Capcom looking to bring Monster Hunter Frontier G outside of Japan
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 6 Comments
Capcom has interest in releasing Monster Hunter Frontier G outside of Japan.
Capcom’s Yoshinori Ono said during a recent developer interview published on the company’s website:
We do. The letter “G” in the title implies it’s compatible with a wide range of platforms, including PlayStation3, Wii U, Xbox 360, and PC. We’re also planning to extend this support to PlayStation Vita. The reason why we have increased our support for so many hardware platforms is because we have our sights set on distributing services for this game in the future outside Japan. We simply can’t release a game as it is, but need to adapt all the necessary services to the unique characteristics of each region. In preparation for that, we’ve broadened our scope and started launching individual titles across multiple hardware platforms.
Now, what does this mean exactly? Monster Hunter Frontier G could very well be heading into other regions of Asia. Naturally, we’re also hoping that the game is being considered for the west.

Capcom is planning to hire at least 100 new developers every year as part of reform initiative
Posted on 11 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in General Nintendo, News | 5 Comments
A message from Capcom CEO Kenzo Tsujimoto outlines some fairly ambitious plans for the company over the next five years, not the least of which is their plan to hire at least 100 new development staffers every year. The goal? To improve the strength of the team at Capcom and the quality of titles put out in order to build a stronger brand and make more money.
“Our next objective is to provide to as many people as possible a variety of products that take full advantage of Capcom’s vast amount of content,” he said, noting that certain games– Monster Hunter 4 in particular— performed excellently over the past year while others– Resident Evil 6 comes to mind– did not.
