Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate Getting A Demo In February

going to downloading this to see if i like it

Thank goodness, atleast the demo can be a helpful for practice before buying the full version.

Does anybody know if their is going to be a collector's edition?

@RedRocBoy
Maybe, but we will see. If there is a Collectors for Wii U I may buy it even though I don't have a Wii U yet. I could see a 3DS XL bundle or bundles. Wii U bundle might happen but unlikely. We will probably hear more about mid February.

I'll give it a try.

Lol, like we need a demo for this

@sir_Anthony
I haven't played any of the games before. I understand the premise but I'm not convinced the game is for me. I was going to ignore it. Now I'll download the demo and give it a try.

The more demos the better. I don't understand why you'd imply that demos are worthwhile for some games and not for others.

The WiiU version is an instabuy, I probably won't get the 3ds version but I'll give it a try anyway.

Like a need a demo to make me want this.
But I'll have a go to marvel at those beautiful HD graphics.

Im going to download the Demo if I like it enough I will get it for 3DS. No online play Turned me off But I also love good single player games and im sure this will be good

YESSSS! I was hoping this game got a demo. I've never played a Monster Hunter game, but videos i've seen were pretty good. Just like Fire Emblem Awakening, if it weren't for the demo, i wouldn't be convinced 100% to get the game, i'd be skeptical in getting it, not knowing what to expect. Can't wait!

Don't need the demo to know ill like it. It will probably be just like the one released for the Wii a few years back. However I do want to see those monsters in glorious 3d! So I guess ill download it!

Fire Emblem AND MH3U!!!! Just played the FE demo yesterday, and was very glad I preordered. Now I'll preorder MH3U since it finally has a date. Can't freakin' wait.

Bring it on!

So happy about the keyboard thing! It's coming! Prepare! Exclamation mark! Buy the wiiU version! For online! It's awesome!

No, really, it is.

"Monster Hunter Try"

....................lol

I'd get the demo if you could trade over your items and stuff you got form the demo to the full game... that'd be nice

@cornishlee in my case then. I haven't played any of the monster hunter games either, but after the trailer it was an insta buy for me.

I hope this game sells well in NA and the UK!

Time to practice my Intergalaxy finger crackin style.

Great news! I'm still debating which version to buy, so now I can try first

@sir_Anthony: The series isn't doing that great over here, yeah we need a demo...
Otherwise people will think (for some odd reason) that its some boring shovelware, or something...I dunno xD) I also kept hearing things like "its a port of the Wii game." And this demo would be there to prove them wrong.

im gonna get the demo but i preffer to wait for MH4

Good. That way I can see how much of a deal breaker no second analogue for my 3DS really is.

Can't wait to see it in 3D

A demo is great news, now I'll be able to try this and Castlevania to decide which to buy first. Very much in two minds at the moment, loved Castlevania for years and never played Monster Hunter before, but I have a feeling this could change...

@Tantan :
You can actually watch a 3D trailer on the eshop, just search for Monster Hunter and it will come up.

Hopefully the 3DS demo will be better than than the Wii Tri one was ... maybe it was because I didn't have a CC at the time, but that version wasn't doing itself any favors.

Awesome. I can't wait to try this out. Really excited for the demo.

I'll play it.

I almost bought the wiiU just for this, and the assumption of all top franchises. I am ecstatic about the gamepad voice chat. I was going to use game pad anyways, manage inventory nicely, now built mic for voice chat, pop my headphones in if I'd like, beautiful!! I played tri a lot, and I'm still going to play the demo just to satisfy cravings!

i hope the demo has multiplayer like the HoR demo did

Come on February then March, then no life.

Come on capcom, where's our wii u port of resi 6?

I won't be getting the Wii U version, but if the demo for it on the 3DS is any good, I'll start saving.

@Jgam Unless you're living in Japan, waiting for MH4 would be unwise. We may not see that game for a couple years if at all, especially if MH3U doesn't do well outside Japan. The way I see it, MH3U is already set to be a more complete game than whatever they will offer in MH4 so it's worth the buy.

YES!! We need more demos for games, Nintendo! If it weren't for demos, I probably would never even think of getting Fire Emblem or Monster hunter!

Glad there is a demo. This game made me interested in it.

Of course we need the demo! If I can be convinced that this can be played decently on my 3DS without a CPP, I am more willing to part with my money.

And more demos for Wii U won't hurt.

@harman-smith You're joking, right?

@Weedy Over here in NA we didn't get the video

I have no Doubts this game will be pretty good. I prefer to play this type of game with friends and no online multiplayer for 3DS may make it a deal breaker for me

Been wanting to get into this series and this seems like the perfect chance.

I'm happy about the demo but i really hope the eShop get's the game on launch day, retail stores here in méxico rarely get 3DS games in the first week of release and i hate waiting

@Bucho if i'm not mistaken you will be able to buy the game on Launch day

I can't wait for this game to come out really looking forward to it big chance i'll buy it for 3DS and WiiU since you can't play the game on the gamepad

It would be great to be able to transfer your equipment from the Demo to the Full Version.... That you don`t have to start from the beginning.

@Dunban ughhhh I totally just read your comment in Dunban's voice in my head lol

so for those who dont play this yet or do and have an issue with the controls try this method (it helped on psp and ive modified it for a 3ds without a circle pad)
shift your thumb down to the dpad to control the direction you look then shift your pointer finger to the circle pad and finally move your middle finger to the left bumper, im not sure how this will work for the 3ds and it will probably feel akward for awhile but it seems to help us. we affectionately call this the monster hunter claw. if this helps you well playing or doesnt please leave a comment. hope it helped and happy hunting to all.

also to those psp hunters the original MH claw goes as follows.
leave your thumb on the control stick to move your character, shift your left pointer finger down to the dpad to control your camera, then move middle finger up to the left bumper again this may feel akward for awhile but give it time and the claw may also help you.
as for you who play tri, you have my codolences as for there is nothing even remotely helpful to you in the form of controls.
so again let me know whetner the claw helps you or not with comments cause im curious about the rest of the MH community.
hope it helped and happy hunting to you all.

I pre-ordered this because the videos convinced me and the demo might hold off the long wait for the full game.
