707: Monster Hunter

What started as an attempt by Capcom to cash in on this new "online gaming" fad has escalated into the developer's biggest cash cow: Monster Hunter. Though the series saw more than its share of growing pains over the passing decades; despite the many attempts to make Monster Hunter a hit in the West, it's only become an incredibly popular crossover success in recent memory. So how did this idiosyncratic, grindy experience grow from niche audience to household name? On this episode of Retronauts, join Bob Mackey, Kat Bailey, and Brian Clark as the crew feasts on extraordinarily huge pieces of meat in preparation for the harrowing discussion ahead.

Retronauts is a completely fan-funded operation. To support the show, and get two full-length exclusive episodes every month, as well as access to 100+ previous bonus episodes, please visit the official Retronauts Patreon at patreon.com/retronauts.
