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.
Scott Moffitt to Drive Continued Growth for Nintendo Hardware and Software Brands
REDMOND, Wash., May 9, 2011 – Nintendo of America is pleased to announce the hiring of a new executive vice president of Sales & Marketing. Effective May 9, Scott Moffitt will assume responsibility for sales and marketing activities for Nintendo throughout North America. Moffitt will work from Nintendo’s office in Redwood City, Calif., and report to Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime.
Moffitt comes to Nintendo from Henkel Consumer Goods, where he oversaw North American operations for leading personal-care brands such as Dial, Right Guard, Tone and Pure & Natural. During his five years as senior vice president and general manager for the Personal Care division, he orchestrated an overhaul of the flagship Dial and Right Guard brands.
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 DSiWareâ„¢ service sends players on a planet-hopping mission filled with intrigue and adventure. Meanwhile, on the WiiWareâ„¢ service, MDKâ„¢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.
