Nintendo announced they would be remaking their third generation Pokémon games for the Nintendo 3DS earlier this week, but sadly, had no footage to show of the game at all.  This weekend, Nintendo finally released the first official footage of the games.  It’s not very much, but it is great to see how good a game originally designed for the Game Boy Advance will look on the 3DS.

Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire are coming November 2014 exclusive to the Nintendo 3DS.

Due to illness, all of the PS4 content we promised would be coming this weekend had to be put on hold for a little bit.  Don’t worry, we still have plenty of PS4 related content coming for the rest of the week starting today!

To kick off this extended week of PS4, Maniac unboxes one of the PS4’s launch titles, Knack.  Developed by Mark Cerny, the father of the PS4, the game takes advantage of the PS4’s advanced physics system, as you take control of a robot which has the ability to get bigger and bigger with the more debris it creates.

Knack is out now exclusively for the PS4.

If there was one reason to get a Playstation 4 it would be to play inFAMOUS Second Son.  The game’s Collector’s Edition sold out almost entirely after launch, but I was able to snag a copy for myself.  Is it worth the price?  Let’s see what’s in the box.

My gosh, look at all the time that we’ve spent so far.  The day has wrapped and I still have tons of more PS4 content that I want to produce.  I think we’re going to need to move this into overtime!

inFAMOUS: Second Son is out now exclusive to the PS4.
