Nintendo of America posts colossal portable release schedule for 2011 and beyond

Nintendo of America has unveiled a big old release list for the remainder of 2011 and beyond, which should perhaps quieten those suggesting there's not much on the horizon for the already ailing 3DS.

The DS line-up is quite a bit thinner, but four first-party titles mean that those who haven't yet upgraded have something to look forward to in the coming months.

Highlights? We're promised Kid Icarus, Super Mario 3D, AND Mario Kart over the "holiday period", though the latter could slip into next year. Animal Crossing is still TBA, but we wouldn't be at all surprised to see a pre-Christmas release for that.

As for third-party biggies, Namco Bandai's Tekken 3D should be another fine addition to the handheld's already strong line-up of portable fighters, while Metal Gear Solid 3D Snake Eater will likely be a popular stocking-filler this Christmas.

Elewhere, we're tipping Konami's Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights and Sega's Crush 3D for dark-horse greatness, as well as Nintendo's own quirky 3DS eStore title Picture Lives!
