I think he is referring to home brew, possibly emulation, not piracy

I thought the 3DS eshop shut down already. Either way, the system is discontinued. I think most people would just hack it at this point.

The only thing thats changed at this point is the ability to add Credit via a credit card, I believe.

I've always been curious about the monster hunter games. Which of these would be best for a first time player? Generations? I have enough credit for 1 game.

I would say MH4U is the best for first time players on 3DS. It has an item that makes the game very easy mode. This one is a bit more difficult as there are more buttons that you need to press. and the lack of said item.

While I feel Generations is the best all-around MH game (even with World and Rise factored in), I wouldn't recommend for the 3DS simply because you can't get the Ultimate version, which is an expansion MH games eventually get that adds more content and more challenge. If you have a Switch or plan to get one, get MHGU on that instead (it gets decent discounts now and then).

I'd second the recommendation for MH4U, if you can only pick 1. MH3U has some interesting and unique features (untimed hunting in Moga Woods, 3 bowgun types with swappable parts, underwater combat), and would also be worth playing if you decide you just want more. But out of the 2, MH4U feels kinda more polished. A bit more story-focused, but still tons of content, a vaguely roguelike-ish hunting mode, and you get palico companions (and a neat hunting mini-game using them to gather more stuff) which is pretty nice.

I feel weird discouraging Generations, even in non-Ultimate form, since it lets you actually play as a palico, which has its own combat styles and progression system, basically a completely different way to play through the game. The style and art system for regular hunters also provides a lot of combat variety. It's just a shame the Ultimate expansion wasn't released everywhere for 3DS, without that it's kinda half a game content-wise.
