Why The Monster Hunter Series Came To Wii
Wednesday, 10 Feb 2010 - 21:14PM
Ryozo Tsujimoto, the lead producer on Monster Hunter Freedom Tri has revealed the main factor of the series coming to the Wii was the consoles motion controller.
In an interview with the guys over at WorthPlaying, Tsujimoto said;
"It's actually the biggest reason. You mentioned "aside from the motion controls," but actually, the controller part of the Wii version is the biggest focus that we had, the main element that we wanted to present to the new users."
The producer was also asked whether the game might move to the PS3 or 360 in the future, but the answer he gave seemed to divert the attention away from the question, so who knows.
Monster Hunter Tri was released in Japan last August. The game is set for an April western release.

Monster Hunter Tri looks amazing, definetly one of the biggest Wii releases this year. I am surprised though that, given the huge success of Monster Hunter on the PSP, Capcom haven't announced a PS3 entry for the franchise.
