Capcom shoots down Monster Hunter 3 rumors once and for all
Posted on 15 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii | 1 Comment
Earlier this week, a rumor popped up that Monster Hunter 3 would release on other systems. A few days afterward, the official game website was update and dismissed the rumor. Now a Capcom statement has basically put the final dagger into any rumors that the game could release on other systems.
“Ok, seriously, a Chinese magazine scan? Believe what ever you would like guys.” – Christian Svensson, Corporate Officer/VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development
That pretty much speaks for itself right there! We can’t say for sure what will happen in the future, but for now, it looks as though Capcom has no intentions to release Monster Hunter 3 on any other system other than the Wii.
