Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3DS Release Date Announced

Written by Cole Burton Saturday, 14 January 2012 15:46

The title that won my 3DS purchase in the first place now has an official release date. Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3DS will be shipping out sooner than most of us would expect. It will also take advantage of the Circle Pad Pro, should you choose to buy it.

Metal Gear Solid Snake Eater 3DS will be launching on February 21^st in North America and March 6^th in Europe. Amazon has the release date updated and is right on track. GameStop however is lagging behind, still showing March 20^th as the release date.

I recommend picking the GameStop exclusive Circle Pad Pro attachment with this title, as a second analog will make a world of difference. This coming from someone who has beaten Metal Gear Solid 3 on the PS2 and PS3 countless times, as well as the PSP titles. The Circle Pad Pro is, unfortunately, GameStop exclusive.
