Isn't it coming out on Vita as well? Wouldn't be surprised if there were more sales there. Not because it's portable, but because Vita early adopters - the system didn't do badly at launch - may have been anticipating a Monster Hunter game hitting the platform. That said, yeah, it's not a real Monster Hunter game.
