Metal Gear Solid creator Kojima reveals limited edition Snake Eater 3D 3DS unit with 'snake pattern embossed design'

A limited edition Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D Nintendo 3DS system will launch alongside the game in Japan this spring, the series's head honcho Hideo Kojima has revealed.

Kojima took to his Twitter account over the holidays to tease fans with some pictures of the hardware and confirm that the limited edition handheld would feature a "snake pattern embossed design".

Because this special edition 3DS unit is part of a planned Konami hardware bundle, it's pretty darn safe to assume it will include a copy of Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D.

Unfortunately, further details such as pricing and availability are under wraps until January 20th.

Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D is scheduled to drop in Japan on March 8th, 2012, and it's one of our top ten most anticipated 3DS games of the year.
