I can already smell it.

OH MAN
That, and what I imagine will be better AA and texture filtering, in addition to a HUD optimized for HD display.
It sure isn't going to be vying for the title of the best-looking Wii U game, but it's console Monster Hunter, it's online, and I need it inside of me.
I can't tell much from that one screen shot. The HUD is revised thou.
They did sent one

I think we owe that new guy an apology at least. Sven has teased us for too long but he should probably get one too.They did sent one
If Nintendo had something in place like Ad-hoc Party on the PS3, then it should be technically possible. I guess the ball would be in Nintendo's court to have something like that.

How awesome is 8-4? So awesome.
Can't wait for the glorious HD return of guild girl.

I believe in this now. I believed in MH3G because of Oichi and he's dropping hints again.
ONLINE FOR ALL
I'm fine with that. It's MH so that's enough to satisfy me as well. Hopefully, Capcom will consider putting MH 5 on Wii U as well, but this game's sales will be a bit tricky since 1.4 million copies of the game was sold on the 3DS in Japan. How many are going to want to double dip especially when they're going to need to buy a new home console for it? I fear overseas owners may not support it that much just because of the graphics.
You guys were hinting at this a few weeks ago on the podcast right?
Nintendo Network is cross-platform, so of course it's possible.
And considering Oichi's teasing, well... I wouldn't bet against it.

Damn... I have to get a Wii U now. No doubt about it.
I don't get it; how is that different from a HD port of a PSP game based on downgraded assets of a Wii game?

8-4 in charge of localisation again?

Man, now I'm torn between getting it on 3DS or WiiU. Maybe some incentive/bundle for double-dippers, pretty please Capcpom/Nintendo (whoever publishes)?
Nothing ps2-y about it. Modern game engine and effects for the 3DS version. Not HD console standards, sure, but 3DS game is gorgeous for what it is.
Capcom is the publisher, but I don't doubt for a second that Nintendo had a lot to do with getting the HD version made.

Yeah they will help them in some way, probably marketing. Just odd to bring them out close to each other. You have to be a pretty big fan to get both.
Does it have the same splitscreen local co-op as MH3 does? Of course, with the Wii U's setup, you could do honest-to-god actual co-op, provided they thought of doing that.
Because the pro controller is awesome

I will pick up the 3DS version, btw, but the news is great.

Sounds compelling.

Just saw the Chacha video. So, does the Wii U version allow you to go online with the 3DS version or something? Like an Ad-Hoc Party thing?

Same reason they invented a new fricking controller for Tri: it's what hardcore players are most familiar with.
Although, the GamePad will probably be really handy for online if it can be used as a keyboard.
It will not be a direct port if there is splitscreen co-op. Since they already added in chat system and reworked the HUD so I guess it's possible?

Cores, shaders and BIOS oh my!
What were you expecting, MonHun5 or Frontier 2 for a home console game to not be a port of another?
It's still the first sign of localization life for the series in ages and could bode well for its future as well.
