Or 3D Touhou.
I'm just going to wait until I am able to judge it for myself - I honestly don't believe it will work, but I might be proven wrong. The issue I see is the detection of 3D movement isn't included in the 3DS, just 3D visuals... So really, you can't "move around" like I think a lot of people expect... I also don't understand how a 3DS is still a portable gaming device when you can no way play one while on the go unless you're sat on a bus, plane or train..
In terms of Cave Story - seriously, it's a remake, and it's not a 3D game. It can't be all that 3D when there's nothing 3D in the original, unless they make a completely different game with the same name and no real new ideas because Pixel is milking a dead cow which has already been cooked up for burgers.
