Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate announced for Wii U/3DS, coming to West, no 3DS online

Sync saves.. my mind, my mind. This is so good. I'm going to be out of the country for a year and only the 3DS version will be played for the first couple of months. If I get home and buy a Wii U I can continue the game in HD and online and go back and forth. I was asking for so little.. and they gave us so much.. Capgod.. capgod. Why did you have to make me doubt you.

Jesus....Capcom redeemed? Hella yeah! I hope the save works on some street pass godsmanship too; just walking about, sharing my save file....lovely...
 
MH is nowhere near as big on console. Now I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't true, but just look back at the last HD MH port on the ps3 in Japan and you'll see it's not really a system seller.

Well, they have it both on console and portable and at this point they might even release Monster Hunter 4 on WiiU.

I wonder if the JP versions of 3G for 3DS will be patched to support transfarring?

 ニンテンドー3DS用ソフト『モンスターハンター3(トライ)G』とセーブデータの共有や、ローカル通信を使った協力プレイが可能。また、Wii U版どうしならインターネットを介したオンラインプレイにも対応している。

Yap, in Japan too. I bet Capcom planned all this from the start.
 
Do we know if online play will still be region-restricted? Bought MH Tri for Wii (NA) and couldn't play with my PAL buddy because of different servers :(
 
Is it weird they didn't mention online fees for Japan? Would they just do it later when they've already announced the price?
 
Weird, this doesn't mention online play on either platform.

While weird, the features video that was posted above does show off the Wii U version as having online play. Reggie even specifically mentioned the Wii U version as having online play at the conference, too.
 
Finally.

Yet another game to add to my list of must-play, though it doesn't quite get the priority as the rest, due to being an expansion. Wii-U is going to be mine earlier than expected.
 
So we don't know any details about the title yet?

I may have played MH Tri to death, but I will get this game. I was so worried Capcom may just give us a lame port of something most of us don't want like RE 5, Asura's Wrath, Dragon's Dogma, or Street Fighter Versus Tekken.
 
Well, they have it both on console and portable and at this point they might even release Monster Hunter 4 on WiiU.

They could, but once again you'd see millions being sold on the 3DS and a couple hundred thousand on the Wii U. Japan is pretty handheld centric for MH games. It's the ability to meet up and play together rather than annonymous online that made MH so huge in Japan.
 
The crossplay thing I did not see coming. Really smart idea for making the console version work.
 
I honestly gave up hope; that's something I never do, but I really did think that MH was finished in the west.

And to be rewarded like this? They should have sent a poet.
