Yes, all games are renedered in 3D, but they are displayed on a 2D device (the LCD screen). This device is probably a set of steroscopic goggles. Basically shows each eye a different image, which tricks your mind into seeing "Solid Snake popping out at you". Kind of like those stupid red/blue goggles but a little more high tech.

Yes, it is a stupid idea - it is for this one game and you can't carry it around. But as you mentioned, it's only for the cinematic scenes, so won't need it for actual gameplay. But at least it's something new/original.
