No friend codes for Monster Hunter 3 in the US

Like its Japanese release, Monster Hunter 3 will not use the dreaded friend codes when it arrives in the states next year. Capcom’s Community Specialist Shawn Baxter confirmed the news earlier today, although he did not say if there will be any fees involved. In Japan, players must pay weekly or monthly in order to connect online. It is also undecided at this point if the title will  be utilizing WiiSpeak.
