Awesome, I'd ask if we could have that for NA, but they'd 'prolly see that as unprofitable like those RPG's that never got released over here :(.  At least we're eventually getting the game... right?

MH doesn't have the fanbase to justify a Higher priced 3DS here.

While that is the suggested retail price of the game (as it is for many 3DS and Wii games), gamers in Japan should be able to find it cheaper at electronic stores and such. I just checked Amazon, and right now they have the stand alone game listed at 4,705 yen. Nothing on the special edition console or Slide Pad bundle in terms of price, other than what you see above.

I hope this comes up for sale on Play-Asia; I've been wanting to get a Japanese 3DS and this one is perfect.
