I think they'd anounce 3G because after the first game we've always gotten the game localized after Japan, and that usually includes the annoucement being after the Japanese release (that is if they actually give us information instead of another heartless message to wait.) Before the end of the year would mean 3G since 4 won't be coming out till next spring. I'd like both, and I think they may give us both. The new trailer reassured myself that it won't be platformer crazy like the first trailer was, and I like Kecha Wacha more than Gogomoa visually(may the hate soon begin.) That doesn't mean MH4 localization couldn't be announced, but given the past few releases it will be about a game already released in Japan.
