Want that sexy black Wii Classic Controller Pro pictured up there? Hope you like Monster Hunter!
Capcom and Nintendo have announced that this April a special Monster Hunter Tri bundle will be released, packaged with the above controller. The Classic Controller Pro isn't just a fancy, darker color -- it features a second row of shoulder buttons, as well as grips so your sweaty paws don't slide off the peripheral when hunting monsters. If the controller looks familiar it's because it's been previously made available in Japan only; it'll will work with any game that supports the standard Classic Controller.
Price? $59.99 for the game and the controller. Not a bad deal, really, considering Monster Hunter Tri was going to probably run you $49.99 anyhow. So, do you want this thing or not? Tell us!

Personally I prefer the regular classic controller because the pro feels a little too light and empty. The shoulder buttons don't really feel as satisfying to press either imo.
Cannot wait for MHT, but i got the Wii back the other day, plugged it in, showed the Mrs a bit of Wii sports, played 9 FRUSTRATINGLY AWKWARD holes in Tiger Woods and turned the fucker off.
Then i grabbed the PSP and hunted a few Monsters, hopefully the awesomeness of Monster Hunter will overpower the shitness of the Wii.
The Wii is the one and only console purchase i regret, can MHT make it worth buying. Hopefully.
You are thinking of the regular Classic Controller that came bundled with Monster Hunter G. Tri's controller was the Pro and wasn't branded in any way.
The pay to play model is Japan only, it's free to play online in the western release.
What Pay to Play.. Pretty sure Capcom have scrapped Multiplayer costs in NA and PAL territories to try and sell more
Not like before, with my muscle memory and the Wavebird.
Is it really free over here?? FREE?!? YEEEEESSSS!! I'm so buying this!
Depends on the game I guess? But hey, no big deal if you don't like them.
As far as the controller goes, I may just cough up an extra ten bucks for this. Considering that I was going to probably buy this game anyways....
I've never played a Monster Hunter, and a forum I go on always has a Monster Hunter General up. This a good place to start?
