Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate footage and screens captured

Joystiq writes:

"If you're at New York Comic-Con this week, you can try out Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on Wii U at Capcom's booth. Even if you're nowhere near New York, you can see what it looks like in this new media. It looks ... a lot like a port of a Wii game."

I can barely wait until this game arrives!

Neonridr4208d ago

bring on the inevitable "The graphics look crappy" comment, followed by the "This is not a game built from the ground up for the Wii U, it's a 3DS game ported over with higher resolution textures"..

Cyb3r4208d ago

You just stopped me from posting the inevitable when I read that it is a port

Looking good. Was originally gonna skip this and just buy MH4 for 3DS. But I may have to reconsider, if I decide to buy a Wii U ofcourse

I've loved Monster Hunter since the PS2 days...& felt it was perfect for the PSP. I am very disappointed at Capcom for taking one of my favorite franchises & putting it on consoles I can't see myself investing in just for MH & Zelda!

This game & the 4th title coming up should be on the PSVita & PS3!! PC would be a dream (Frontier doesn't cut it), definitely since I'm mainly a PC gamer, but I can look past that.

Sadly, I won't be able to play MH until one of the above happens!

ThanatosDMC4207d ago

Yeah, im surprised they wont port it over to the other consoles.

Much of tri was "ported" to the psp in MHP3RD. This game included all the weapons absent from tri, more new monsters and a different village with a separate story, while lacking underwater combat. THIS game was then ported to the PS3 with a slight graphic upgrade.

So, why haven't you heard of them then? Japan only, due to contentions between Sony and capcom over changes Sony allegedly demanded with no support given and no leeway.

This game is the 3ds/wiiu upgrade of tri, with added p3rd content and all weapons available(AND underwater combat) This is made possible because of Nintendo's support of the franchise over seas, publishing the original tri and delivering the online servers for wiiu tri Ultimate.

The franchise is now mainly a Nintendo franchise because Nintendo made amicable deals and fostered a strong relationship with capcom, while Sony deliberately or not shrugged them off.

If they're not important enough to be held on their own official storefront then they're not important enough to give your money to Nintendo.

Buy these, physically, used or simply emulate them.

This article comes off as nothing more than advertising games that Nintendo, themselves, don't care to offer you... buy now!

Wait hang on where all the outrage? I swear when Sony tried to do this with PS3 last year. There was outrage from all corners of the gaming universe.

Why does no one care Nintendo is doing it?

MadLad785d ago (Edited 785d ago )

There has been.
A lot of it.

Simply type in "3DS" in Google and tell me what you see.

ocelot07784d ago

Oh I have a fair few websites reporting on it. But where is the outcry on here? I remember their was 2-3 approved top voted articles when Sony announced they where closing the PS3 store. All slating them and not caring about customers.

I should of worded it better. Where is all the outrage on n4g?

MadLad784d ago (Edited 784d ago )

N4G is a fanboy site, mainly frequented by only Sony.
Microsoft is their direct competition, so you'll typically only see articles that are made to rile up those fanbases.

Nintendo does it's own thing, so they're rarely brought up, aside from their fans. The most you get is the same typical two or three posters claiming Nintendo is only for infants.

If you come to N4G for educated discourse and reasonable discussion, this isn't the place. Sad as it is.

pietro1212784d ago

It's lame that it is shutting down. Now I feel rushed buying all the rpgs I missed out on the system.

You guys know that even archive.org has 3DS roms, and all other console roms. I'm downloading 846GB of 3DS roms and will add the best games to my soon to be soft modded New 3DS 😁. Might as well throw in DS and other emulators in there to. Guys this would be the best way to play and enjoy the 3DS. Just need to buy a bigger micro SD card and format it to FAT32, which you can if it's even 256GB or larger there are ways.

XxINFERNUSxX784d ago

This should help if you want to soft mod it excellent guide and up to the latest and probably last 3DS firmware update: https://www.youtube.com/wat...
