Out of curiosity, if I were to buy the Japanese version on the eshop, and then it's localised, would the game then be in English once the localisation is complete?

I'm asking because Disgaea 5C was in Japanese for a week when I bought it then it was all of a sudden in English, same with Kamiko.

I really hope for Infinite and MHW to do garbage numbers and Capcom to go into debt and get bought by anyone I do fucking care who it could even be Konami but right now I think it's even worse to expect anything good from Capcom than in late 7th gen when the only decent title they had was Dragon's Dogma.

RE7 is the worst performing RE in years.

Hell, it's close to being outsold by remasters of RE5/6, according to Capcoms report.

Capcom probably have like a dozen games already in development. You think two resident evil revelations games just magically happened overnight? No. Theyve been porting them since before the system even launched.

I legitimately just want RE4 on a handheld with Gyroscope aiming. After that, Capcom can drop the Switch for all I care.

They don't give a shit about monhunxx. All it is just a fucking cash in.

Capcom, and other third parties, are desperately trying to justify continuing to support Playstation and Xbox over Nintendo platforms.

Why anon? Did you buy Nintendo stocks lately?
>>
>>386019663
We've known for quite some time that there's some kind of weird agenda at work when it comes to these days.

Take Resident Evil Revelations. It was a huge success on 3DS, long time fans loved it and saw it was an improvement over the console games. It was a huge success.

What did Capcom do?

They promptly made the sequel a Playstation and Xbox exclusive and it bombed. Then they made RE7 for Xbox and Playstation, which also didn't do well.

It's interesting how these companies can have ONE game do poorly on Nintendo consoles and then try to justify that as being Nintendo's problem, when they are fully willing to release bomb after bomb on Playstation and Xbox.

>>
>>386019864
You're the one with a weird agenda against Capcom cause they won't suck your favorite company's dick.

Nothing stopping you from getting a PC or PS4 to play the games you're missing out on.

Every gen it's the same shit. Nintendo promises tons of 3rd party support. They get none. Nintendildos get buttmad and blame 3rd party devs coming up with all sorts of crazy conspiracy theories. When everyone knows you don't go to Nintendo for 3rd party games.

Except for the fact that I don't want those fucking consoles.

I'm not buying additional platforms for third party games. They're really not worth it.
>>
>>386019859
What are you even talking about? RER1 sold the same on the 3DS as it did on the PS3 alone.
Of course they'd make the next iteration multiplat. And they weren't gonna support the damn 3DS because they'd have to make the game look like shit to run on it.
It "bombed" because it was episodic.

And RE7 did fine. It just didn't meet Capcom's retarded expectations they set for each game like they're making call of duty.
>>
>>386020084
I have a PS4 retard. Fuck off with your console war shit.

>>
>>386020305

They still did.
>>
>>386020496
And then they made a PS Vita version that also ran like shit.
>>
>>386020496
And it also ran like complete shit at launch, especially on PC.
Regardless it'd take a lot of resources to pair it down to something the 3DS could run.

What about the OP?
>>
Capcom' stance on the Switch is the oddest out of all the 3rd parties since their games have history doing well on Nintendo handhelds. Even more so since they had input on the Switch's hardware itself getting Nintendo to increase RAM on it so that their engines can run on it.

Then for some reason they ignore the system with not just AAA games like RE7 MHW and MVCI (calling that game AAA is a bit of a stretch) but smaller titles that would absolutely make sense to put on the Switch like the Disney Afternoon Collection or the Mega Man Collection. It's like they projected that the Switch would underperform and that putting out a remaster of a HD remake of a 25 year old game at $40 in the hopes that it would sell like shit and use that to justify not supporting the Switch.
>>
>>386022232
>Personally I'm aiming for the online community that will live the longest
Statistically, that's either the PC or Xbox. Those two platforms have better retention rates than anything else.
>>
>>386022346
Across a broad spectrum of games and genres, sure. I would put money on this not being the case for Monster Hunter, however. People said the same thing about Tekken and now I have to play on PS4 to avoid playing against the same 10 people over and over.
>>
>>386022326
Monster Hunter historically sold well on Playstation handhelds. Monster Hunter jumped to 4 million sales popularity on Playstation handhelds. Capcom also help develop the Vita.

Playstation handheld. So it's a mystery why they didn't make the games on Vita 6 years ago.

But this time around they already said because they're going for power. So bad timing for Nintendo for not having a console, assuming it would even get a port. Because Vita was a handheld and it didn't get a port.
>>
>tfw you are glad that MHXX isn't coming out on the Switch in the US because you don't want to buy it, but you don't want it to release and sell poorly thus giving them a false assumption that we don't want traditional MH games on the Switch
I mean, I already played MHX, and while I would rather play it on the Switch, I would also rather get MH5. While I didn't mind the styles, I would love getting some MH3U style monsters.

>GameSpot: What made you decide to bring this particular installment to home consoles after the most recent ones have been on handhelds?

>Ryozo Tsujimoto: The series has been going for about 13 years now, so it's quite long in the tooth, but we felt it was a good time to start reevaluating the series and what we want to do with the next title. It was a good opportunity at this particular time because the current generation of technology is so powerful that it will allow us to express a much more dynamic, living world than we've ever been able to before. So when we had that concept in place, it seemed to make sense at this time to take advantage of home console hardware and bring Monster Hunter back to consoles. It's going to let us have a lot more dynamism and monster behavior, more realistic AI, and complex interactions between monsters. Everything, the timing, just seemed to be right for us.

And yet you can still get quick matches in a lot of their games by comparisons

>>386022824
Like I said. I would rather not risk it selling bad since it is just MHX ver 1.1. Why do you need a slight upgrade of a game that badly that you are willing to risk future releases not coming west?

Again, what should people say in this thread? What is "don't chimp out" in this context?

>>386022841
He's probably right if he's taking into consideration every game. I mean, I wouldn't be surprised to hear a popular online title like Call of Duty has more people playing on Xbox, it just goes with the territory. But the same could be said of Monster Hunter, where the community has history with Playstation. So it would undoubtedly live longer there. Maybe they have higher retention on average, but it doesn't mean that's true for every single title.

Basically, he's probably right but that doesn't really matter in the case of MonHun.

This actually makes sense. I mean if you aren't going to release a wide variety of games on your console then people don't have substitute goods. Its like if oranges don't exist, apples would have a higher "attachment" rate.

Fuck off, Nintenretards and Tribabbies. Do you realize that us MHBros will follow MH wherever platform it goes to?

Despite hating 3DS for its shitty hardware and having only Nintenkiddieshit rehashes, us MHBros bought one anyway just to play MH3U, MH4U, and MHGen. And we still love those games despite them being heavily gimped by the shitty hardware. And most of us have resigned to the fate of having to buy a Switch just to play another 240p PS2 tier MonHun game.

So when MHW is revealed to be on PS4/XBOne/PC (I'm getting it for my PC), we're actually happy to get a next gen MH on platforms with real hardwares. How about you Nintenretards and Tribabbies go saving up to buy a PS4/XBOne/PC instead of trying to force us to buy your fav company's wagglin' tablet and screaming like a retard?

I mean they just have no backbone, all they need to say is "We are working with Nintendo/Sony to make a new game for their systems" and be honest about it rather than bush and say things like "MH was ALWAYS on Sony platforms" or "The hardware was just what we wanted" because then you get rumors like how Sony bought them to make the game but not as a exclusive but rather just to shut Nintendo out and it makes everyone start doubting them since it makes no sense.

Whoever runs their PR department, and their localization department too, is a massive dunce.

The main issue is they have two games coming out right now. One game they are being upfront about and the other one they aren't. All that is doing is causing frustrations.

You may have seem me mention this before, but they really need to learn from the Dragon Quest team. That team has done everything right to date in regards to 11.
>>
>>386024707
So? MH3 was announced to be shifted from PS3 to the Wii before MHP2G came out. MH3G and MH4 were both announced 2 weeks after MHP3HD came out.

MH is yearly franchise. There's a new one coming out every fiscal year, not counting HD re-releases like the Switch one.
>>

None of that has anything to do with announcing intent to localize something.

I just wish they brought XX Switch over so I could waste time while waiting to play World on PC. No way I'm going to get it for PS4 (my friends are all going to play on PC) and the PC version will probably only come out in June at the earliest.

When Nintendo moneyhatted the series, it was obvious to anyone with a brain because they actually published MH games in certain regions and promoted them just as hard they would their own first-party IPs. Not to mention the limited edition hardware, crossovers, etc.

Nobody seemed to notice, let alone give a shit, so there was little need to address it. And this time around there's no hard evidence yet of a similar thing happening with Sony.

>Can't claim it flopped when it lacks a full release.
When companies do sales target for a certain time period, they only account for the market their products will release in. For example, MHXX was projected to sell 2 million in Japan before March 30th 2017. It didn't, and still not meeting the target after another 3 months extra.

I wonder if nips like Monster Hunter as much as Dragon Quest. The newest DQ has already sold almost 1 million on PS4, not counting digital sales. If nips like MH as much as DQ then World should do fine sales wise. Let's just hope it's good.

probably not as much, but DQ main titles are far and between. been a long fucking time we got one

also there is no question whether japs like MH or not, they do but mostly when if it is portable so they can hunt together. the 2 genres are different

High is good, low is bad. Capcom has Resident Evil, Monster Hunter, and Ace Attorney. Also Mega-Man and other series like Devil May Cry but they're basically dead. If Resident Evil does badly and Monster Hunter for some reason also does badly they would be in a lot of trouble. But other companies have gone bankrupt before because they made terrible decisions.
>>
>>386030592
Pretty grindy, bit it has a shitload of content. If I could have it on Vita or Switch I would be all over it again. My friends and I still meet up and love MonHun when it is the season for it. We will have to stay home or lug our PCs (hopefully not the PS4s) around to play together now...

Hey buddy? You don't own a business. I'm sure you don't because you're posting on /v/ at 11 in the morning or at like 4 PM in England, anywhere else can fuck off.

MHXX and MHW are both going to sell poorly.
XX because everyone in Japan that wanted XX already got i t on 3DS
MHW because console games don't sell well in Japan to start with, but on top of that MH is largely popular FOR the handheld element.

Confirmed bullshit by ome hack "journalist" who wanted a news piece.

Capcom just wants Activision and EA money and they have no idea how to do it because Japanese game design mentality is inherently less streamlined and too complicated for mass audiences and out of genre to what they're used (FPS). Even shit like Street Figther might as well be indie niche compared to shit like Cawadooty, Overwatch, Battlefield, Battlegrounds and other Assfaggots like LoL and Dota2.

Then they try to ape what they do through a Japanese lens and we end up with awkward shit that doesn't really fly. Inafune being a westaboo producer ideas guy that SOMEHOW got himself in a position where everyone listened to him certainly didn't help.

Infinite is the perfect example. Great throwback design of MvC2 yet it's completely tarnished by Marvel's paperthin budget and a bunch of retarded committee ideas that shit all over it like roster and DLC while having the mot embarrassing PR ever.

I'm just waiting for Itsuno's game and REmake 2 which is probably the shit I'm actually excited for. Not a Chris DLC for 7 is practically an urban myth too.

But the 3DS sold better than both, fostering a larger community. And the 3DS is more powerful than the PSP. The Vita would have been a fine choice, but both work, and the second screen is nice for putting the hud on.
>>
>>386032216
3DS was selling pretty badly and they had to do a price drop when both MH3G and MH4 were announced for it.
