Monster Hunter 3's Western release changing for the better

"It's something that we're looking into at the moment and there are a few factors to consider. Firstly, Monster Hunter isn't as popular in the West, so it might put people off. Secondly, Japan doesn't have Friend Codes, so Capcom run all the servers and the monthly fee is essentially to pay for those costs," Capcom's Chris Kramer said.

In addition, Capcom producer Ryozo Tsjmoto said that the publisher is currently "looking into" possible Wii Speak functionality for the game.
