Crush3D’s release date has been bumped around a couple of times. It was originally on track for a February release… which became January.

It was due out today, but the game is nowhere to be seen. That’s because SEGA has secretly pushed the title back to March.

The company hasn’t provided a specific release date. It can be expected sometime in March, however.

Hideo Kojima’s Epic Game Heads to Nintendo 3DS™ This February

Konami Digital Entertainment Inc. today announced METAL GEAR SOLID SNAKE EATER 3D Nintendo 3DS™ will be released on February 21, 2012. METAL GEAR SOLID SNAKE EATER 3D is a reworked update of the original best-selling PlayStation®2 title, bringing the immersive jungle setting to life using the Nintendo 3DS glasses-free 3D imaging system. KONAMI has also confirmed that the new game will also make use of the new Circle Pad Pro accessory, and has revealed the packshot for the first time.

METAL GEAR SOLID SNAKE EATER 3D is set during the Cold War of the 60s, and sees series hero Snake infiltrating the Soviet jungle to bring back a scientist being held against his will. Starting on the outskirts of a military base, the player must use Snake’s stealth skills along with the foliage and shade that the jungle offers as cover to infiltrate unseen. As the game progresses, old faces make unwelcome appearances and a series of terrifying boss characters must be defeated before leading up to a dramatic twist that brings Snake face to face with a key figure from his past.

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!

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.”
