As if this was not exciting enough, Nintendo have also released some new information about other 3DS titles including: Resident Evil Revelations, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D and Kid Icarus: Uprising.

Resident Evil Revelations will be available alongside the new peripheral, the Circle Pad Pro, from February 2. The title can be purchased on its own or with the Circle Pad Pro, which features a second analogue stick with two more shoulder buttons. Konami’s Metal Gear Solid, available March 8, and Kid Icarus: Uprising (TBC) will also make use of this soon to be released peripheral. This looks to be a great start of the year for 3DS owners!
