      Capcom better suck some EA dick and get those MOH:H2 Servers. They are great, and you can always connect.

    Im still trying to figure out why capcom would want to take the game to the wii.I just can't see how taking it off the ps3 can make it a better game. Ya the wii has a bigger audience but it just seems to me alot of what monster hunter fans expect can't really be done on the wii. but oh well we'll have to see. i am stoked non the less. itll give me a reason to finally dust off the wii and put sometihing in it that isn't crapware.

      The reason they gave was the lower development costs.

    Thank the gaming Gods that we won't have to use the Wii-mote and Nunchuck. I was dreading that. I can't wait now. Awesome that they saw sense.
