Japanese direct so this has to be the announcement of a new game. My heart wants this to be MH5 for switch, but given how random this direct is, it's probably MHXG for 3DS (which honestly I think would be a mistake).

 

[ponpo]

One journalist says they said that. Plus they never said anything about Capcom not announcing any

But yeah, it says no Switch in the text

I was thinking about the latter point but I guess even if other devs were able to announce things it wouldn't be at a direct.

 

[casiopao]

MH switch baby^~^

It is going to be MHS and i will still be hyped byebye.

 

[LiberaTeExInferis]

fuck the no switch quote...

 

[kuroneko0509]

Huh. So a new 3DS title most likely?

most likely yes. this should be the mystery 2m monhun title that was mentioned in previous Capcom financials... although i'm not denying the chance it will be for switch later in the future too

 

[LordKano]

No switch or smartphone game will be announced.

Nah, it's just like when they say "The direct is 3DS only" and they still show Wii U games in it.
I would be extremely surprised if they didn't at least mention the obvious Switch version.

 

[Milly Osworth]

It says Switch on that page. I guess "No Switch talk you SUCKERS!"

 

[KingSnake]

No Switch news? Meh.

 

[Garou]

Monster Hunter Stories: Sushi/Tempura!!! Finally!

 

[Zalman]

Maybe they should have done this Direct earlier because now everyone's all about dat Switch.

 

[zeromcd73]

No Switch? Not watching meh

 

[Insaniac]

i won't get my hopes up... i expect it'll just be some new DLC quests with some special armor

 

[JimPanzer]

OMFG

MONSTER HUNTER X FUCKIN G

 

[random25]

most likely yes. this should be the mystery 2m monhun title that was mentioned in previous Capcom financials... although i'm not denying the chance it will be for switch later in the future too

3DS in 2017 keeps chugging along lol. But yeah it makes sense to be on 3DS given that the audience is still solid there.

 

[nephilimdj]

Finally releasing that cat simulator game in the west, but putting zelda and metroid in it to make nintendo fans buy it.

 

[Jacobs]

Nah, it's just like when they say "The direct is 3DS only" and they still show Wii U games in it.
I would be extremely surprised if they didn't at least mention the obvious Switch version.

Ehm no.. it states no information about switch or NX aplications

 

[Parakeetman]

OMFG

MONSTER HUNTER X FUCKIN G

I demand lances and gunlances for cats

 

[YAWN]

Bloody hell!
This month has been insane for me. Pokemon leaks, Switch reveal, and now a MH direct?
I don't even care what it is, Im way passed happy at this point.

 

[kuroneko0509]

Nah, it's just like when they say "The direct is 3DS only" and they still show Wii U games in it.

whenever they state no smartphone/nx in previous direct, they really meant it.

 

[Rymuth]

Monster Hunter f2p. Frontier Z finally getting that spotlight.

 

[cw_sasuke]

The Switch version will make the 3DS version look like garbage - so i can see why they wouldnt show them the same time.

But man i kinda hate Nintendo for still holding back on all that Switch awesomeness. We gotta eat.

 

[Kouriozan]

Now we're talking
I'll be extremely surprised if it's 5.
