Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D - The Naked Sample

Metal Gear Solid 3DS: Snake Eater (previously know Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D - The Naked Sample) is an upcoming game for the Nintendo 3DS. So far, only screenshots of the game have been released. The demonstration at E3 2010 featured no actual gameplay, instead allowing players to freely move a camera around the map in real-time, demonstrating the graphical and 3D capabilities of the system. Promotional screenshots for the title show various scenes from Metal Gear Solid 3, several involving both Naked Snake and The Boss. The game was displayed on Nintendo's E3 press site and has an official page on Kojima Productions' website.

In a developer interview on Nintendo's E3 press site, Hideo Kojima stated that his choice of using Metal Gear Solid 3 as the setting for the demo was due to his belief that a jungle setting would better complement the 3D capabilities of the 3DS.

In a live stream where series director Hideo Kojima and other members of Konami answered fan questions they were asked about whether or not the game was a sure thing. The answer they gave was "We're going to see what people think and feel. What [Kojima] is going to do, is decide the right direction. This was more of a 3D depth presentation. The real game won't be like that. Your eyes get tired." So as for now the game isn't a sure thing.

Recently, Kojima said that they're considering including some elements from Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, including the game's co-op cooperative play system and portable-like elements. Also he said that this game has "high level models" that "are about the same quality as the stuff on the PlayStation 3."

During a Keynote of Kojima Productions in the Tokyo Game Show 2010, Kojima confimed the release of the game during the 2011. During the Nintendo conference of the Nintendo 3DS, in September 29, Konami and Kojima Production have confirmed it will launch Metal Gear Solid 3DS: Snake Eater on the Japanese market next spring, a month after the release of the Nintendo 3DS, also the official website contains a series of images and a trailer (shown on the 2010 E3).
