What do you get when you type "android list avds" after this step?

Hmm sounds bad. There really should be a manifest.ini in the
google_apis-3 addon, e.g.:

$ ls -1 ~/sdk/add-ons/google_apis-3/
docs
hardware.ini
images
libs
manifest.ini   <---- that one
samples

Try unzipping your SDK folder again, maybe yours got corrupted somehow.

That seems to be from Eclipse. FYI we pushed a new version of the
Eclipse plugin that has a UI to create AVDs now. Try to update the
plugin.
