In late 2007, Capcom announced that they have moved development Monster Hunter 3 from the Playstation 3 to the Nintendo Wii due to development costs. They recently commented that are leaving the door open for a possible Monster Hunter game the Playstation 3, however.

    I always figured a new version of Frontier would be on the PS3, and hopefully 360, with cross-console connection for online.

    Yeah, I expect a multiplatform title for 360 and PS3 to be announced within the year.

    They might as well do it. Or they might as well stick with the less risky, cost friendly PSP series WITHOUT ONLINE SUPPORT...this is going to come up everytime I comment on a Monster Hunter article.

        Well...yeah. there's obviously something wrong with the fact that they are totally capable of adding the most important feature NEEDED for a multiplayer oriented game...they just don't feel like putting it on.

    I dont give a *bleep* about the Wii version. Capcom give me a Monster Hunter with proper online for a CONSOLE!

    I know aggressive but I've played/ported every Monster Hunter on PSP & PS2 and now I am DESPERATE for online.

      Hear hear! I really couldn't give a crap about a Wii version myself. I can't see it selling as much as it should if it were on 360/PS3, Hell the sales would be probably DOUBLE that of the Wii's sales of it when it's released.

      Please Capcom, let us see Monster Hunter in PROPER NEXT GEN glory and not on the goddamn Wii ; ;

    I hope they do port it. But I reckon chances are it'd be Japan only. Like Monster Hunter 2 was for PS2.
