Neko (Means "Cat") is a holdover from MH3U. He was part of a sea crew whose entire purpose in the localization was to make fun of fan translators :allears:
The ship captain would say stuff like, "It's very important to have a keikaku! That means a plan!"

Do you have an ace palico or some other customizable buddy or is it just side palicos or something like the dudes from 3U (cha-cha?)

You can customize the look of your first Palico, and then all the rest are randomized I think? You're able to customize them any which way you want with skills and abilities, and you can select any palico you have for prowler mode, I think.

She is an unlockable room service npc, apparently (note: haven't played Gen or reviewed too much info, so I don't know what the room service does. But Guildmarm is one of the few tidbits I looked up and she's in there)

This actually happened with 4U, but only for like 1 day, certainly not passed the weekend.

It'd be nice if it holds out longer, but nothing to really be surprised about here. Capcom actually ran some MHG ads on twitch for the last week or two, so some people are at least aware it's a thing there.

It's almost certainly going to get dethroned over the weekend thanks to EVO, but still awesome!

You can customize all cats you want scouted, but if you go that route you can't have them scout based on forte and what enemies they prioritize. It's one or the other.

The odd exception is the first cat offered to you in game - you can pick how it looks, but it's always Charisma (balanced) type, and always has those same skills on a new file.

Really though I'm at work and was only going to download it to have it ready, so it shouldn't matter. But the feeling of just knowing it's there and ready would give me joy.

The target I picked up my copy from a couple hours ago apparently only stocked four copies.

Also I'm kind of blown away that I can just start playing and not have a bunch of tutorial stuff in the first mission

Elemental and Status SnS are both great, because of how fast your attacks come in.

Yeah it's maddening, I just did a quick check at my local Argos store and they have plenty of the game in stock. I'm seeing posts on various websites (reddit, ocuk, neogaf, SA, IGN, etc) complaining about Amazon doing a fast one.
I think next time I'll just walk into the bleeding shop.

If it's any consolation, Amazon Customer service has a pretty good track record of refunding your money and cancelling an order that hasn't shipped yet. Even returns of items that have shipped are pretty painless.

Do Village offline quests go up to HR or are they just LR? I'm browsing the quests and it seems like even the 5 and 6 star offline quests only reward LR mats. I don't know any other way to tell at this point.

It looks like the Advanced Quests in Village 6 are HR.
