Capcom Looking into Other Hardware For Monster Hunter Frontier

Capcom's large scale online Monster Hunter game Monster Hunter Frontier has been limited to PC and Xbox 360 until now. That could at long last be changing, though.

How about you release the game state side Capcom.....??

[Hatsune-Miku]

All monster hunter games should pe ported to or be on the vita unless it requires specs of next gen systems

[PopRocks359]

Depends on where they sell best and there's no guarantee a port will sell well on a platform that's struggling.

If there was a Monster Hunter that was exclusive to Vita however, that would probably be very beneficial.

[fatstarr]

why would they port to a masheen that has nowhere near 5million base users world wide?

why not just make another psp or 3ds game for a quick million saller.

I agree, I cannot believe Capcom has not released this yet in NA. Don’t get me wrong i still play Monster Hunter Tri on the Wii. But this would really boost sales and subscriptions if this was released on Xbox 360.

Im pretty sure people would by a 360 just to play this game. With a MMO like this i do not see why Capcom would lose money on this specially releasing it in NA on PC, 360, and PS3. I think the consoles are more the capable of doing it.

Maybe we need to start a petition. then maybe that will get there attention on how many sales they will be looking at.

If someone starts or already has PM me the link Please so i can sign it.

Monster hunter is big in japan in the top 5 cult games there.

360 is a glop in japan
so they would never put a MH game on the 360 over the ps3 or wii in japan.

Monster hunter hasnt caught on big in America so for capcom to port it to the 360 here would be a big stab in the water.

[ShadowKingx]

Actually Fatstarr i don’t see why they cannot put it on all 3 platforms it would be a nice MMO to test out the consoles with and of course we know PC’s can already handle it.

But yeah its already on the 360 so it would be easier for them to bring to NA on 360 and PC then bring to a whole new console its not even on yet.

[Calm Down Sunshine]

Buy Dragons Dogma instead :)

(Not hating Monster Hunter, just giving an alternative.)

Vita:
"Ermm, Capcom? I'm here"

[Jreca]

If Vita is getting it, the platform will skyrocket. I really hope so.

[himdeel]

Crapcom hates money if they don't port or make a Monster Hunter game for the Vita.

[SamPao]

Capcom is stupid. justsaying, what they are doing with MH is a disgrace.

Bring it to the platform that made the game BIG!!! damn it...!!!

[raiden-49]

Capcom are goign to troll PSVita and PS3 owners by putting it on Wii U or something =/

[Freakazoid2012]

Wii U confirmed..

Vita.. Now that is funny. I am sure Capcom wants to spend millions putting it on a console with a user base of 2 million after nearly a year.

Wii U will have that many sold in the first 2 months..

Sorry fanboys disagree all you want but nothing you can say will change the fact that Vita is bombing and scaring off 3rd parties with every passing week

[majiebeast]

Yeah they really wanna put it on a console thats gonna be outdated in a year they would rather wait for ps4 or 720.

[Ck1x]

Well they put it on the Wii instead of PS3! Im not so sure these Japanese developers are looking forward to the high development costs that HD systems bring.

[omarzy]

Monster Hunter Tri is for Wii. Monster Hunter 3G and Monster Hunter 4 are on 3DS. They seem very happy with MH on Nintendo.

[PygmelionHunter]

Well, they did put MH Tri on the Wii and that console was outdated before it even came out, besides, have you seen MH Frontier? It looks on par if not worse than Tri...

[THESONYPS3]

Even though Wii U will sell more, doesn't mean its better for the game. I would much rather it on the portable, especially when the PS4 and Xbox720 come out and make it look like the wii again.

[dboyman]

MH for PS Vita please!

[DigitalAnalog]

Their biggest fanbase on the PSP and they neglect them willingfully. What the hell did SONY do to piss them off so much?

[Sithlord-Gamble]

Whos pissed?
I am part of the PSP fanbase, and i couldnt be more happier with my Vita.
The Vita is what the PSP shouldve been.

[HarvesterOSarow]

Capcom just picked Nintendo to milk first. Simple really, release an expansion and announce a new game for the 3DS. Get huge sales because nobody has had a new MH in awhile. Then announce Vita MH, sell 10 million, but only after MH3G and 4 sell 5 million a piece and are on the market for their respective time. It's about picking your target while keeping your real goal in mind. As for most companies, it's making a lot of money.

[Tito08]

Most of these cases it's Nintendo that approaches Capcom to offer them exclusive deals, similar to the exclusivity they had last gen regarding the Resident Evil series, I'm not surprised by that at all since both IPs have become very successful on PS devices, Capcom knows for a fact their game sales on Nintendo consoles would be less than on PS devices, but I guess Nintendo is giving Capcom a good amount of money to get some exclusive Resident Evil & Minster Hunter games!!!!

[Sithlord-Gamble]

PS Vita says Hello!

[WetN00dle69]

I highly agree!!
Frontier should release for PS Vita!

[Cryptcuzz]

Release every monster hunter for both ps3 and vita with cross play and cross buy and prepare to have the biggest earnings ever Capcom!!!

[PopRocks359]

Some of these comments are really weird to me. So it's bad if it's on a Nintendo platform but good if on Sony?

Here's a crazy idea... why not both?

[TheDivine]

Its already on 360 and PC so....maybe just release it in the US and Europe? The game is finished and its not a game that needs voice actors so translate the text, add some grunts and ughs and BLAMO $$$ MONEYBAGS $$$.

While your at it releasing finished games bring MH Tri-g to the states for my 3ds. Why not release a MASSIVE game that will sell well. All it takes is one translator and a month of work. Its rediculous honestly. Everyone i know with a 3ds would buy Tri-g and you think its not worth the investment. Your not making a new 50 million dollar game you can even release it solely on the eshop. Id def prefer a cartidge but id be happy just getting to play the damn thing.

I dont understand not dubbing games for other regions. Its basically all profit since the games done. Nonsense i tell you, nonsense.
