Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D is now available for the 3DS. Here is an hour of footage from the very start of the game.

I got MGS3D as well, and this is the first MGS game I've ever played.

For the record, the graphics are just gorgeous, and would even agree with EDGE that it looks better than the HD versions because, graphically, it isn't just a simple port. It may not have increased resolution and improved textures like the HD version has, but it uses the 3DS's shaders and such that the HD versions do not include, making the presentation a great one in it's own regard. However, it isn't without the simple fact that the frame rate dips into the 20s and sometimes even lower, but the only times I've seen that happen are during cutscenes, which imo isn't really problematic. The framerate during gameplay looks to be rather steady from the areas I've experienced.

It IS a simple port. The only thing added to the graphics is the 3D. In 2D mode, it looks exactly like the PS2 version, low framrate and all.


The HD version is the superior version, as is the Vita version will be when it's released.

There's gonna be a Vita version? Is it a Vita version of the HD Collection or just MGS3?

From what I understand, the Vita version is the entire collection. I would think Konami is keeping the US Vita version the same as the US PS3/360 package. The Japanese collection doesn't include Peace Walker but the US version does.

And I thought the 3DS version used the threat ring from MGS4 and Peace Walker instead of the camo index from the original Snake Eater, meaning it's not a port but an actual remake.
