Nintendo has promised you better 3DS games and it seems

It looks like most of the third-party titles are not just mere ports but new versions designed to take advantage of the 3DS' glasses-free three-dimensional display. Of course, there is no telling if or when any of these titles will make it to North America (a few has just been confirmed by Nintendo America), but here are the most likely ones that will land in our retail stores soon.
(Note: Most dates/prices cited below are for the Japanese market only; we will update with North American news as they become available. Due to the fact the entire press conference was conducted in Japanese, I had to rely on Kotaku's Brian Ashcraft for his English play-by-play. Thanks, Brian!)
Newly unveiled titles that will likely be Japan-only:
I think the Monster Hunter 3G and Monster Hunter 4 will really redefine the handheld console as more than a digital babysitter for children and get more serious gamers interested in the system. Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai sounds like it makes innovative use of the 3DS' AR feature (there's more to the console than just glasses-free 3D) so I may have to find a way to bring that title over to these shores. Any particular game catches your eye?
