Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate 1

For folks who can’t wait for the end(ish) of March to get their hands on Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate for the Wii U, fear not! Capcom is planning to release a demo for the game on the 21st of February and, as far as I can tell, this is for Europe and North America, so location shouldn’t be an issue.

  • DrunkEnShadow

    I am going to play this so hard. In fact, I am gonna keep hunting that demo monster(s) again and again and again and again…

    • Alex_Atkin_UK

      That depends on if they put a really low limit on the number of times you can play the demo.

      This is one game I can see problems with people using up the demo limit with others in the househeld never getting to try it.

    • Acephoenix

      Too bad for them :/ I might want to set up a camera if that is the case so I can just pretend like I am playing the demo over and over if there really is a limit. Either that, or I am going to keep clicking the download button over and over until the system finally glitches and I get to play again.

    • Aprosey

      Does that work?

    • Acephoenix

      Emphasis on *glitch*. No, it doesn’t, but I’ve been known to break the laws of physics before. How do you think I created the internet? I broke laws, man, lawwwwwwssssss. I don’t think you realize just how I break laws. You know, sometimes, I gotta work especially hard for this kinda thing. Like, sometimes, there will be problems, man, and I just gotta deal with em. You know how I deal with em? I break em. I break all my problems before they even get a CHANCE to be laws. Somehow I believe there could be some poetic structure to this by connecting the reality of overcoming adversity (overused word, by the way) despite concrete odds, but I digress. It’s all about knowing what you want, and breaking it. You break what you want and then you discover what you REALLY want is nothing you wanted at all. After that, laws don’t even matter.

      Peace.

      or you can just remove it from the memory and re-download it again….

    • Omarsonic9

      On 3DS you can re-play the demo without wasting your demo limits.
      Just don’t exit the freakin game :D

    • Omarsonic9

      Or he can keep playing the game without exiting it!!
      XD

  • Alex_Atkin_UK

    Very glad there will be a demo of this as I am not sure if its my kind of game or not, as I didn’t find the PSP Monster Hunter game I tried very interesting.

  • Hybrilynx

    6 days after my birthday.

  • Bewoulf2000

    Well this will be the thing to decide if I get the game or not. Everyone on this blog raves this game, and I was gonna proably buy it. But the demo will be the decider on this game. But I’m sure it will be good, almost no doubt.

  • Revolution5268

    YES YES Dreams do come true.

  • Omarsonic9

    I better get a Wii U then.

  • Bewoulf2000

    I don’t know why, but the picture gives me the feeling of being in Skyloft.

  • Ninpalk

    Just so you guys know a Nintendo direct dedicated to Wii U will be today at 6 AM PST (8 AM CST, 9 AM EST) Today, January 23rd. The big news IGN said was coming is now coming to us.

      My body is ready……..

    • teenchampionsam

      Yeah, ive been using mynintendonews recently, there’s been tons of amazing news and david hasnt posted any. It’s just kinda disapointing, mabey he’s sick or something?

  • InterTriplete

    Great!

  • Marty
    • Iyxxl

      Well, it’s epic that Wind Waker(spell check tells me this isn’t a word…) is coming to the Wii U, because I never got a chance to play it… >_>
      But, I’m more excited about that Monolith Soft game and that crossover. :T

    • Marty

      Well wind waker places #2 in the series for me thus far, so i’d say give it a shot. But I still have to pick up xenoblade before I can say anything more than “looks cool ” about Monolith’s new title.

    • Iyxxl

      Well, if you have a lot of time and love RPGs, then I’m sure you’ll like(or love…?) it.

    • Marty

      hopefully, I here it’s one boss jrpg.

    • Iyxxl

      Well, along with the 100+ hour story, there’s the AGONIZINGLY long side quest quests(okay, maybe I exaggerated >_>), and a TON of places to explore.

    • Hybrilynx

      omg not zelda again, throws up. and to be completely serious, the gamecube wind waker looks way better then the wii u remake. if anything should be in a hd remake, it would be only metroid prime.

    • Marty

      that because it’s still a fucking BETA. You know INCOMPLETE?! Besides no ones telling you to play it,and gc copys of wind waker are far to overpriced these days.

    • Hybrilynx

      and the wii u version will cost twice as much as the overpriced gamecube ones.

    • Marty

      dude most places win waker is 40$, wwhd will be 60$. Whats with your logic?

    • Marty

      and retro is a bit pre-ocupied at the moment to our knowledge if you really can’t live without a prime style metroid for a while,no one is stopping you from 100%ing prime 1-3 for fun. just let retro work on that secret project.

    • Acephoenix

      You didn’t see that video explaining why Metroid games take so long to come out, did you? It’s not like Nintendo is trying to hold back on fans or anything. There is a legitimate GOOD reason why Metroid takes a astronomical amount of time to develop, and after how Other M went… I wouldn’t get your hopes up for another one so soon.

  • wuth

    IS David gone? there’ been tons more news

  • Tylos
  • Peach

    David must be sleeping right now…Wake up, Davie!

  • Gone
