Call of Duty: Black Ops II launched for Wii U in November 2012. Nearly two years later, the game has received a new map.
Nuketown 2025 has been out on other platforms for a very, very long time. Just recently though, it seems that the content finally came to Wii U. Players can obtain Nuketown 2025 by installing an update on their console.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.

GameStop has Ocarina of Time Costume Pack for Hyrule Warriors, Amazon gets Twilight Princess
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 13 Comments
During this week’s Hyrule Warriors Direct, Nintendo announced that retailers would be offering exclusive costume DLC. We now have a little bit of news about which stores are offering the different pre-order bonuses.
First, the Ocarina of Time Costume Pack is confirmed for GameStop. This includes Ocarina of Time themed costumes for Link and Zelda.
Based on a listing on Amazon Canada, the retailer seems to be offering the Twilight Princess Pack in North America. The same rule applies here: you’ll receive Twilight Princess themed costumes for Link and Zelda.
My guess would be that Best Buy will have the final Skyward Sword Pack DLC.

New Hyrule Warriors details cover the latest stage reveals
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 2 Comments
This week’s issue of Famitsu has another update on Hyrule Warriors. While Monday’s Hyrule Warriors Direct beat the magazine to the punch with new character reveals, there is an update on some other portions of the game such as stages. The official website provides more information as well.
There are three stages detailed this week worth mentioning: Gerudo Desert, Temple of the Sacred Sword, and Palace of the Mind. Each is an original stage for Hyrule Warriors, though they share the atmosphere of Zelda games. For instance, Twilight Princess has the Gerudo Desert, and the Temple of the Sacred Sword is a close image of the Lost Woods in A Link to the Past.
