It's Official, Monster Hunter Stories Is Coming To Switch

Does that imply Monster Hunter Stories 3?

This isn't the Oracle of Seasons/Ages remake I was hoping for...

killer7 port, CAPCOM, please...

@Zeroo nope, it is a rerelease

@Vyacheslav333 Killer7 and the Viewtiful Joe games would be instant-buys for me. Come on, Capcom. Take my money!

At last. Another 3DS game salvaged onto Nintendo Switch. Meesa wallet is ready.

Come on Capcom, give us that Ace Attorney fix. A new one, not another repackaging.

We have Monster Hunter Stories 2 on the Switch (we liked it in our household) already so hopefully it's MHS 3?

I've already played MH1 on the 3DS and though it was a good game, I'd be disappointed if they just ported that as a HD'fied version onto the Switch instead of doing a no.3 . I suspect this will be the case though if this leak is true.

@BlackenedHalo oh word? they bringing over the original game to Switch? as well on PS4 and PC. I wonder if the Switch release will retain the amiibo features the 3DS version had. Now that I think about it I don't think Stories 2 never made it to PS4 but did on PC.

well, I have the original on 3DS.
it's very good, but would need some wild new features to justify a $60 double dip.

CHIP'S CHALLENGE LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOO

Seems to me this will be an enhanced port for the rest of us as it will include some new monsters that only Japan got during the 3DS time as well as some Post-Game content. Very nice.

Wait, they will talk in English ??
Not the Simlish language anymore?

Edit: Btw, I will double dip the Switch version as well after I have the 3DS version (that I still haven't even finished the beginning part)

Nice! Glad to have more full series in one place. Plus the 3ds has tons of games to raid and port.

I'm glad I stayed away from NintendoLife until I watched the showcase. This was one of my highlights, and a nice surprise! I'm disappointed that my hunch was correct and NLife was going to spoil something fun. Boo, NintendoLife! You really want those quick clicks at any cost 😠

As someone who missed out on the original MHS game along with the fact that me and my sister both loves wings of ruin this is a no brainer. Really excited!

Lazy Capcom didn't even bother to update the graphics or framerates or add any new contents. Having voiceworks is nice but not enough to warrant $40 again.

I loved both the Monster Hunter Stories games but I'm not going to double dip on this. Highly recommend this series if you haven't played it.

No!!! I still didn't get to the 3DS copy in my backlog.

Probably going to skip it, I got it and finished on the 3DS, and later on I got it on sale on iOS and Android.

I expect this one to be based on the latter two btw.

well that's weird.

I think the voice work and museum with artwork and music is enough to push me over the line for this. But unless it releases at sub-£30, I will probably wait as most Monster Hunter games get cheaper.

This looks like a port of the iOS version… which was a port of the 3DS version. Hopefully it’s not going to be full price, especially how Monster Stories 2 isn’t even full price on the Switch. Not sure how good it will be if you played the 2nd one first. There were a lot of monsters, strategy and such added on the 2nd one.

This was my favorite announcement!

Really Hope it’s physical with the out of print amiibo

No, I'm more than happy with my 3ds Mh stories with stereoscopic 3d! I will skip switch version.

I'm so hyped!! The sequel was amazing and I never got a chance to play the original so this is definitely a day one purchase for me.

Ironically the museum mode is what's making this a must-buy for me! EVERY Monster Hunter game needs a dedicated music player mode, and thank goodness MHR lets you change the music in both village hubs. I also really wish MHR had a dedicated art museum mode to look at all the gorgeous artwork between Rise and Sunbreak.

Awesome! I really want this game. I have stories 2 but felt I really wanted to play 1 first. Now I can

Hopefully amiibo will still be comparable with the Switch version as I got Navirou back in the day for the original.

People are funny, a few years ago capcom put out onimusha remastered on ps4 and switch and literally no one bought it. They put it out to see how popular it was and see if it was worth rebooting. Capcom literally said well not a lot of people went out and picked it up so were abandoning remasters and a reboot. They literally give fans what they want but people don’t buy it in the first few weeks and wait until 2 years later to buy it used or on sale and wonder why they are hesitant to support new reboots or releases. Look at re4 remake that game didn’t sell as much as other franchises and it’s a remake of one of the greatest games of all time. Because the fans say do this please do this and then they wait until the game is on sale for 7.99 3 years later. Resident evil 3 remake came out and sold like a million copies in its first month . But if you look at its sales now it’s at 7 million copies sold. Why because people waited for it to go on sale for 15 dollars. My point is everyone is begging for them to do more stuff and no ones buying it. I kinda wish it was like the 1990s when they made what they made and we were happy with what we got. They did put oracle of ages and minish cap on the expansion pack . Wonder how many people actually play them or just hope the price drops and play them eventually in a few years hoping they remake them

This game was a good game on the 3DS. I made it to the end but the final boss kept on coming back up. But it was epic! I’d say that I did beat that game with my Rathian even though that big guy kept saying No! I am glad to take it on again this summer.
