Capcom’s “Monster Hunter 3 (Tri) G” and “Monster Hunter 4”
(tentative title) are confirmed for release on the Nintendo 3DS™!Capcom Co., Ltd. is pleased to announce its plans to release “Monster Hunter 3 (Tri) G” and “Monster Hunter 4” (tentative title) for the Nintendo 3DS system.
The “Monster Hunter” series are hunting action games which take players on a hunt for huge monsters inside a world rich with nature. The games introduced a new kind of communication style, and created a “Monster Hunter craze” through cooperative play focused on hunting monsters with friends. Ever since the first game was released in 2004, our fan base has grown, and the “Monster Hunter” series has sold 18 million copies total.

This information comes from Nintendo of America’s latest press release…
“In honor of the 25th anniversary, Nintendo is offering a free classic game for a limited time. The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Anniversary Edition will be available to download between Sept. 28, 2011, and Feb. 20, 2012. Fans can download the Nintendo DSiWare™ version of the game using their Nintendo DSi™ or Nintendo DSi XL™ systems, or by accessing the Nintendo eShop with a Nintendo 3DS system (wireless broadband Internet access is required for download). The game allows up to four players who have downloaded the game to play cooperatively and has also been enhanced with a new single-player mode. Unlike the original, all multiplayer game play is handled wirelessly. Once players finish the main quest, they will unlock new stages and abilities to expand the game’s replay value.”
The wording in this press release makes it sound like the title will be completely gone once February 20th arrives. That kind of stinks… the least they could do is leave it up on DSiWare/the eShop and let fans purchase the game!
