Kotaku has posted a interesting image off a Chinese bulletin board. It looks like Monster Hunter on the Vita, but as they suggest its not clear if this is Monster Hunter, Hunter Blade, or just a hoax..
So lets take this with a grain of salt.
To me it looks like Hunter Blade on a pc, and then they loaded the screen shot full screen on the Vita.. But we can always hope for it being real.
The image of the Character in the top right screams Hunter Blade.
It also has fraps.com in the top center of the screen, that means its running DirectX and was captured on a PC. If you compare the images below, you can see that someone photo shopped the fraps.com out of the image on the Vita. Same place same character diff health? I don’t think so.

Mine too!!
yeah heard about that a while back but I didnt post it here because they found it to be ..possibly …fake..
some say it isnt fake that the DEV kit for the vita goes through the computer and could be recorded with fraps…who knows..any news is good news at this point
Even if it’s not a fake, it’s still Hunter Blade. Hunter Blade isn’t just an outright rip off of MH, it’s also a game with terrible controls.
Hey don’t get me started on Hunter Blade — I thought ‘maybe this is the solution to having no Fronter?’ but i’m sure everyone thought that. I can’t even get the thing downloaded because even that isn’t straight forward… Eagerly waiting to see what comes from CAPCOM about western releases this year though.
Use your shield well!
I like the breakdancing button though
Watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ABo55sRglgY&feature=related without thinking “Why the hell aren’t we entitled to this?” :’(
God, I would really like Frontier here. All my friends have a Computer, not like a Wii or 3DS or Vita… MH is fun alone, but AWESOME in group.
You know what would be an awesome surprise to us Monster Hunter fans in the west? That Capcom of America suddenly said: “Okay we couldn’t bring you the eastern version of frontier, so instead we made the game from the ground up using the engine from Tric(or some other newer engine) and it’s all in english. Enjoy.”
Too bad this will forever be relegated to the realm of dreams though.
That would be great. I’m not the best of MH players – I haven’t even killed a Rathalos/Rathian yet but still Monster Hunter is my favourite game franchise. I love character progression and MH has a unique AWSM feeling to progression… to have a world that is patched with updates and has a great community base would be the icing on the cake
CAPCOM would make at least a bajillion £, $ whatever profit in sales…… I really wish they could hear my thoughts! lol It makes so much sense to me ¬_¬
bullet dodged any system that I do not want it’s vita and if MH comes on vita it may be the only way I will not be getting the game.
lol thats weird because that the main system I want it on..the reason Monster Hunter is what it is today is because of the psp..why not play Monster Hunter on its successor the Vita?..dual analog..OLED screen..nice graphics..should be awesome
woow and i was about to get a vita, o well i have to keep my savings untouched untill they say on wich system it will be released. I dont have a 3ds, vita or ps3 lol so chances are i’ll have to buy one. I cought a slack when it was released on the wii becouse i already had one.
Hello,
Just FYI, http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=145858
Well, it’s still a rumor, but I would rather get it on PC than Vita. I think we will have to wait for Capcom to officialy announce it.
Monster Hunter Frontier tease. But maybe a different company would drive it here in the west a lot better. Playing that waiting game.
The fact that it’s not monster hunter and not on the vita is not a rumor.
As long as it’s not one of those mmo companies like ogplanet, where the communities get zero dev support.
The graphics on the first screenshot look really nice… is the 3DS capable of producing something that looks like that? (i’ve never played one yet – but will if they release MH ¬_¬) And I know that probably isn’t even REALLY monster hunter on the screenshot, just curious if Nintendo could deliver those kinda graphics.
As far as i know about hardware : no.
Not graphics like those but something … Different.
The graphics on the 3DS with and without the 3D on (especially depending on the game) are quite different. That is one of the problems Nintendo runs into while marketing and one of the benefits of the 3DSxl. The XL allows for better viewing of the 3D from a few more angles.
But back to the point. The 3DS does not have the SE “sharp tight graphics” of say the vita, that is a fact but what it can do and the vita can’t is the 3D and while some may dismiss this it does make a big difference. By adding the 3D you are no longer seeing an object as flat but with depth.
The best comparison would be this:
Vita or any high graphic syatem without 3D: imagin looking at a well drawn picture of Superman on the cover of a comic.
The 3DS with the 3D turned on: Imagin lookin at a Heroclix action figure right in front of you. (or any toy action superman action figure you know well)
The comic book cover art can have a level of detail to it the figure is not capleble of but the 3 eminitnal figure has depth and realness to it the coverart could not come close too.
And that is the best comparison I can think of.
As someone who is planning to pick my next handheld system depending on what one gets the next Monster Hunter game, I am leaning toward a 3DS just for the entry price point.
I hate the 3d on the 3ds…every 3ds game I have..I turn it off and get pissed if it nudges up. Just doesnt do anything for me. I would rather this game be on a portable device just because they are easier for me to pause and play. I put about 600 hours into MH1 online..and like 300+ into TRI..but I have over 500 hour in monster hunter portable third alone..thats not counting that I play every version of monster hunter on the psp almost equal to 500 hours..portable is easy for me. I also like sitting in the same room and playing with 3 other people..versus when I was at separate houses play MH1 and Tri with my friends. ADHOC was awesome. I’m importing a 3ds from japan to get mh3g and 4..but I’m not happy about it. lol I already have 1 3ds and I gatta get the XL because it sexy. lol Just waiting for a working hack…and then I will be a happy camper. The last I checked the Crown3DS hack tool was at like 70% but its been like that for a LONG time so I’m assuming that it got canned.
..
I have reason to believe that this most like (wishful thinking) a monster hunter title because
- hunter blade doesnt look this good common who are we fooling?
- hunter blade doesnt have the exact same icons as monster hunter (would be copyrighted)
- who is to believe that they dont have something like RemoteJoy for the psvita in japan
At the end of the day, this could be the game for the US that capcom could have been hinting to be announced by the end of the year (hope it is)
