Just tried the demo.. beaten the easy one a couple of times without too much difficulty despite being a total newbie of the series..
My early impression contains both good and bad points..

The control is kinda awkward without 2nd analog stick tbh.. its hard to look around with the dpad when ur left hand is busy controlling the movement.. think it would work better if the camera rotation is mapped to L n R buttons and use dpad for equip/unequip weapon & item usage.. circle pad pro is probably a must if ur buying this game..

However, the graphic looks gd and has decent depth in 3D.. olus the environment and monster texture are beautiful.. i like it how we need to play intelligently instead of blindly hack n slash the mob without doing any thinking.. u need to understand their attack patterns and  try ur best to dodge them.. only charge when there's opening .. u could even tell that the monster gets weaker n slower when their hp is low..

I tried sword & shield, great sword & long sword.. so far i like great sword the best.. gonna try the other weapons later tonight..

good news for Wii U user

Online is now cross region between US and EU and free to play!

MHU for Wii U also added off tv play on the gamepad!

our save files can be played between a 3DS and Wii U - has to be same region of course. the news is just letting us know that while we're on US Wii U console, we can still play with EU players, and vice versa.

RM1499 for a 32GB Deluxe or Premium US based console. What is deterring me away from this is the warranty - seeing all this are "imported" stuffs.

Am looking to get back to hunting on a WiiU.

Anyone has the WiiU and 3DS with MH3U demo installed and do not mind to give me a quick 30 minutes run over it? Reason being is that I am hearing the controls is way different as my hunting experience were mainly on the PSP consoles and I would like to experience this first hand. I would make your time worthwhile - say a good meal and coffee?

MH is either hit or miss with most ppl. Everyone reason playing MH are different. For me, I love the difficult challenge to slay/conquer monster. A bit similar to Demon/Dark soul game.

I just bought a 3DS XL just because of Monster Hunter Ultimate. I use PSP just to play MH, now KO already, so next stop 3DS. Now can't wait MH Ultimate to release.

Oh, ya forget to mention. Trying to play MH without CPP is very difficult. Using d-pad to change camera view and the same time use analog stick to move. Very hard when battling monster.

stay near tasik/ pasar there    but now studying in johor

is it actually possible to defeat the hard monster in the demo within the given 20 minutes?

/prepping inventory.

Please...

You don't want me angry. AT ALL.

(That is directed to Capcom Hong Kong)

Capcom Hong Kong basically regulates the Asian version. they will also distribute the US version (if there's no Asian version available).

nobody receive it yet?
