Super Smash Bros. Wii U – Mewtwo and Lucas Reveal Trailers
Ah, the beauty of the DLC-era. What happens when the extensive roster of popular characters in a game like Super Smash Bros. just isn’t extensive enough You wait till they release more characters as downloadable content, of course While some may grumble at these reveals as just another cash grab, Nintendo is showing us here that Lucas and Mewtwo are not messing around on the Wii U. That teleport dodge by the legendary pokemon looks all extra kinds of fun to use/horrible to play against.

Mario Kart 8 – 200cc Reveal Trailer
Going boldly where no Mario Kart has gone before, this trailer punches the engine into overdrive with the introduction of 200cc, the fastest and most difficult race class to ever grace the Kart series. This is where DLC is really beneficial in my eyes, and not just because it’s free (but free always helps)! Taking a racing game that’s already established great success and making it go faster Methinks it’s time to fire up the WiiU once again.
Sunset Overdrive – Dawn of the Rise of the Fallen Machines Trailer
Detecting a theme yet With DLC firmly in the center of this week’s crosshairs, we take a look at the newest, loudest, and most tongue in cheek addition to Sunset Overdrive yet… and that’s really saying something. Old action film clichés are ripe for the picking in this story add on, but with the success of Mystery of the Mooil Rig (the first piece of DLC in the Sunset season pass) I can only hope this this add on builds on this game’s success. Plus, you basically have a Super Monkey Ball-caliber force field that bowling balls robots. How does that NOT sound fun?
