Although many have jumped to the conclusion that this may be a new game for Nintendo’s new console, Switch, it is more likely the Direct will be for existing titles, such as Monster Hunter Generations or Monster Hunter Stories for 3DS, which may receive DLC.
There’s also the chance that a new Monster Hunter could be announced for existing hardware like the 3DS or Wii U. This could come in the form of a re-release with new content and update for the 3DS or an “Ultimate” version for the Wii U, much like Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate.
As pointed out by Nintendo Life, the image used in Nintendo’s Twitter post uses the original PS2-era Monster Hunter logo, which may be a hint at a remake or re-release. Of course, GameSpot will be at hand to bring you the news as it’s announced.
The last game in the series to be released was Monster Hunter Generations. In GameSpot’s Monster Hunter Generations review, Justin Haywald awarded it an 8/10.
“Monster Hunter Generations’ tutorials are obtuse, and you can only learn where to find some rare items by dumb luck or by looking them up in a guide. But the combat system still offers the same deep rewards it always has,” he said. “Monster Hunter Generations still feels like a niche, punishing game that bears more in common with Dark Souls than an adventure game you’d typically find on 3DS. But that punishment never feels arbitrary.
“With Monster Hunter you get out what you put into the game, and Monster Hunter Generations is a game that compels me to put in more of my time.”

Rayman is without doubt one of the greatest franchises to be born from the nineties, and one that proudly lives on even today. While many of us will remember Rayman from his early outings on the Sony PlayStation and Sega Saturn, the creator of the series has just unveiled an early Super Nintendo prototype of the game.
For many retro gamers, it’s a hard choice to make when it comes to picking the greatest game in the Legend of Zelda series. While many will vouch for the Nintendo 64 classic, or the Super Nintendo epic, there’s still a vocal minority that stand by the Game Boy’s timeless entry in Link’s Awakening. One fan of the portable quest has decided to give it a more modern feel by porting the game to the Nintendo 64 using the Ocarina of Time engine.![Imagining The Nintendo Switch In Different Colors [Update: And Themes]](https://playerschoicegames.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/igwwgn3x9xvkytkvjgie-1.gif)
