User blog comment:Bobofango/Wii Speak finally confirmed for Monster Hunter Tri/@comment-158109-20100201190526

If MHtri is pay to play, then I MIGHT not get it, I don't really see why they should be charging for online play.

MH Frontier is a different story though, it's huge and theyre always updating with new stuff, areas, and monsters. I'd gladly pay for that.

Wiispeak is a pleasant upgrade to MH playing.
