According to the official Injustice: Gods Among Us Twitter account, downloadable content is coming to the Wii U version after all. DLC is expected to arrive this summer. That’s fairly surprising – to say the least – given recent statements from Warner Bros.

Here’s the tweet in full:

@secroner We expect DLC for the Wii U version of Injustice: Gods Among Us to be available this summer. Stay tuned for more details.

It’s nice to finally have a confirmation that the Wii U will be getting Injustice DLC, but you have to wonder why this content wasn’t out alongside the other versions. Hopefully these kinds of situations won’t crop up as often going forward…

Just Cause dev has no Wii U plans, says dev kits are collecting dust and install base is too small

Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 0 comments

Chances are that we won’t be seeing any games from Just Cause developer Avalanche Studios on the Wii U anytime soon.

In an interview with Norwegian site PressFire, founder Christofer Sundberg said that his only dealings with the console is through Skylanders Giants, which his children play. Although Avalanche does have a Wii U dev kit in its possession, it’s collecting dust, and the company doesn’t have any Wii U plans. The console’s install base is too small, according to Sundberg.

Sundberg also noted that it has been difficult to get in touch with and cooperate with Nintendo. It was only through Avalanche’s publisher that the studio was able to get through.

Sundberg finished by giving some advice to Nintendo: reach out to developers like Sony.

“I think Nintendo has much to gain by going the same way as Sony, by stretching out a hand to the developers so as to include even more, says Sundberg. If it happened, would be developing felt more enthusiasm, and perhaps had wanted to make something cool and good. In Nintendo’s case, it could have acted on the use of GamePad controller for the Wii U. – roughly translated Sundberg quote”
