We haven’t heard much about Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater 3D since it was revealed at last year’s E3. Hideo Kojima did speak about the game’s release date many months ago, but only promised that it will be released sometime this year.

If MCV is to be believed, Konami is planning a late 2011 launch for Snake Eater. More specifically, the site has learned that it will launch this November. Konami obviously hasn’t confirmed the news, though we may hear something official at E3 next month.

There are only four new games today, but this is probably one of the better weeks for “Nintendo Download” we’ve seen in awhile. Mighty Milky Way and MDK2 are must-buys!

Whether you’re roaming the city or camped out in the comfort of your living room, this week’s new downloadable games invite you to virtually venture toward outer space for some wild intergalactic action. Mighty Milky Way for the Nintendo DSiWare™ service sends players on a planet-hopping mission filled with intrigue and adventure. Meanwhile, on the WiiWare™ service, MDK™2 features a trio of unlikely heroes who must join forces to protect Earth from a sinister alien threat. For fresh hand-held fun without the interstellar obstacles, a new retro-styled platformer and an irreverent picture-based game also make their Nintendo DSiWare debut this week.

These mockups are a bit more interesting than the last batch we posted. This time around we get to see some of the ideas fans are thinking about in terms of the actual hardware built rather than just the controller. These are some images of the controller as well, but things are pretty varied.

What do you guys think? Do any of these mockups interest you?

Ubisoft has previously said that they would consider working on Wii and 3DS versions of Rayman Origins. However, Game Informer’s recent article suggests a release only for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

But that’s not the end of the story. GameStop’s release lists indicate that Origins will arrive on the Wii as well as Nintendo’s old handheld. That is rather odd, as one would expect the title to arrive on 3DS instead of the DS. NeoGAF’s Shiggy, who has been fairly reliable with information in the past, claims that a confirmation of the Wii version can be expected during E3. I’m not too sure what’s happening with the handheld game, though… assuming that the GameSpot DS listing is accurate.

It’s also worth making note of two other inclusions on GameStop’s release lists. A Time Crisis game is listed for the 3DS, as is Sonic Generations. The latter seems like it could certainly be in the works based on the fact that SEGA revealed they were making a game starring the blue hedgehog for the 3DS at last year’s E3. No announcement has been made about a Time Crisis title for the handheld, but perhaps Namco Bandai is gearing up for a reveal next month. Then again, it could be a simple error…

Create and destroy planets with reckless abandon across 40 action puzzle levels. As Luna with her magical staff, explode vicious space monsters, avoid sizzling electrical barriers, and grab all the delicious planet candy you can while avoiding the scourge of the Milky Way—the laser-eyed T-Rex! Mighty Milky Way comes alive with j-pop, and a choral T-Rex anthem alongside the trademark 2D animation for which WayForward is known.
