Namco Bandai launched a Tank! Tank! Tank! basic pack on the Japanese eShop. The game comes with some content, but you’ll need to purchase a lot of DLC to get the full package.

Take a look at the video above to see how DLC is handled on Wii U. The process may change slightly from game to game, but on the whole, things should be similar.


The following Rock Band Music Store songs will be made available on January 8:

Does the Wii U’s early 2013 lineup seem a bit… light? More on that later, but Nintendo UK’s James Honeywell would tell you otherwise.

Honeywell highlighted Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge, and Sing Party while speaking about the Q1 2013 lineup. He also said: “I’m sure E3 will be another great show and there will be lots of fantastic titles to come.”

“As well as a strong launch line up, we’ve also got a really strong Q1. We’ve got a lot of fantastic titles – Monster Hunter, Ninja Gaiden, Sing Party, fantastic titles for everyone. And beyond – I’m sure E3 will be another great show and there will be lots of fantastic titles to come.”

Mortal Kombat 9 was NetherRealm Studios’ first true crack at a fighter following its transition from Midway Games. Adam Urbano, the company’s senior producer, feels the team learned a great deal from the project.

Urbano explained what the staff took away from Mortal Kombat 9 in an interview with NowGamer. He also revealed that Injustice: Gods Among Us, NetherRealm’s upcoming game, will offer more content.

“On one end of the spectrum, we learned what works, and on the other, what not to mess with. We’re retaining a lot of the key features like the amazing 3D graphics set on a 2D fighting plane, the need for tournament-level depth, and the success of having a ton of content available for players of all experience levels. We’re planning to have more content in Injustice than we had in MK9.”

Urbano also discussed the importance of improving DLC and netplay:

“We also paid a lot of attention to the things we know we need to improve. We weren’t happy with how we handled ‘compatibility packs’ for DLC play, so we have a whole new system that ensures all players get the content they need. We also spent two years focused on netplay, realizing that nothing matters more for network play than launching with solid, great fundamental netcode.”
