Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G For Cheap

Monster Hunter Portable 2nd G has sold over 3.5 million copies. But getting almost as much attention as that sales feat is that more than one million of it was accounted for by the game's PSP the Best budget version -- the first time a PSP the Best game has reached platinum status.

Expect the budget version to reach even further heights come Christmas. Capcom announced today plans to drop the price for the budget version from its current ¥3,140 to a new low ¥2,100.

The new pricing will take effect on December 24, just in time for the New Years gift rush.
