I think it would be great if the new monster hunter was on the wii u. I have family and friends with ds and I have the wii u and the ds. But I really like the Monster Hunter game on the tv. To me makes it so much better and with the wii u tablet makes it much more easier to navigate. Plus I notice when the wii u is in the mix seems there is no lag. I encounter some lag when ds to ds. I hope by posting this maybe other people will feel the same and maybe will change the minds of the overlords. Would be nice to bring the MH series back to the big screen versus a small screen...
I thought DS was a typo, but you repeated it four times.
Anyway, MH3U for Wii U didn't sell well enough to justify more ports to the system. It's a very Japan-centric series who have entirely different gaming habits. Handhelds are king and multiplayer is generally done via ad hoc on trains, in classrooms, etc.
So Anakin kneels before Monster Mash and pledges his loyalty to the graveyard smash.
Capcom already said the only reason MH3U existed on Wii U was because of online multiplayer. That has been fully integrated into MH4U so in terms of that, there's no need for a Wii U version.
I also would prefer a Wii U version but, due to Wii U's lack of popularity, it's unlikely that we would get a Wii U version. A PS4/XOne version, perhaps?? Nintendo is just the European publisher for the game.

As nice as it would be, I can't see a Wii U version happening anytime soon due to what you mentioned.
Sony already screwed over Capcom and prevented the west from getting a couple of MH games already, so I wouldn't hold my breath to see a MH that's not Frontier on a PS system.
XBone: Why? Japan is the largest regional demographic for MH. It's also the same demographic in which the Wii U is outselling the XBone by orders of magnitude.

Thank you for your reply. I "only" have 3DS, Wii U and PS4 this generation but I don't think Monster Hunter is happening again on Wii U and, as you well explained, it's not likely that the franchise would appear on PS4 now. I think I'll get the 3DS version and the New 3DS (and sell my 3DS XL).
Doubt it'll happen on a Microsoft system, maybe the Wii U could get MH5 at some point. But if it ended up on a Sony system, then...well, good luck getting that one localized.
