Alright, system transfer done and MH4U is downloading. It took me a while to figure out the screws on the back don't come out completely 
. I also messed up my screen protector on the big screen because the instructions were wrong... Guess I'll just peel it off, the touch screen is the one that gets scratched the easiest anyway.

Where is that damn UPS guy? Got my n3ds all set up and I'm itching to play some MH4.
Ye, there are going to be a ton os new players so you will have to slog through it untill you get a certain level that people actually know what they are doing. I was afraid of this.
It is great that there are a bunch of new players but MH is not new player friendly.

There's a touchscreen keyboard in the online lobby, but you can only use preset messages during hunts.

amazon reset my address when I updated my order and sent it to my parents' house instead of my apartment.

Yeah, it's hard to get too mad at them (except the quitters). It'd be nice if people saved online til they had mastered the basic techniques though.
Don't believe that's possible. Only physical->digital as far as I am aware. Best to wait or sell off the game carts when they arrive if you stick to digital.

The collector's edition of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is back in stock on Gamestop if anyone still wants one.

You can have them chill at your house instead of coming with you.

Thanks.
Just picked up my bundle
Now I first have to do a system transfer and redownload the game D:
How does this work with the special consoles that have the game pre-installed? Do you have a code to apply to your account so that you can redownload the game..?
I only ask because I'm (hopefully) going to be doing the same thing later on today.

So long as you don;t create a new Nintendo ID before doing the system transfer the game will become part of your account. At that point just go to the game on the eshop and download it free of charge.
Alright, I wanted to get clarification on the transfer process from an old 3DS to the MH edition of the new 3DS, since I'm super worried about losing the game. If I understand correctly, as long as I don't create an account on the new 3DS, I should be able to redownload the game on there after I transfer from my old 3DS? Like, I would just follow the normal process to transfer and then I'd be able to redownload MH4?
Edit: Nevermind, I guess the answer is right above me!

Doesn't the system transfer overwrite the pre-installed game, though?
The twist is that both of your parents are into Monster Hunter and confuse it for a gift.
it just erases the game, but the license is transfered to the first account logged in the 3DS, in that case, the transfered NNID

all this talk about how good the combat is, all the weapons & monsters, the online play, and noone mentions you get a lil pet pig in your room you can dress up as a cowboy and pet? keeping the best stuff a secret eh
Playing with new players who aren't so good isn't so bad when you're still new yourself. It could even be great fun back in the Tri days when it seemed so many were new to the series. I plan to play with GAF in time once we're all G rank but I will be pugging it up, for good and bad, until then.

Are there any differences performance/loading time-wise between the digital and physical versions?

this is what truly bothers me.. If I have the digital game, why I cannot have the free theme?

You got a nice statue and a nice collector's edition, what's the problem?
I actually understand the problem.
Well, now that I have the game in my hands Im a little afraid of it. Its going to be too big for me? Will it be capable of engage me? Not sure... but I will try it. I need to read good tutorials and guides for beginners. Im always afraid of making things wrong in the beginning... should I choose this weapon? Shoul I make this thing.. Not easy, no.

If it's the same as previous games, in terms of load times there isn't really a difference. Save times are massively improved on the digital version compared to physical.
Here's a video showing the differences (not on MH4U though): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CXup1IT6PcY
*Edit*
Don't worry too much about "making the wrong thing" in the beginning. For starters, they give you every basic weapon to start. Just experiment with each of them a bit until you find one which clicks. Be sure to use the weapon guide if you need help understanding how to use it, or its combos. Plus, if you decide you want something else, it's all about just getting the materials for it, so you're never truly "locked in" to something and have it be unable to change. You can make whatever you want, whenever you want, and many times there's no singular choice for something. A sweet weapon you've been using for 10 hours may suddenly be super ineffective on a new monster, forcing you to make something new which is powerful against it. That's just the game.

Question: does it run @ 60 FPS on the regular 3DS XL with 3D on?
Any difference in performance or IQ with 3D off?

The face of somebody who does not give a fuck. I'll probably use that one.
I'm probably an idiot for asking this again, but I'm paranoid about it.
I'm getting a MH n3ds.
I'm assuming I login with my old NNID for the new unit, then do the transfer from my old 3ds.
Is that right? The previous instructions say not to use a new ID, but I was confused whether this is saying to not connect any NNID at all (including my old one).
