Topic: Monster Hunter Thwii

[Spinnzilla]

I'm tempted to get the bundle, I wouldn't mind having a Classic Controller for $10 since not every game that supports it uses the GameCube controller.

And pre-ordering the bundle on Amazon nets you a $10 credit so it is like you are getting the controller for free.

definitely thinking about this offer...

[Kytim89]

I took advantage of the 50% trade in offer from Gamestop and ended up buying this game and Red Steel 2 for only ten dollars each. What a deal?

Man does that controller look uncomfortable though. I never purchased a Classic Controller because of their uselessness. This time around however, it may be due to what is surely a rejected N64 gamepad design. Monster Hunter must play terribly with the remote/nunchuck if they're bundling it like this. I wonder if GameCube controllers are supported as well? I much prefer my WaveBirds.

I hope that's available until the release date as I'm not sure when I'll have some money to order it.

Amazon doesn't charge you until they ship the game, so you can preorder it now and you still won't pay anything until April 20th at the earliest.  Plus you can always cancel before the ship date.

I own a Classic Controller Pro, and let me tell you, it's not uncomfortable; it feels like a GC controller in my hands.

Does the Pro have any advantages over the Classic Controller?

Well, like I said, it's significantly more comfortable to hold. The analog sticks are a bit farther apart, which is nice for games like Geometry Wars that have you using both of them simultaneously. The shoulder buttons are a lot better: they aren't analog anymore, but I don't think any Wii games used that functionality, and them being digital makes them better for games that only use them in a digital way, like SNES games. The ZL and ZR buttons are now in a position where they can be used a lot more comfortably than before. Also, it bugged some people that the cord on the Classic Controller came out on the bottom of it; it comes out of the top of the Pro.

Compatible with my Wii Keyboard?
Bonus collectible Wii Points Card?

Maybe SEGA and EA should have sweetened the deal with their third party games and mayne they would not have sold so poorly.

[Adrock]

Or they could publish better games.... I bought Madworld because it's awesome. I didn't buy Sonic Unleashed because it's not awesome. I buy awesome games and while I like extras, just make an awesome game and you get my money. It's that easy...

Hey guess what everybody. Nintendo is advertising this game.
Here are 2 commercials.

These are pretty funny. They have a hook,they show the game, and it tells information about the game.

[BlackNMild2k1]

Correction, you mean Nintendo is advertising the game.

edit: those are kinda funny though, but I wanna see them aired on TV.

[BeautifulShy]

Yeah I just looked through this thread and Nintendo is promoting the game.

I like the commercials because they aren't scared to poke fun at society.

[NWR_insanolord]

Can you only get the bundle with a black CC Pro? I already have a black one and only have one black remote; if I get another CC Pro, I want a white one. Also, wasn't there supposed to be a bundle with the CC Pro and a Wii Speak? I don't have that yet, but if I end up getting this and playing with the club I suppose I should get one.

[BeautifulShy]

Insanolord here is the gist on the CCpro.
There will be a bundle for this game.The Bundle will have a black CCPro and the game.The bundle will cost $59.99 There is also a way to get the CCPro by itself. The CCPro by itself will be 19.99 and will come in Black and White.
As far as Wii speak/CCPro Bundle I will look around for that info.

EDIT: Europe is going to be getting the Wii Speak/Classic Controller bundle. I didn't see anything about a North American Bundle with all of those items.

"Oh grow a pair you bogand biddies!" LOL, though I
m not quite sure what a 'bogand biddie' is, if I even heard him right.

Is there even a white CC Pro? I thought black was the only option for them?

[BeautifulShy]

There is a White Classic controller Pro. Just look it up on Google Images. The White CCPro you can only get by itself...Who knows there could be a bundle that is announced before the North American release with the option of a White CCPro. The game comes out on April 20th so maybe there could be a new bundle.

Thanks for the link, I ordered my demo.

Nice to see a white CC Pro for color matching purposes, too. Pity I already caved and got a regular one a while back.

[Kytim89]

After playing the demo, I noticed that the camera and controls have problems that I hope Capcom fixes in the final release of the game. When you are fighting a group of enemies, the camera can get tanggled up and cause you to lose the ability to see what is going on. This is especially bad if you are in the midst of fighting a boss with a bunch of little monsters there to help him out.
 
Second. the controls are a little clunky. The demo has poor hit detection and it is very easy to miss your target and leave your self open for attack. Also, the character moves very slow, making it easy for enemies to chase you down.
 
Overall, the visuals fr the environment, characters and monsters looks fantastic. If capcom can fix these issues, there is no doubt that this game will be very speciel.

[NinGurl69 *huggles]

It's only an upgraded PSP game.  It doesn't use any unique features of the Wii.

The game is done.  You're not going to see it fixed.

"This is especially bad if you are in the midst of fighting a boss with a bunch of little monsters there to help him out."

This is the entire game.

"Second. the controls are a little clunky. The demo has poor hit detection and it is very easy to miss your target and leave your self open for attack. Also, the character moves very slow, making it easy for enemies to chase you down."

This is the point of the game and exactly how they wanted it to be (not very good).  Playing well means striking only at the right opportunities with the right timing, not whenever you want.  Hurting monsters requires big swings.  Monsters also follow the same, slow, limited hit detection rules.  Humans are slow cuz humans aren't fast like animals, especially wearing heavy armor.  To increase efficiency, hunt with friends.

"CONTROLS HAVE PROBLEMS"

They sure do.  There's no IR Pointer support, for example.

Additionally, so far, the USA demo and the full Japanese game only run at 360p during widescreen mode.  Capcom, how lazy can you be?

[Peachylala]

Capcom, how lazy can you be?

Resident Evil 5 made money Pro, so Capcom knows how to be lazy and successful at the same time.
 
God that sentence made me feel dirty. Is Capcom due for another bankrupt scare yet?
