I didn't get a 9th item in my haul. Wtf?
Not everyone does. I didn't get a 9th item in both my hauls.

I loaded it in and I got all x's. 
I decided to go for it back on the Wii because of the name alone, the images that name conjured. Best gaming decision.
Of course then before the game arrived I read and watched a lot and was prepared for its mechanics, which helped me quickly get into the actual game as well.
ah well shit. I'd do that but I got to sleep. Oh well will blindly pick up anyway.

You entered in something that the system didnt recognize.
No worries. First part of the game is easy. If you get frustrated with some fight then you can check for tips.
I did the Charm Table trick and it seems like I got Table 10 my first try.
On my four fishing expeditions I had T10 listed as "O", and on my third/fourth it was the only one viable [the rest were all "X"]. I'm so happy that I don't have to [seemingly] restart, although honestly, as long as I didn't get one of the Cursed ones, I probably wouldn't anyway.
Even still, I'm glad to see that my luck paid off.

I can't even get it to work.
This table thing has completely ruined my enjoyment of the game for now. It wouldn't be so bad if cursed tables weren't a thing, I could just move on. But knowing this could fuck up my end game has me so pissed off it's unreal.
This really fucks with my OCD.

Really glad I'm a noob then, that I don't even know what this means.

Does changing the date for this charm business screw with your activity log at all? (3DS)
Post your fishing haul(s) and someone will do it

We're done.
you didn't record a video of it by any chance?
No. I could, though. I'll do a video tomorrow (later today I guess). I needed an excuse to reroll my appearance anyway.
The clock starts ticking not at the first confirmation screen, but only as soon as you see the "Clock Settings Changed Successfully" screen or whatever. You can sit at the first confirmation screen as long as you like, it starts only when it states that the clock was actually changed.
Also, anyone trying for a certain table be sure to disable Wi-Fi. You should delete all wi-fi settings BEFORE you change the clock.
See above.
Oops. I didn't disable Wi-Fi, but I'm T10 master race.
In any case, instead of guessing when the Wii U/3DS starts the clock at 0 seconds, simply start the stopwatch at the next minute's passing. You can even view the time in the Home menu while the game is suspended. Worked like a "charm." (Pun totally intended.)

So, this will be my first MH. I've been playing the demo, and been liking SnS and hammer. Was planning on going for one of those. However, yesterday I tried the switch axe and I LOVE it! I even took out Plesioth with about 4 min left. Lagombi only takes about 5 min to kill.
Is the Switch Axe overpowered in the demo? Or is it just an awesome weapon?

I can turn Wifi back on and exit the game once I've started a New Game with my potential table, right? Or do I need to get to fishing with Wifi off to set my table in?
FYI - those obsessing over tables...I spent a few hours looking them over last night. As long as you don't get a cursed table or T2, you're fine. Yes, T10 is the Blademaster table and T9 is the Gunner table, but not having one of those will likely not do much to you endgame. It may mean the difference in a few percent crit chance or a minor damage percent difference, but when you're farming the mega monsters, your skill greatly outweighs the difference between. And I am pretty sure the really important charms (handicraft, damage, expert, free element, etc) are available in some degree on all tables.

that would be godsend... and give you clicks.

Finally downloaded and installed. Can't wait to play tonight. My first Monster Hunter!
Same here, preordered a long time ago on German Amazon, and no change to my order status so far.
I buffed the fishing trip with a fish finder. Sent them to the Moga Coast and they returned with seven fish.
The tool confirmed table 5. And since I'm an SA user, I'm pretty happy!

Is it just me, or have the smaller monsters AI been dumbed the fuck down? They seem really stupid, and I mean a lot more stupid than tri-

I don't know about Tri,but when crouching,Giggis don't attack unless you stand up.

Re: Charm Table timing
This. I haven't had the time to confirm mine yet, but you can use the home menu to gauge exactly what time it is. The colon in the clock will pulse every second, and the best time to tell how well your stopwatch is synced up is to watch exactly when the Home menu clock ticks over to a new minute. If you're off, you can adjust accordingly, just give yourself enough time to do so.
yeah the whole book is in japanese, but features many useful pictures (monster hit zones, maps, every weapon, armor etc. ) also i really like the item compendium,
it's all about where to get the item, how high is the chance to get it and much more! while i still have a day to learn japanese before Ultimate takes over my life,
this bible will be used more like a complement to the english guidebook from brady.
... tell me 'bout it... I'm tired of games these days launching incomplete.
I've started up a character in both games. Started one at home on the Wii-U, the transfer app never showed up so I farmed 5 hours as a new hunter with my cousin. the Wii-U/3DS local multiplayer is awesome though!
I'm just going to keep this extra character as a guest for teaching new people how to play this game.
I can't believe how smooth they got this game running on both WiiU and 3DS, about time MH got up into the 40-60fps range. I haven't seen anything choppy but the smooth framerate is very welcome for this type of game. Especially a 3d game, 3d at a low framerate is just not fun for anybody.
The text on the 3DS version can get kinda gross, but there's a few focused sweet spots that clear it all up.

Anyone in Europe already got the game? Thinking about checking out some stores in the afternoon and see if they already have it.
I take back what I said about G. Baggi earlier, G. Wroggi is worse.
Well too late for me now lol.

I saw a video of Great Wroggi for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and he looks like he's hopped up on cocaine and speed with all the hip checks he can pull off in a short time span.
That's what I figured.
