Yeah, actually each MH game was released several months after the japan release. I think Tri was 6-9 months and MHFU 2 was like 12-16 months haha. MHFU3 was released in December. So its been 6 months. If it keeps to Tri its fully possible in a release late this year. which from June to December is anywhere from 6-12 month after Japan release which is right on pace for what they've done with past MH games.
