Monster Hunter Freedom 2G delayed in Japan

If you had planned to import the sequel to everyone's favorite monster hunting game, aptly titled Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G, you'll have to wait a short time longer. It's not a very long time, mind you. It's just two weeks -- instead of March 13th, you'll have your chance on the 27th. The game was cited for being delayed due to Capcom wishing to improve the quality of the game. We're sure the Japanese fanbase is excited to hear that, if they aren't too broken up about the delay. The smaller fanbase outside of Japan? Well, it's probably not that big of a deal.

noooo! then that means the import is goin to be delayed as well.. at least they had a good reason to pursue their decision and im still playing its prequel (MHF2) with my friends here, it's really fun when you play it together. i hope they add the infrastructure mode which everyone wants.

Well what can 2 weeks actually do for a game anyways ?

Possibly 2 weeks can let them set up an hosting server for infrastructure play, So we can hope!

Will there be a UK release for this game, or will I have to get an import? I haven't finished MHF yet, not started MHF2, so will probably just go straight for the newest version..!

as far as i'm concerned, this is the last chance for these guys to add infrastructure to this freakin game! it's bad enough Capcom sold out on the PS3. The least they could do is add some online play to MH2 G for those of us who refuse to buy a Wii.
