About The Game
The newest instalment in the popular action RPG series from Capcom is making its way to the west this summer.
The new Style system and Hunter Arts create the most customisable Monster Hunter experience yet, while players will now have the option to play as a Felyne for the first time ever. The game will feature a special collaboration armour set based on Marth from the Fire Emblem series, while anyone who plays Monster Hunter Generations on a Nintendo 3DS system with Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate save data will unlock bonus content in the new game.

I'm counting the hours, trying to complete all my quests, still need lots more to do with MH4U!!! Maybe I'll buy it and have it sit....naaahh.
A major caveat about save data: http://game.capcom.com/manual/MH_Gen/en/contents1.html
"Performing the following actions will cause the game to become temporarily unplayable.
-Inserting the game into a different system and attempting to play
-Switching out the SD card with one that doesn't have extra data created by the system"
What's more...
"Performing the following actions will cause the game to become unplayable.
-Formatting the SD card
-Deleting the extra data from the SD card
-Selecting Format Save Data from the options menu"
So, yeah. Most likely done to shut down the rampant save hackers, but the used market for this game is kinda dead. Can you imagine somebody buying the game, only to be unable to play it because somebody returned it after firing it up? The only way to make it playable there would be a complete system data transfer.
Screw you too, hackers. Screw you too.
Can somebody help me i cant find the demo on the e-shop
@CrazedCavalier The saves are simply stored on the SD card. But that's pretty stupid, I can't play on another device, I can't lend the game to someone, etc... What's good in a cartridge if it has no save memory in our time?
