After months of rumors, the Nintendo 3DS port of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater has an official release date of March 8, 2012 — at least in Japan.

The rest of us may have to wait a while, however: Konami told GameSpot that a North American release date can't be confirmed at this time, leaving fans of the franchise with a scanty nine games to tide them over.
