Rumor: May’s Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate DLC to include new collaboration content
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Rumors | 6 Comments
Capcom is supporting Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate with free DLC each month. We’ve seen things like new quests, items, and more. DLC launches during the first Friday of every month, so another round of new content is expected on May 1.
This week’s GameStop ad may reveal some of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate’s May DLC. Pictures showing Palico equipment based on Mega Man and Blanka are in the circular, along with armor featuring Samus’ Varia Suit.
All of these collaboration items were announced in the past – it’s just a matter of when they’ll be available. Capcom previously released a Link-based equipment set, plus Super Mario Bros. and Sonic-based Palico equipment.
May 1 is just on the horizon, so it shouldn’t be long before we find out if this rumor holds any weight.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Fire Emblem If dev talks more about why it’s split into two versions
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 30 Comments
At least in Japan, Fire Emblem If will come in two releases. Nintendo will distribute White Kingdom and Black Kingdoms as two unique items.
Speaking about the dual releases of Fire Emblem If with 4Gamer, Nintendo producer Hitoshi Yamagami talked about how you’ll have a different impressions of the characters that appear in the game based on the side you choose.
He said:
I believe so; however, you’ll be plenty satisfied even just by playing one of the routes, so please play whichever one piques your interest. After that, if you get curious about what happens on the other route, give that a try. Once you learn about one route, the other one will become more profound.
