Guitar Heroes Across Europe Will “Ride the Lightning” in May
Monday 11th May/… In celebration of the upcoming release of Guitar Hero® Metallica® in Europe, Activision Publishing, Inc.

Capcom has teased gamers and has provided hints that Monster Hunter 3 would be brought outside of Japan, but has never said anything concrete…Until now. The company confirmed in their recent financial results that the game will be localized for overseas territories. Monster Hunter 3 is expected to release in FY 2009, which means that the game could be scheduled anytime between April 2009 to April 2010.

In other Capcom news, there are plans to “introduce versions of major game series for the extremely popular Wii” and that nine titles will launch within this fiscal year. Thus far, we know about Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles, Spyborgs, Monster Hunter 3, Resident Evil Archives, Resident Evil Zero Archives, and Monster Hunter G…So that leaves some room for speculation as to what other secrets Capcom has in store.

Nintendo has already iterated a few times over that The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks will release this year. But according to games industry experts, the market’s view on Nintendo could be influenced by a new Zelda title for Wii. Analysts believe that the system is in dire need of “dazzling” new titles. KBC Securities Hiroshi Kamide says that there is a great focus on Zelda for Wii due to Nintendo’s upcoming titles, which are a bit on the weak side. If there was a chance that Zelda Wii could release by Christmas, Nintendo’s console could regain momentum in the market.
