It was initially expected that the version of the hit title MGS: Snake Eater would be released around time but now it appears that early 2012 is a more realistic release window.

Both Kotaku and GoNintendo have received confirmation of the early 2012 release window making it clear that Snake will not go 3D until next year.

3DS owners will have to be content with titles like Kart 3D and a new proper Mario title for the new handheld this Christmas instead of Metal Gear Solid.
