Hi,

I was first introduced to the franchise by my friend, who had the monster hunter tri on wii. I instantly fell in love with the game and bought the wii u version the same day.

Recently i heard about monster hunter 4 ultimate, and thought that it was for the wii u ( because monster hunter 3 was tri for the wii and 3 ultimate for the wii u) and I was absolutely chrushed, when i discovered that it is only for the 3ds, wich i don't have yet... I know shame on me.

I love the franchise and I have thought about getting a 3ds, but the real problem comes in, with the "new" 3ds. I have feared buying a handheld system, mostly because the graphics, oh god the graphics. And I just don't know wether i can make the jump from full HD 1080p monster hunter goodness to the admittably "potatoish" 800x240l screen of the 3ds. And i don't know if the pricetag of nearly 270€ wich equals to roughly 305 US dollars os worth it for the "new" 3dsXL + Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate bundle (XL because the normal is just freaking tiny). Especially now, that i'm planning to build a hefty gaming rig around fall wich will cost closer to 2000€ an amount of money that is REALLY hard for a 14 year old to get his hands to.

Have any of you guys played it? I've seen some gameplay material on youtube, but i don't know if the games resolution is playable on the smaller screen.

Leave your comments and ratings of the game in the comments.

Thanks

i almost 100%ed MHFU ^-^ it's a real shame that the lao shan and shen gaoren aren't in MH4U tho :(

i've played around 50 ish hours of MH3U and the resolution on the 3ds isn't an issue, there's a lot of great exclusives on 3ds additionally to monster hunter such as Bravely Default, A link between Worlds and not to forget the backwards compatibility to DS games.

You can get a new 3ds for 200€ if you don't want one of the incredibly rare MH4U special editions
