Is there any particular difference between this on a New 3DS and on a regular old 3DS(which I have hopefully correctly assumed will play this fine?)?

 

Loading time improvements and nicer textures are the two improvements I remember.

There might be more though...

Oh, right. The second circle pad.

 

EDIT: Yay! I beat someone to it! First time I've ever done that here. I'd like to thank myself for replying quickly and my mum and my phone!

I seeee! Im still rocking my original zelda 3DS - are there any known/expected differences in online functionality at all? That'd be my biggest concern. A new 3ds'd be nice with the extra sticknubthing, but it just feels like a lot of money for an upgrade I'm mostly nonplussed about.

There's slightly longer loading times when starting quests and moving between areas but that won't affect other players who are using the New 3DS in multiplayer. You can use the Circle Pad Pro if you want but idk the camera controls seem pretty poor in this one, in previous games you could move it diagonally and now in this one when there's a greater emphasis on verticality you can only move the camera on one axis at a time.

I was seriously close to canceling my pre-order for this recently. :hmm: Camera controls were doing my nut in, as was the constant thought that this game should be on Wii U. :mad:

 

But I played through the demo some more (with my weapon of choice, the hammer ;)) and somehow managed to get to grips with just using the L button to keep the camera under control. Also managed to solo all of those monsters, without losing a life. :awesome: Quite an achievement seeing as I got destroyed by Gore Magala previously, as witnessed by @Glen\-i. :hehe:

 

Brought back great memories of MH3/Ultimate though, and I'm pretty sure I can live with the shitty camera controls now, but I'll almost certainly be sticking to the hammer again, at least for the first 100 or so hours. :heh:

Yeah, target cam makes it a whole lot more manageable.

I find it weird that the bottom screen D-pad doesn't let you move the camera diagonally like it did in 3 Ultimate.

Oh well, not gonna be a problem for me when I get my New 3DS XL.

First time I tried the demo solo I was a little disappointed in the game. Fired it up again tonight f9r some online hunts and some excellent fun hunting the Testsucabra, but got my arse owned by the Gore Magala and 1 other hunter who seemed to just run in with complete disregard for their safety and health. Overall, an excellent nights hunting, and now I'm fully stoked for Friday.

Do you not have a CPP? That might help with the camera issue.

All I've had from ShopTo are order receipts for MH4U and my brother's copy of Majora's Mask 3D but then I'm not expecting them to ship until tomorrow, still... if they shipped today it would be nice! : peace:

 

Yeah i doubt they'll ship today, probably at some point tomorrow ready for Friday.
