monster_hunter_vgMonster Hunter is a popular video game series for console and portable gaming platforms. Some of its titles were never released outside of Japan.

Capcom is planning to bring one of the older portable versions (Monster Hunter G) to the Nintendo Wii. Why not a more recent version is not exactly clear. To sweeten the deal, they are also including a preview version of an upcoming title in the series, as well as something called “Monster Hunter Hunting Cards”, some kind of TCG.

No further info available on the TCG. There was already series of cards with Monster Hunter pictures on them (below), but I don’t know if they’re related, or if the original cards were a TCG.
