Capcom never actually gave the world a reason why they didn't bring Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate to the Wii U. So after launching the game on 3DS, it was time for a little investigation to try and divine a reason for this omission.

Fox News: One of the most in depth, difficult and time-consuming video game series returns for the Nintendo 3DS, and despite its awkwardness, moments of extreme frustration, and general lack of accessibility, the latest installment looks likely to hook in yet another group of video gamers this year.

The Cinco Peso Press: There are two things I cant help but love: big swords and humongous monsters. Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate is the bridge that brings both these things together in the most spectacular of ways.

Vooks: The Monster Hunter series is one Ive always admired from afar. For the longest time, I understood that it was a huge game in Japan, as well as relatively popular in the West and this was for a good reason I just hadnt discovered yet. The first Monster Hunter I ever dipped my toes into was Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate on the Wii U and for a time I found it to be an immensely satisfying game but also one whose mechanics I found difficult to truly understand. It felt fantastic to emerge victorious from a hunt, but the game assumed a lot of prior knowledge and so I never quite penetrated the depths of hunting technique and shortly lost interest. Along came Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate on the 3DS which I suspected would suffer the same fate, but which instead has identified some of the shortcomings of past games and improved the experience for new players remarkably. I finally feel like I completely understand why Monster Hunters fans are so enthused about the franchise.

RPGamer: Eat, sleep, hunt monsters, repeat. Such is the life of a hunter in Capcom's Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate. The latest in the company's beast-slaying series brings with it a polished core from the previous entries, along with a variety of new monsters and features that refine the experience to make it the most approachable games in the series. The game adds a straightforward and entertaining story, combined with refinements to tutorials and early missions which should help new players get past the game's steep learning curve. It's a refined, beautiful, and exceptionally entertaining experience that stands head and shoulders above not only other entries in the series, but most other RPGs on the 3DS.

MCV UK: In spite of a few big releases this February, the games market is tracking behind last year. 1.4m games were sold last month, representing a seven per cent decline year-on-year. Meanwhile software revenue slipped 1.8 per cent to £39.1m. Game sales have generally been slow this year, with Evolve and The Order not selling as well as some stores had been hoping for. It was a big month for Nintendo. The platform holder released two new versions of its 3DS console, and the remake of cult favourite The Legend of Zelda: Majoras Mask was the single best-selling game of the month. This and Capcom's Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate helped the 3DS nearly double its market share in terms of revenue and units sold.
