I don't know. It makes sense for other games. But they literally thew away 5 years of fanbase building on Nintendo consoles.
I thought they already announced a game for the Switch? Otherwise, Switch probably isn't powerful enough to be on par with PS4/Xb1 versions.
Rumor has it that Sony specifically blocked a Switch release. At least that was what the rumor entailed. The word was leaked back to Nintendo, and Ninty decided to remain quiet about it.
Its a spinoff, relax

There will be Monster Hunter games released on the Switch. That's almost guaranteed.
The leak prob got the name wrong but it was the game that we just saw, so that means Switch will get the traditional MH game which will prob be called MH 5
The leak said Switch will get MHXX and MH portable 5, we already knew this one wasnt coming based on the leak
I am already seeing ppl talking about boycoting XX, the fans are mad.
The Mario + Rabbids title was already known from prior leaks, and I'm pretty sure there had already been rumblings in regards to MH.
Who/what is Rainway?

Maybe wait til Nintendo's E3 actually starts???
One is already announced
There is a fundamental difference between a MH5 and a MH [insert title]. A game which does not look like, play like and isn't titled MH5, is likely not MH5.
And what is a MH 5 Portable?
Well, the reality is that Nintendo has terrible 3rd party support.

Look like Nintendo has a chance to "win" E3 lol. That was not a normal sony conference.
Sony E3 was too focused in 2018 like I expected. It makes Nintendo's decision to focus in 2017 games better to me.
I said for this game not the franchise as whole.

Microsoft and Sony's conferences were mediocre. Nintendo can only go up.
With a 30-minutes round up of their 2017 games ?
Ubisoft seems to have "won" already.

Wow... The MH World rumor being true is a huge slap in the face for the Switch...
MH needed a fresh start for so long now, the gameplay was really outdated a while a go, especially the world being seperated in loading zones... not to mention the graphics engine... and now it finally gets a "reboot" and its not on THE Nintendo console? That is really disappointing... Switch gets another oudated 3DS port while PS4 gets a completely new MH experience... I don't know...
I am very sad right now...

I'm surprise that Ubisoft has had the best conference this year so far.

Well, the Sony presser was a yawn-fest. The SotC remake looks good, but barely seemed to elicit a response from the audience. Monster Hunter World also looks good, but that's from my PoV as a non-MH fan. I'm not sure what actual MH fans would think (not that they're going after that audience anyways).
Everything else seemed to be some form of TPS with stealth kills and/or Arkham-style combat and QTEs. Disappointed that From Software didn't show up with a new game.
The Evil Within 2 is currently my Game of the Show, or at least, the game that has me most excited. Followed closely by Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle.
I have a feeling that will all change once Super Mario Odyssey gets blown out tomorrow.

I know it sounds like a petty comment, but yeah, hope the game bombs.
Game looked really cool. But oh well, thats just how it worked out I guess. I will never play a Monster Hunter game on a tv so I won't be getting this.
First bitter impressions aside: It will bomb in Japan. They will never accept a tv MH. I am not sure about the west but with so many action games on PS4 already it will be a tough battle. Good luck Capcom, you'll need it.
Obviously MH5 is probably still Switch exclusive, and I do kinda hope a MH5 is also in the Switch event tomorrow just for the lols but it probably won't be open world like MHW is which will deflate my hype for it. Open world MH looks cool as fuck, I must admit. Glad to anyone who only has a PS4/XBO/PC and never played it. I'm just upset with the announcement of no Switch version. >_>
Atleast I got a portable version of Undertale, even if it doesn't come to Switch. That was the one highlight of Sony's e3.

- Battlefront 2 did not get time at Sony or MS conference. Odd.

That wasn't a 4chan rumor. All the details mentioned were in previous leaks by LKD and Emily Rogers. Some of you are just talking shit now. And new S&P? Where??

The conferences this year aren't too.... appealing...
Hopefully Nintendo hits a bottom of the Ninth Game 7 of the World Series types of Home Run with their direct.

It is in one of the rumors about Switch which keeps being linked. The one talking about the booth and New Donk City. (S&P that is).
FFVII-R and RE2-R are starting to feel like TGS showings
seem you learned nothing from code vein lol

Yeah, except ALL the details it mentioned we already knew.
Just telling you the source for the S&P rumor. Don't mean to suggest I believe it.
As I crazy? I enjoyed a lot of what Sony was showing. SotC remake looks absurdly good

Games.
Yeah, I thought it was a good show. I think people were expecting more announcements though.

They also said that they would have announcements during the First hour of Treehouse.
Does the first few hours of the Treehouse livestream still "count" or is it "after-game"?
Nintendo's E3 is more than just the 25 minute Spotlight. There will be some surprises in the Treehouse. Many here seem to forget this.
MH World doesn't mean much for Nintendo. The series will continue with MH 5 on Nintendo Switch. Believe that one rumor, it got everything right.
