Monster Hunter Portable 3rd, the announcement we’ve been waiting for is made and what do you feel about it? I’m glad this is not a direct port of Monster Hunter 3 (tri) (not that I played Tri but after more than 4 million copies MHP2nd G sold, we are still getting port?) and it will be out at the end of this year (of course Infrastructure support is always nice). Nothing really new from the initial trailer (above) but with at least more than 8 months to go before its release, I’m pretty sure that Producer Ryozo Tsujimoto and his team will have something big in store.

After years of being a great helper (and to some extend, helped Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G to sell million of copies), the cute Ailus (or Airou) get their own game in this spin-off title called MonHun Nikki Poka Poka Ailu Mura for PSP. The game will have you collecting all kinds of Ailus by going to quests, where you will meet the cute version of monsters like Yian Kut-kut. Monster Hunter structures like the shops, farm and quest counters are in the game, and there will be some kind of data transfer with MHP2ndG. I know we have (or used to have :) a lot of monster hunters in this website, so What do you guys think?

On the final of today’s Monster Hunter Festa ‘09, Capcom made a surprise announcement that a new PSP title called MonHun Nikki Poka Poka Ailu Mura is coming soon. No further info is given but this will be a spin off title of the hugely popular series. From the title, which I will roughly translate as “MonHun Diary: One After Another Ailu Village” (pretty sure it’s wrong :), it sounds like an adventure game featuring the beloved cats.
