We’ve known for some time that The Denpa Men 2 is set for an overseas release. Its launch on the North American and European 3DS eShops could be just on the horizon if a new rating from the OFLC is any indication.

The Australian ratings board added an entry for “The Denpa Men 2: Beyond the Waves”. So yep, the game has a quirky new subtitle and the rating is hopefully a sign that we’ll be seeing it soon on the eShop.

Nintendo just sent out a new press release highlighting upcoming third-party games for the Wii U. In a way, it’s just a bunch of fluff, but there are two important points included.

First, Splinter Cell: Blacklist has finally been confirmed for Wii U. The game will launch on the same day as the other console versions in both North America and Europe.

Rayman Legends’ new online challenge mode download has been reconfirmed, too, which offers four levels including “Murfy’s Dungeon”. Players can count on daily and weekly updates as well as leaderboards. This is planned for late April.

Look for the full PR below.

Square Enix registered a new trademark in Europe and also nabbed a domain name for something called “The Mad & The Monstrous”. Of course, no such title has been announced by the company thus far. Square Enix Japan is listed as the website’s holder for what it’s worth.

Just as with any licensing agreement, there comes a time when a certain content distributor is o longer legally allowed to sell the content they licensed from a particular third party. Such a day has come for Rock Band creator Harmonix, as they will be yanking the much-loved ‘Metallica’ from their store– or at least, one pack of their songs that was released for players to download.

“Metallica Pack 01” (including such hits as ‘Ride the Lightning’ and ‘Blackened’) is now unavailable from the console-accessed ‘Rock Band Music Store’, and soon it will also be removed from first-party marketplaces as well. More songs will likely follow suit going into the next few months or years, but Harmonix says they’re looking to extend an “overwhelming majority” of content licenses they have to minimize the legalese’ effect on their customers.
