The franchise seems to be keen on making every current Nintendo console home, however, as it has now been revealed that Cave Story 3D will be coming to the upcoming Nintendo 3DS sometime later this year.
The version of Cave Story en route to Nintendo’s newest handheld will be quite similar to previous installments - because it is a direct remake of the original (but the graphics are easily the best the series has ever seen). All characters, weapons, and basically everything else in the game, will be in 3D - and not just popping out of the screen 3D either. These are full on polygons baby - and it’s a radical jump from the original.
Cave Story dev Daisuke Amaya was recently interviewed by Games Radar about his latest game Cave Story 3D.
Concept art has been released showing off the game’s new appearance. Check it out below:

On top of significantly improved graphics, Cave Story 3D will also add easter eggs for hardcore fans to find as well as utilizing an even longer story than the original game. This bonus content, added with the fact that the game has been completely re-hauled visually, is sure to draw in purchases from fans of the original - and those who have yet to even play the original.
Cave Story 3D will launch on the Nintendo 3DS this summer.
