After only having a tentative "Summer 2016" release date, Capcom has finalized when Monster Hunter Generations will be coming west. There also will be a special Monster Hunter themed New 3DS XL console, which will retail for 199.99USD (It seems the game will be pre-installed for the EU release, but not the North American one). Europe gets a red console, while North America gets a blue version. A demo for the game will available be on the Nintendo e-Shop sometime closer to release.

NA has has a red console avalaible so they are getting a blue version and EU has a blue console available so they are getting a red one but EU consoles only having the game pre installed dosen't make sense.

Lets have facts, not apples and oranges comparisons to other industries.

With the last monster hunter console we got firm 9.2. Firm 9.2 was between Oct 29 - Dec 8 2014 and the console was released Feb 13 2015. That means the lead time was between at least about 2-3 months. This time pattern exists in many other special edition 3ds launches.

And even then, you're confirming the opposite of what you're arguing since the weeks you described add up to 9. That would put the new Monster Hunter console at <=10.7. lol

yeah yeah my bad.
I just wanted to tell that the probability to have the console on 11.X is not 0
That's why i said it's super easy to rework.

The circumstances last year are not the same as now (downgrading, A9LH, cfw etc)

I seem to find that very few 3DS bundles in the US have pre-installed bundles, especially recently, compared to Europe. Why is that? To prevent legit CIAs?

I really don't need another N3DS but I really fucking want the blue one.

They could have at least had eshop download codes.

Maybe I'm wrong but I have seen people playing the monster hunter 3ds games on youtube and it looks like all if not most of the games are only multi player or mmo. Why is that they can't work on adding a single player mode? After a while the servers for multilayer or mmo games become irrelevant.

You are wrong. They do have a "story" mode, though there isn't really much of a story, it's pretty much mission-based. MP quests you can play alone, MH3U (on the 3DS) didn't even have online...

Just to confirm, the American bundle doesn't include the game pre-install right?

Yes.

I hope the graphics on the n3ds will be better!

Don't they usually? My TLOZ:A Link To The Past 3DS came with an eShop download code.

Eh.. Am I the only one who really doesn't like the design.

It's not bad but the silver color and design on the monster hunter 4u n3ds is still the best imo

 

[Metab]

Does this mean its ganna have a legit CIA?

 

[Abcdfv]

Is monster hunter generations monster hunter X?

 

[Viri]

It'll obv be below 11.0, Nintendo didn't just start making those consoles this week. I kinda wonder what kind of screens it'll have though. It looks pretty damn cool, and this is coming from someone who has never played a Monster Hunter game. I may try this Monster Hunter out though.

Are you sure the EU bundle has the game preinstalled? The EU bundle just been announced at Australian retailers without the game included..

The package says pre-installed

 

[Urbanshadow]

Idk why I was expecting it to be n3ds only. The graphics will be roughly the same as mh4u (have faith, maybe a little better). I've already pre-ordered it.

 

[SS4]

It still isnt clear if game is installed or included with this in different countries . . .
I checked EB games and preorder arent yet available in Canada anyways . . .
I'll just keep an eye out and try to get more detailed info on the matter in the meantime.
