that thing doesn't worth an exclusive direct slot lol
A direct for a game nearly a decade old? I highly doubt it.
A 3DS game obviously.
I don't think they ever used a direct to advertise Frontier on the Wii U, so it's really doubtful.

MH Switch would be megaton
I could easily see it being that plus some updates and future DLC for Monster Hunter Stories and Generations.

NO SWITCH 😁
I see you Capcom.
I see you Capcom.
It would be disappointing. I don't think a 3DS game is what they needed to announce during the Switch craze.
Capcom gotta milk those old assets till the very end.

It's going to be XG for 3DS/WiiU, or Stories for 3DS, or both, with release dates in early 2017, so they can have a seperate direct that will announce that they're coming to switch at launch in january.
The only thing better than an MHXG that I can think of is MH5 on Switch, since that won't happen I will be more than pleased with the G-Version of MHX.
But who knows, maybe they'll just announce more collaborations for MHS...ugghh
That's where the money is.

I hope this is not a 3DS exclusive MH5...
They replace almost all special and particle effect in MHGen.
Also, why the hell they would only release another game for 3DS? Damnit, such a party popper for me.
I'm going to laugh my ass off if Nintendo let Capcom release another mainline title in the same year their new handheld/console going to be released.
Stories is already out. It'd be weird to have a Direct for a game that came out less than a month ago.
Well Stories is a spin-off aimed at a different audience so it's been about a year since MHX released in Japan.
Capcom has been pretty adamant about having yearly MH titles recently so it wouldn't be surprising.
Oh, thought it was releasing in nov for some reason. Probably a lot of details on that unannounced one then.
Even if its coming to Switch there is little chance they would announce so at the moment especially if they do not release at same time.
Switch version would destroy any sales especially if it takes advantage of the switches power

Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate 3DS
DLC add-on and package release, out in December.
Very predictable.
At least release it on Wii U.

sfgffcgt bitch
I see. Makes sense then.
The Direct won't address Switch but so won't Nintendo in general. I'm sure Capcom would LOVE the opportunity to sell the same game with a higher resolution on Switch again as testing ground and then after some time release a "real" Switch MH.

Yeah im sure they would love that. Guess they will have to wait till next year for that MH Switch reveal.

Y'all asking for Switch news - it says there'll be no new information regarding Switch or Smartphone apps, so expect this to be 3DS only news. It's likely that Switch MH news is being saved for the Direct in January.

This makes a lot of sense.
I guess they wouldn't want to release a Wii U version either, since it would diminish the Switch version novelty (prettier graphics and higher resolution).
A direct for an expansion or dlc so late in the year with no Switch news with it ?
Boriiiiiiing
I don't believe they can seriously think about selling 2 million + solely on 3DS in 2017.
