The eShop has just updated and New Super Luigi U add-on content for New Super Mario U has now gone live.

It’s cost on the eShop is $29.95, a much fairer price than the $59.95 Nintendo are asking for it at retail here. Although you do get a nice green box.

You will need either an update to version of New Super Mario Bros U installed on your Wii U to download it or have the disk in the drive. If you buy the game at retail you do not need New Super Mario Bros U.

New Super Mario Bros U updated yesterday with a new patch with support for this add-on and the Wii U Pro Controller.

New Super Luigi U is very similar to New Super Mario Bros U but has had all of the courses in the game replaced with 100 hundred second and harder courses. Luigi like in Super Mario Bros. 2 also has lower traction and his higher more ‘floaty’ bounce.

Anyone picking up New Super Luigi U today or waiting for the retail box?
