Why has nobody done a battery life test yet?!
People are actually playing games. I know with the 3DS's launch that may have been a shocking thing to hear people say.
I'm kinda not since most ppl bought a memory card as well, not to mention we don't know how many of them went home and bought games on PSN at the discounted prices.
Actually, 1:1 is kind of high. Usually you don't get every person buying a game at launch.
I would check re: Mingol PSN version before ditching your hardcopy game. On the 8-4 podcast it says Mingol requires additional purchase of Online pass, which the hardcopy version doesn't need.
I doubt the PSN version requires an additional online pass purchase. Sony's done them in the past with PSP games, and if you buy it on PSN, it's included within the game.
That won't happen. Capcom'll localize the 3DS version. It's one reason why MH is done on PSP/Vita, since I'm sure Nintendo will give it a big push in the West like with Tri.
Monster Hunter Portable 3rd on PSP/PS3 is not the same game as Monster Hunter Tri G on 3DS. There is no 3DS version of that PSP game.
Set up a jpn account to havea look at thestore and download demos, but will switch to myUS account before playing retail games. Also no wifi in our house so need to find a hotspot tomorrow for more demos. Only managedto download ar combat which was confusing. Hopefully it wasnt the same game as in the recent AR showreel, because while playing in your living room is cute, it doesn't seem to use objects as obstacles
AR Combat Digi Q is not the same tank game (Pocket War) that appeared in that montage. Digi Q is a Konami title based off of remote control tank toys. Sony's making the games in that montage.
Pretty sure I've read every page and not seen this asked..
Do psminis transfer across ok?
Japan doesn't have a Minis line, localized Minis titles just appear as regular PSN games. But yes, they should work.
And Capcom has a history of going exclusive - does it make any sense for Tatsunoko vs. Capcom to be Wii-only? They never bothered porting that over. If there's a company that does things like this, it's Capcom.
Capcom is bizarre. Apparently the western divisions always knew that Monster Hunter was going to struggle in the west if it didn't have an online mode. So rather than spring for Japan to give them an online mode for the western releases, or keep that in mind for future releases, they sprung for an online mode in Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom - a game that sold worse than the PSP iterations of MH in the west. Sense, it makes none.
It's not only Nintendo, Capcom just wants maximum revenue with as little money spent as possible. They don't want to redo all their models in HD so the 3DS is perfect. They'll keep doing this until all systems require higher resolution textures.
But by going 3DS they actually will be losing revenue. If they had gone Vita, they'd have assets to make PC, PS3, 360, Wii U, iPad, iPhone, and current gen Android games. With the quality of graphics 3DS provides you, the only active platform for asset ports is Wii, and there's no way that gets another Monster Hunter at this point.
