In this short time frame, the game has sold over 2.4 million copies in Japan -- the first PSP game to break the two million mark. Sales during the period went up 14.5 percent from the previous year raking in a total of ¥16.35 billion ($151m). Capcom notes that software sales other than Portable 2nd G were "mainly small-scale titles including spin-off software and repeated sales of existing products."
So Capcom, when can we expect the next Monster Hunter PSP game? It's obviously successful and needs some more money milking. Better yet, when is North America going to get in on the party with 2nd G?

I too would like to See Capcom bring Monster Hunter G to the US. I loved the last two. Plus the cut scenes are really nicley done. Also if Capcom does bring the game to the US I want to see them put a lot of marketing campaigns behind it. That is why none of the other MH games sell well because they have not been marketed to sell. Plus as an added bonus to help sell the game Capcom should put true online play in the US versions too.

It doesn't hurt that american reviewers all got together and agreed to never understand this series and give it endless low scores.

Plus... If they fix the Combat game play , they will probably double the amount of copies sold.

The combat's OK in my opinion. What sucks is the camera system.

Combat in MH is spectacular. Go play something easier if you require lock-on or other noobities. The camera only works for people with sufficient brainpower to operate it. ;)
