Most people outside of japan don't know much about about a series of games called Monster Hunter. In this series, you are playing the role of an amateur hunter, who's trying to move his or her way up in rank. The newest announcement by Capcom said it will be coming out on Wii. It was scheduled to come out on the PS3 at first, but because of development costs, Capcom decided to switch it to the Wii. Here are some of the reactions the community the has had with this announcement so far.

Graphics do not make a game, GAMEPLAY DOES. Something PS3 fan boys are forgetting. Although i have to admit, unless Capcom REALLY master the Wii mote, then this will suck major balls. Only Nintendo have been able to make motion sensing controls work well like Metroid Prime 3 for example. Hope this works well, and i can see why Capcom wouldn't put a high budget game like this on a console that isn't selling to well compared to the rest of the market. Why spend that much money on something you aren't guaranteed to make a profit from. - FallenAngelXBL

Did you play Super Smash Bro Brawl online on the Wii? It sucked major BALLS and it was even Nintendo's servers. Timed out matches, lag to hell, and connection problems all across the board.

If this does become a wii exclusive, kiss online play goodbye with overseas player, hell goodbye to you and your neighbor playing! - ForlornHope

Dude this sucks, it means its gonna have worse graphics then the Playstation version! They could have really taken it far with the scale of everything on the PS3 and the graphical/processing power there not even really gonna be able to use the Wiimote that effectively in the game really....

It also means an unreliable and pretty crappy Wifi experience with its rubbish friends list system, and no HD support

Oh an just to clarify in case "xarianuniverse" or anyone else says something, i do actually have a wii and a ps3 so its not like im being biased towards nintendo and FYI my 360 is my favorite console out of the 3

      I wouldn't mind the chance to play this game, as long as the gameplay is good and story as well. I have heard a lot of good things about the series

    I assume Capcom will use it's own servers for Wi-fi play so that pretty much ex's the Internet Complaint. I'm also sure that Capcom is busting their balls to make Motion Sensing Work. That ex's out the Control Problems Complaint.

    I'm 100% Sure that Capcom knows what they have to do to make this game succeed on the Wii, so I'm not worried, I'm just waiting.

    I'm not worried at all. I should pick up the PsP games.

    And for the 100th time, there are no Nintendo servers for Brawl. It is entirely based off our connections. (Which clearly was a big mistake)

    I have big expectations for this game. I'm hoping it's good as I will have access to a Wii very soon but I won't some better games than just Wii sports.

    Wii has the largest fanbase in Japan, so it would make more sense to release one of Japans top franchises on Wii.
