Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D a true remake

20111130mgssnakeeater3d

According to Siliconera‘s translation of a Game Watch report, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D is not a port or an HD brush up. Not only has the game been entirely remade, it’s been optimised for the 3DS hardware. Nice. Snake Eater 3D hits Japan on March 8; Western release is not locked down beyond early 2012.

Thanks, D’Toid.
