Hardcore fans will, for sure. I'm just hoping it's the same cost as the 3DS version, unless it offers substantially more content and features

Curious to see how this sells. MHXX hasn't performed all that well on the 3DS but I think in part that was because everyone is ready for MH to more into next gen. Depending on how good of a port this is I could see it selling really well.
Now the wait begins for MH5.

Thanks, doesn't sound too enticing for me
G-rank introduces alot of things.
G-rank quests, regular/arena (tougher, new drops)
G-rank monsters (tougher, new attacks).
G-rank weapons (most weapons can upgrade further)
G-rank armour (different designs, more skills)
If you like spending insane hours farming and crafting new gear, building custom armour sets to show off and just enjoying playing online with people then you will like this game. It's sorta like Destiny in that sense.
Buying XX just for solo play seems tedious and not worth it especially if you already played X.
Personally, MH is my go-to online game, and I purposefully skipped Generations knowing a G-rank version would happen. It coming to Switch is great news for me (much more comfortable than 3ds). I'm just hoping it's a good port with maybe enhanced vusuals, better online features with keyboard support and most importantly, no input delay!

I'm trying to figure out what price MH3U launched at on Wii U. Destructoid's review says US $60 when the 3DS version was $40. If that's the case, I won't be surprised if this is US $60 (and the equivalent in other countries) as well.
In most cases where a game is both on an old and new console, it's not uncommon for the new console version to be more expensive.

What a surprise lol.
MonHun 5 teaser at TGS then.
If it's 40-50$, this is not overpriced. Nothing to do with and old SF2 enhanced port.

It's nice to see GAF all excited about Capcom again, but some reactions to the interview yesterday were nonsense.

Doesn't read OPs, especially not his own
I remember 50
it's weird to see people shaming on capcom in the morning and then thanking them in the evening. This should be a new trend
It was a very "well, prove it" thread, followed by an "oh, well OK then!" thread.

Please update your preferences to support 100ppp! (posts per page)
Mostly because they stay consistent and don't blue ball you when you can't play the thing from your dream.

Was that also the case with the PS4/XB1? I only remember that happening when there were substantial improvements or more content over the last gen version

Agreed, not everyone is going to announce everything immediately. Time would tell

Switch is turning out to be the place to play all of the Nintendo games I skipped over the years. If they keep this up I'll definitely get one.
Ok, looks like a 3ds game in HD-ish resolution?

So what did the last entry sell on the 3DS?
I hope it looks better than this, because those are ps2/gamecube/xbox graphics

It's gonna be an upscaled 3DS game. Not much else can be expectedI hope it looks better than this, because those are ps2/gamecube/xbox graphics

They better not cheap out and just mash out a quick and dirty. This franchise is hilariously dated, and needs to join the current era. Please Capcom.
Please.
Please.
This is a port. Y'all are expecting too much.

Its a 3DS port, keep expectations in check.

A port from too big a generational gap. They need to jack up the textures at the very least.
Skill names? Item names? Quest names? MH relies heavily on using external tools/wikis. How will you search what's the best way to get 火竜の逆鱗? Draw the kanji each time? Keep using google's translate character recognition on your phone?
Persona 5 is 49,99$ on PS3, 59,99$ on PS4. There's no doubt there will be a HD tax. Hoping for 49.99$ for the Switch version but it'll most likely be 59,99$.
do you even know what you are talking about?

Pretty much looks comparable to the Wii U version of Monster Hunter 3 so no complaints from me.I hope it looks better than this, because those are ps2/gamecube/xbox graphics

My only downside of monhun on 3ds was the pisspoor resolution.
And that is fixed now.

Really? I honestly didn't know that. Is there anything extra for the PS4 version or is it just more costly because it's the newer system...despite it being like 3+ years old now?
I doubt there'll be anything in place. Zelda doesn't offer anything like that either.
+ The 3DS controls will be fixed with a real controller
PS4 has better performance but the content is the same. Another way you could look at it is that the PS3 version is 10$ cheaper. If there was no PS4 version, then the PS3 version would be standard 60$.
An even better example would be DQ: Builders or Toukiden: Kiwami; 40$ on vita, 60$ on PS4 because the standard price for handheld tittles is 40$ and for consoles it's 60$.
3 Ultimate did allow save sharing so I would expect it to be the same here

It looks slightly better.
It would be Capcom's call whether or not to implement it. Zelda not doing it does not factor into that likeliness.
With MH3U, there was a separate app for 3DS that you used alongside the Wii U game to transfer your save data. They could go this route either locally or via the cloud.
People that just bought XX for 3DS two months ago wouldn't be super happy to find out that they've been playing for the past couple months and will have to restart if they double dip for the superior version.
