Monster Hunter 4G [3DS] late 2014 release/ MH 4 Ultimate 2015

[jimtendo]

So says famitsu.
And praise be... Save data from MH4 will carry over. Not sure how much (in terms of weapons/ armour etc) but at least it's something.



And the announcement of MH 4 Ultimate - early 2015

[kryss]

Ah...Guess I should be working on 4 more then.

[VR46]

Wonder if the UK will get MH4 before 4G lands more importantly for 90% of us.

[kryss]

If Capcom had sense, they would bring 4G out at the same time everywhere.

[jimtendo]

Historically the west always get the 'G/ Ultimate' versions instead of the original (barring a few exceptions with Tri) and at least 8 or so months after the Japanese get their hands on the G versions.

So I hope you've got a lot to play until 2015 then.

[kryss]

I know I do. I've got 3 SRWs I've not even started yet...

[J0e Musashi]

Oh man. I've got to buy another LL now.

I felt like I barely scratched the surface with 4, given that my usual offline co-op gang are all on PAL machines. Great news that this is coming and all, but more than anything I hope that there's some news soon of a western version. Also, a WiiU version would be nice...

[jimtendo]

I hope that there's some news soon of a western version.

Early 2015.
Check updated 1st post with western announcement video.

[kryss]

NICE! Will probably skip the J-G then.

[fuse]

Great news - only worry for me now is whether I'll be able to play with UK chums on a US console.

I wonder how hard Nintendo are begging Capcom for a WiiU version.

[jimtendo]

I won be bothering with MH4 U, as for one, I got my save data to carry over, and the second issue is DLC. I just can't trust Capcom to bring everything over like the hash job they did with 3U.

RE: fuse

I presume it'll be like the wiiU version, where USA/ EU are joined, but JPN is seperate. You know, to keep the majority of those dirty gaijin out.

But who knows.

[fuse]

See, my issue is a little more complex than that as I was playing MH3U on a PAL WiiU with local chums on PAL 3DS systems. My 3DS systems are NTSC-J and NTSC-U though, and from everything I heard, I'd not be able to port my save from WiiU to either 3DS. I'm not even sure NTSC-U and PAL 3DS systems are compatible locally, either. I'd really like to avoid buying a third region of 3DS, but if anything's going to make me do it, it'll be MH4U.

My word! These games are coming out faster than Kryss can tell us he is having the sex!

[kryss]

Oi, I've not made any comments about that in weeks. I'm glad I can post at all with all the uni work I have.
