Over the past free days I have spotted at least 10 people claim they are.

I'm tempted, but I've never played the series! It looks like a game I would love.

I'm really glad to see this game get more Wii U users out there. Hopefully this will mean well for the MH series.
If you're interested, do a lot of research. Or if you know someone with a Wii and Tri, give that game a shot. See if you really like it.
I'm not sure if it's worth it to buy a console for a game you might not like. Unless there are other games for the Wii U you are interested in.

Or preload that I can run at midnight.
Also thanks for the Gears mention. Going to head to GS after class to place my pre order. Free guide, I guess.
Also, why didnt NA get the PS3 MH? I thought the games always did well over here.
Releasing 9 am pst as it is not published by Nintendo.

You just ruined my day. Tell me what you know. I was expecting to download this at 12:01 EST.

iPhone/iPad ftw!
Got this bookmarked on my iPod touch already. Its a bit sluggish there, since its java heavy, but it works nonetheless.

IMO, watch some videos of skilled players.

There should be since there are Bullfango in the game.

When I looked at the event quests before they took them down, there was a bullfango one.
Just got back from Gamestop, gonna pick up my Wii U copy at midnight I originally had the deal on amazon set but my delivery date got messed up due to some prime membership issues. I can't wait, when I get out of my late class tonight I'm just going to be stalking the store

ICEMANnoob on youtube. He has a million videos about monster hunter, many of which are guides for new players. Check out the videos for ultimate and the ones for Portable 3rd HD, since this game is an expansion on that mostly.

Oh, I'll be up at 6am EST anyway. That's OK I guess. Looks like I won't be totally useless at work tomorrow after all.

OMG! This site will be very useful, thanks for sharing. *bookmarks*
Offline, previous versions always had one in the menu.
Even if this one doesn't you could just hit the home button.
You sound about the way I did this time yesterday. The eShop release comes at noon EST, not midnight. By going digital I'm now basically missing the first day of play, as I won't even be able to start downloading the game until after work at like 4:30. I guess I'll ba able to start playing after dinner...? :/
Day 1 for me will basically be getting up uo the point where I can make sure I'm not in a cursed charm table, and that's about it. Wednesday is the real blowout for me.

Everyone pronounces it Devil Joe but in my head I like to call him Devil J. Ho.

The guy on the eurogamer stream read it off of a comment, I think he managed a silent J somehow. I'll have to hunt that down again.
His japanese name is actually Evil Joe. More or less. I always loved it because it sounds like something that locals of a backwater fishing village would call a big ole 'gator.
yep. I've owned a Wii U and no games for it. The no games part will change tomorrow.
Nice, was looking for one of those types of sites updated for Ultimate. Use to play around with one of those over my lunch breaks at work for Tri and then would go home and know who to start farming to make my ultra cool mixed sets.
My Mama says that deviljho are ornery because they got all them teeth and no toothbrush.

I feel ya Doorman. I won't be able to start downloading the games until 6pm tomorrow
. I put money on both the eshops for the game so I won't be picking up physical copies instead. At least the 3DS version should download quickly so I can get my character started. Hopefully I'll be able to start playing online late Tuesday night. If not I guess I'll have to wait until Wednesday night Bookmarked!

I did I beat that jerk Plesioth!
I know I was cutting in close on time again (my guess was 2 minutes left on clock)
So glad I was able to beat him before I get the game tomorrow. I had to stick on him really good for most of the battle. Also in sure the tip about shocking him and using bombs helped to.

Haha, I was constantly talking about that site whenever someone asks any good guides in the announcement thread. It is a really good site and we can potentially share sets with each other.
There is also a PC application just like this made by the same guy.

I must have had less than 10 seconds when I got him. The "1 minute left" ticker came up, and there was a long, long minute before he went down. I was going to rage if I ran out of time since he was limping.
Went to Target for the b2g1 free sale. They had 3 copies of Ultimate. But for Wii U. Which I can't afford until the summer. So I'm bummed.
Luckily, Amazon usually delivers next day since I'm in NYC, but I did only place my order last Thursday. If I don't get a "shipped" email tonight I'm going Gamestop hunting as well.
Torches were cool because you could keep them out while using SnS.
On a more serious note, I don't remember what exactly it did for Gigginox. For Giggis and Bhnabras it scared them away so you could mine in caves and gather in swaps in relative peace.
Still, I can't tell you how cool it felt doing dark cave fights against Gigginox, using an SnS with the torch lighting the path, and sticking to the monster well enough to be a beacon to my fellow hunters. Completely unnecessary but fun. And thinking about it some more, having the torch out may have made Gigginox focus on you more (primary heat source), which would explain why I had to use the shield so much at times.

I'm not going to worry about that; it would probably depress me. Low Wii U numbers mean low software numbers.
Yes sir.
Yup.

Yeah that happened to me last time I tried the fight. Capcom next time needs to make the time limit 30. That gives you enough wiggle room to fight the monster I think.
Now you're going to have to beat him again and again and again
At least now(or tomorrow) we will be able to bring friends though. 50 minute time limit is going to be such a breath of fresh air as well. 20 minutes is such a nerve bender.

You have a 20 minute limit to kill the monster instead of the normal 45 minutes.
Ya, I'm still not sure why they do that but it was like that for the Tri demo as well.
It's not so bad for the easy fight, but for pleso it can be the reason for pass or fail depending on how often he zone switches on you. It just takes so long to swim back and forth.
You mean 50 minutes.
