Called my local Wal-Mart, they don't even have it yet so there's nothing for them to break street date with. :(

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in the day, when things called "Tomodachi"s were "the thing", people would call the stores to ask if they had stock, and the associate--while literally handing them out to people in-store--flat out told the person on the phone, "No, we don't have any in stock."

Better to lie to people that aren't there to complain to management. Also, it's entirely possible that a few of the :gb2nitecru: decided to squirrel the box in an obscure corner so their paychecks can clear and they can buy them before they sell out entirely.

Not caring goes both ways :v:

Yeah that Walmart is butts, I've been in there twice and been disappointed both times (for 3U and....Armored Core I think). In'n'out is good though!

Yeah calling to check if a store broke street date rarely works. Places that do break it, aren't gonna tell you over the phone, that's how they get caught. That Walmart broke 3ds street date thing was also a crock, since it was just someone saw the DSes in the glass storage case, not actually bought one.

I hate her so much. Vince could've married some young hot gold digger, bought her everything she ever wanted, and still saved tens of millions of dollars. Instead he married an old dumb zombie woman who kicked JR in the nuts. What a bitch
Why is climbing this wall so loving difficult.

It says to press A. I press A, and I sit instead of climb. When I run against the wall so the "push A to climb" display lights up, I roll into the wall. I am seriously annoyed.

This is kind of old-ish discussion, but Monster Hunter does have move canceling, it's just not as ubiquitous as other action games or fighting games. The most blatant form is probably roll canceling recovery frames, like rolling out of the recovery of a super pound. The hammer also has charge canceling for the basic swings.
Moreover, you can cancel certain dashing/moving forward attacks into something else. For instance, the gunlance's running upswing can be shot canceled, depending on your timing, so you get the forward momentum, but you don't have to land the actual poke unless you delay the gunshot long enough.

So while Monster Hunter doesn't have a ton of move cancels, it's not exactly right to say that they don't exist.

Make sure you're not pressing B instead of A.

Their armor looks real sweet, although the full set isn't anything to write home about skill-wise (Low-Rank is Ice Atk+1, Meat Lover, Raise Hunger / High-Rank is Ice Atk+1, Meat Lover, Part Breaker, Raise Hunger / G-Rank X is Ice Atk+2, Meat Lover, Speed Eating+1, Part Breaker, Raise Hunger / G-Rank Z is Rec Speed+2, Stamina Recovery Up, Tremor Res, and Double Bleed). Only Rare 8 as well. Still definitely workable. The weapons are middle-of-the-pack ice weapons with the subspecies paths turning into para weapons that are actually pretty good. The sub charge axe (Desert Rose) in particular is really solid, Impact Phial with Para element, good raw and good sharpness.

Yeah at my local Wal-Mart they just lumped in the monhun/MM boxes with the stuff that should be on the shelves today. Didn't ring up of course because of the date was off but I figured I'd try.
