As if we weren’t already hyped enough about the Nintendo 3DS, Konami just had to go and release this trailer and these screenshots for the upcoming Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater remake on the console.
Of course the trailer isn’t actually in 3D but, watching the trailer, it’s pretty easy to get a grip on when the 3D is used and where. Or maybe we’re just going stir crazy.
Amongst fans Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater is generally seen as the MGS that tones down the self-indulgence and brings the most in-depth mechanics into play. It also has the best boss fight in the history of the franchise and, hence, the rest of gaming.
Hyped? You could say that. You could also say that the Pacific Ocean holds a fair amount of water, that Usain Bolt can run pretty fast, or Kyle Sandilands is a little bit annoying.
Alright, hyperbole over. You can go and watch the trailer now!

One of my favourites, and I never even got to play it all the way through – cannot wait for the 3DS (And not for the 3D, just because the games really in development really appeal to me).

There is a better version of this trailer out there.
