Playing the game by using communications to cooperate with friends to fight powerful monsters has created a new style of communicating that sparked a social event called the &quot;Monster Hunter craze&quot;. The number of fans has increased steadily since the first &quot;Monster Hunter&quot; title made its debut in 2004. The series has grown into a mega-hit with cumulative sales of more than 20 million units. <\/p>\n\n  <p>&quot;Monster Hunter 3 (Tri) G&quot; adds many new elements to fully utilize the capabilities of the Nintendo 3DS. This game is based on &quot;Monster Hunter 3 (Tri)&quot; for the Wii\u00ae, a title that was introduced in August 2009. Players can enjoy three-dimensional images with greater depth. The game allows players to customize the touch screen for smoother operations.
