They're not being lazy. This is Monster Hunter 3 G, not Monster Hunter 4. It keeps getting described as a sequel, but it's more of an expansion/ port. And considering that, they're adding a LOT of new content: new monsters, new weapon classes (compared to MH3), even the subspecies are new considering that there weren't any in MH3. Some of it's returning from past generations, but Bracchi and the new Elder Dragon are both brand new.

I admit, the only MH game I've played was MH3, but still--considering that this is an expansion to a console game that's being put on a handheld, there is a TON added content.
