Monster Hunter Ultimate Thread

I have never played a Monster Hunter before, so hopefully I can start out with this one and enjoy it.

People in my 3DS/Monster hunter Facebook Group have been giving away these codes like petty change though, but...it gets redeemed as fast as they post the codes..

You should try playing some of the older versions as well just to get the feel.

So I don't have a 3DS. I'm debating if I should get the MH4U 3DS bundle for 229, or just get the New 3DS XL + the limited edition MH4U (199+59). Hard times. Tough choice.

whichever your choices,you'll need extra dough because 3DS XL doesn't have an AC adapter so you'll need to buy it separately.
better ask again which one has included the AC Adapter along with the bundle.

but if i wasn't worried about which limited item should i get,i'll definitely go with the MH4U 3DS bundle.

Not worth getting the new 3DS really.

I might just try that. Thanks! Any specific one I should start with?

Freedom Unite to get the feel for the returning monsters, then 3 Ultimate for easy mode.

But...but the announcement date being moved up to less than a month away tho. I...I...I NEED IT!!!!

Don't go for the new 3DS just yet. Only real incentive on it is the fact that Xenoblade's port is exclusive to that version. Otherwise, regular works fine for all games on the 3DS right now.

annoying bug post....

It's only $30 difference. Besides, the way I see it, ultimately there will be more games for the New 3DS XL while being backwards compatible (not entirely sure on this but I believe it is) whereas the old 3DS XL won't be able to play the new games. I'm mighty upset that the Xenoblades port is strictly for the new 3DS. Though to be quite honest, owning a limited edition 3DS is a nice bonus, in and of itself.

And like someone mentioned, you will have to will have to add the cost of the charger since Nintendo believes everyone has one. I suppose that will make it $40 difference.

Unless you manage to find one in some Flea Market. It could just be $1-5. I believe that the charger hasn't changed since DSi.

Exactly why I want the new one... plus that extra nipple for easier hunting in MH4U.

Too bad the limited is sold out/preorders closed.

Okay to everyone who says that getting the new 3DS isn't worth it for that extra control if you want the new monster hunter it is worth since there are a lot of new movement mechanics in this game being able to control your camera while not using a touch pad is ideal. Not required but ideal.

I'd only agree to that if someone didn't have a 3DS before. I've been playing 3U for about ~150 hours and used the touch pad as if it was second nature. Because of that, I never found any problems playing the 4U demo like that.

EDIT: To your point though, I will agree that the second analog is quite ideal. Is it worth shelling out another $200 if you already have a 3DS XL? If you still have the original 3DS, maybe. If you have the XL, I don't think it's worth it.

Personally I have loved the DS line since launch a lot so part of it is that the new 3DS does have better hardware a better battery better 3D and there are now gonna be exclusives and this is looking much like the DSi so I would imagine this being a very early look into the new generation of Nintendo hardware

11 more fucking days. Bust a nut while waiting.

my body is so ready

not a demo but appearantly PeanutButterGamer got an early copy of it.

anyway,this is pretty much what we're gonna do at the beginning of the game and one of the 1st quest that we have to do for request related ones.
