Enterbrain has shared first week sales for Monster Hunter 3G, which was released this past Saturday (12/10)
The first 3DS entry in the Monster Hunter series sold 471,055 units in its first week. Enterbrain's one week tracking period goes from Monday to Sunday, so this figure represents just two days of sales.
3DS had its best week yet last week, selling 378,114 units. This figure covers the full week, from 12/5 to 12/11.
Thanks to this surge, the 3DS has now crossed the three million mark in Japanese sales. Its life to date total is 3,237,272 units.
Barroth has exhaust pipes or blow holes I guess.Capcom's ridiculous list of ridiculousness:
Step 1: Add exhaust pipes to horses
Step 2: Add exhaust pipes to dragons
I'm also somewhat not surprised that HKers got out a video of Quatrion first.
Where do you live? Moga village?The local courier is terrible! They can only redeliver my parcel after 2 working days! Seriously! >_<
I think that's the real name of the new dragon.What's that? The final boss? (assuming Quattrion wasn't it).

If a localization is on the cards, what's the most reasonable time for announcement and release?
I totally forgot how the PSP games and Tri were handled.
This...is definitely Tri difficulty. Holy shit. I went into my first Qurupeco fight expecting to totally assrape him like in P3, and that $%&# actually managed to beat me. I got him as far as limping and the clock was down to three minutes left and I couldn't finish him off. WTF?
The very first Qurupeco you fight summons goddamn Rathian, the two were practically inseparable.
RAGE
I'm comin' back for you tomorrow, you rainbow feathered piece of shit.
(I love this game.)

Had two dung bombs, used em both. Over the course of the hour he managed to summon Rathian like 6 times. I couldn't keep up.Protip: dungbomb

I really like those first 20 hours of a MH game where you are building your toolbox of bombs, traps and so on while gathering constantly. Its most RPGish to me then, before i get lost in the forest that is planning armor skills and gems.
Yeah no more easy handheld MH!This...is definitely Tri difficulty. Holy shit.

Can you skip right into the multiplayer quests by yourself like you could just play online and offline concurrently on Wii to help with the tedium of the single player early stages? Although since the difficulty is like Tri I guess you really need people to play with locally without online otherwise monsters will have way too much health to be fun in solo mode until you get geared up beyond their league
Hah, I laughed IRL with this postThis...is definitely Tri difficulty. Holy shit.

I am a Monster Hunter freak, but I have no 3DS.
I walk by store displays and shelves full of Tri G and I get that 'kid at Christmas' feeling of joy and anticipation...
Question: Should I spoil myself?
I love me some P3rd, but after putting 2-300hrs into that and the other PSP titles, I feel it's on its last legs. I'm jonesing for a new hunt.
The idea of fighting Caedus and other Tri monsters, and swimming battles on the move is appealing. Plus, I want to hear that music while wandering around the town again (currently no access to a Wii).
Or: Should I hold out?
I don't know a single one of my friends who has/wants a 3DS. I'm in a remote part of Japan; I'll be lucky if I can find some junior high school kids to hunt with. No online means I am stuck by myself, at least for a while.
20,000yen is a handsome bundle price, especially for that cool design, but I'm not sure if this is the system seller I was waiting for (considering my history with MH, it really should be...) Is MH4 set to come out for both 3DS and Vita? I don't think I can afford to own both next-gen handhelds.
Monster Hunters of GAF, please help me!
Get the bundle, show it to your friends and they'll want to get it!
this game bombed hard
If it does, it won't be for years after it comes out on the 3DS.Is MH4 set to come out for both 3DS and Vita? I don't think I can afford to own both next-gen handhelds.

Armchair something or other.
so the drop off will be huge next week, 150k territory?

I would certainly not complain if I had a 3DS. Things like SSFIV, RE: Mercenaries, Zelda, and all the new Mario stuff interest me greatly. I suppose if MH4 was a long way away (3DS or otherwise), this would be my only go-to.Well I don't know if I can recommend you the game and system (haven't played the game, don't know if you're interested in anything else on the system) but as for the question in bold, as of now, MH4 is 3DS exclusive.
I have at least one buddy who would definitely get pumped and probably blow his Hong Kong dollars the second he saw me getting blinded by 3D monsters. The problem is we live in different countries now, and it's much harder to arrange MH sessions. No opportunity for online (at least P3rd has Ad-Hoc Party) means I will almost exclusively be stuck on my own.Get the bundle, show it to your friends and they'll want to get it!
I finished the end-game monsters with a couple of dedicated hunter friends, and then we went our separate ways and none of us have touched it in quite a while. I'm sure if I fired it up today I would immediately get the bug again, and want to play nothing else over the Christmas period. I dunno. You never really 'stop' with Monster Hunter.well, here in lies the thought process which will go through the heads of a lot of MH'ers for MHTriG. Is Caedus + thatotherone , underwater fighting, 4 new subs, streetpass changes enough to get people to invest in a new machine and go back through some very similar content?
interested to know at what point did you stop with 3rdP ?
For me : i was buying it until the last minute - i have home life Monster Hunter pressure as it is, if i started playing 3G and it in any way took time away from 3rdP i'd be a dead man.

Someone with the game will have to answer all that. I just picked that stuff browsing here. Just responded cos Dc shouldn't make such confident posts of what's new for whatever audience when he doesn't actually know, or if he's gonna forget more than half the stuff.
