Yeah, they wish they could start selling Monster Hunter games on the PSP level they sold.
Troll better.
I mean its obvious, that unless Capcom was planning on bringing this west from the start, that nothing will happen. It's just like portable 3rd and HD. Although there was talk about possibly bringing HD here, that was never capcom's plan from the start, so it didnt, and most likely wont, happen.
Sony consoles (especially PSP) never sold the game? Honestly. Troll F'ing HARDER! http://gamrreview.vgchartz.com/browse.php?name=monster+hunter&keyword=&console=®ion=All&developer=&publisher=&genre=&boxart=Both&results=50&order=Popularity
Categorized by console, newest release per console type first (in other words, latest installment of the game per console):
Monster Hunter Freedom Unite: 5.29 million sold (PSP)
Monster Hunter Freedom 3: 4.56 million sold (PSP) + 0.44 million sold (HD version PS3)
Monster Hunter Freedom 2: 2.49 million sold (PSP)
Monster Hunter Freedom: 1.29 million sold (PSP)
Total: 13.63 million sold + 0.44 (PS3)
Monster Hunter 2: 0.63 million sold (PS2)
Monster Hunter: 0.28 million sold (PS2)
Monster Hunter G: 0.23 million sold (PS2)
Total 1.14 million sold
Monster Hunter Tri: 1.97 million sold (Wii)
Monster Hunter G: 0.25 million sold (Wii)
Total: 2.22 million sold
Monster Hunter Frontier Online: 0.13 million sold (X360)
Total: 0.13 million sold
If you check the source for release dates, you can see the PSP outsold any other console by far (even by adding all other consoles together including the PS3). If this doesn't prove that Monster Hunter sold exceptionally well on the PSP, I really do hope that there is some kind of evidence against it. I'd add the 3DS sales, if they were available (Tri-G is kinda new, eh?). Regardless of sold so far, looking back at what the PSP had, it is quite clear that you just happen to either not have source (Google gave the source in a few seconds with the key words "game sales charts" and then "Monster Hunter") or just don't even want to look at anything else. Meh..
3 sold rather significantly less than the PSP Monster Hunters and was on a Nintendo console.
Of course Japan will eat up Monster Hunter if it was on almost any console. Maybe more so on the console brand that it started on and has persisted on.
EDIT: See Qtis's post for stats.
I would much rather list them chronologically like this:
I think it is a smart move from Capcom, because like I said the PSP-audience is already in MH-fever and eventually there`ll be a MH:F4 for those as well...
TBH I personally am not much into MH. It would be nice of SEGA to make PSO2 for 3DS though
Simply because it shows how well Capcom introduce MH to the PSP-audience and how they gradually managed to generate growth to the series by contently releasing new titles. I`m not trying to minimize the popularity of the brand on PSP but still I think by moving the brand to another platform they try to do the same with the 3DS while still maintaining the popularity on the PSP.

Does it matter? =S
Most likely they'll make the games multi-platform, I never really understood the need to bash another console's fan base, although I prefer Nintendo in the handheld department, I don't see anything wrong if they release it for the Vita as well... I think I read an article a long time ago that the reason why the DS never got a MH was because the graphics were too weak to be able to play MH properly, and I can understand that.
Anyways, all I want is the game to be localised in Europe. ♪♫ Nothing Else Matters ♫♪
Not hating on Valwin, but sometime he does seem like a troll, If he is, you guys are so falling for it.
Anyway, I did wish it would have online. :/

I'm not backing up Valwin but you really can't use them as a source since they are mostly unreliable.
Also you've listed them wrong, Freedom Unite came out in 2008, Monster Hunter Portable 3rd came out in 2010
Regardless of how accurate they are in numbers, the overall gives the clear view that the games sold quite well (which was my point). I've heard VGCharts isn't the best place to check the numbers, but I couldn't bother checking the other sources. :3
About the last part you are correct, I posted that quite late in the night in between exams and studying for them (quite a few nights with very little sleep). Sorry 'bout that

I doubt that will happen. Monster Hunter has a big emphasis on its multiplayer. Capcom is not going to split the user-base by releasing two different versions of the same game.
