I have absolutely no idea what Reggie was doing in the first half of the race. He straightens things out midway through, but couldn’t recover once he fell into a ditch and got hit by a Piranha Plant.

Thanks to Jake for the tip!

Konami has provided a final release date for Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D in Europe. It’ll arrive on March 8.

The company hasn’t said when the title will launch in North America, though you can expect it to ship in early March.

Snake Eater 3D will contain a number of new features, including a first-person view, a camouflage photography system, and gyro sensor support that will come in handy while navigating narrow ledges.

Kid Icarus: Uprising will make use of the Circle Pad Pro. Designer Masahiro Sakurai confirmed the news to ONM.

Players control the game by using the Circle Pad to move Pit when he’s on land while the touch screen is used to move the camera. The Circle Pad Pro will allow gamers to handle touch screen usage with their left hand and move Pit with their right hand. This will certainly be very beneficial for left-handed users.

Sakurai explained:

“The way we are using the Circle Pad Pro in the game is to provide support for left-handed gamers. We’ve made it possible to use the right Circle Pad in place of the left one.”

The Circle Pad Pro won’t be implemented in any other way. In other words, it doesn’t sound like you’ll be able to use the extra analog nub to control the camera – that’ll always be done on the touch screen.

“I didn’t know the specs of the Circle Pad Pro, or what it looked like, until Monster Hunter 3G was announced, so we weren’t able to do anything big with it in the time we had. Even if we had known about it from the start, I don’t know whether we would have used both Circle Pads in that way. This would end up being just the same as controls on other platforms and I think the quick aiming possible with the touch panel suits the game best.”

Ace Combat: Assault Horizon Legacy’s demo will be available on Wednesday through the Japanese store. Strangely, it can only be accessed three times. Once this play limit has been reached, the demo will basically become dead weight on the home menu as it can never be used again. That’s pretty darn strict!

Namco Bandai will also bring the same demo to Japanese retailers.

The company hasn’t said if the demo will also arrive on the North American and European eShops.
