Capcom still says it has no plans for Monster Hunter Tri G localization
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
There’s still no news on the Monster Hunter Tri G localization front. Capcom continues to say that there are no plans to bring the game to the US, but it would be possible.
Here’s the latest, as tweeted by analyst Daniel Gibson at Macquarie Capital Securities (Japan) Limited:
“MH 3G in USA – any time I ask Capcom, its the same answer…no plans but possible, would think now with MH 4 coming ‘spring 2013’ it helps”
I’m not even sure when Capcom could announce Monster Hunter Tri G for the US. If I’m remembering correctly, the original Wii game was confirmed for North America just a couple of days after launching in Japan. It ended up shipping a few months later. As we know, the same situation didn’t occur with Tri G.

More E.X. Troopers shots

There are two sets of images here, both of which show new sections from E.X. Troopers. The second set indicates that the footage shown at Capcom Summer Jam a few days ago was taken from the PlayStation 3 version of the game. We expect the 3DS edition to look very similar.

Wii U and 3DS will have a unified eShop account system
Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 0 comments
This is something that Nintendo has hinted at previously, and most had assumed that something like this would be implemented.
Anyway, the point here is that a customer service representative has “confirmed” (can a rep actually confirm things?) that the Wii U and 3DS will share the same account system through the eShop. The compatibility wasn’t given an exact date for the 3DS, but unified accounts will be ready out of the box for Wii U.
A few other tidbits were shared by the same representative. As many of you know, Nintendo can keep your eShop account in tact if it’s damaged. It can also be transferred in the event that the system is stolen. Finally, there is “nothing to announce regarding Latin American availability” for digital downloads on the eShop.
