This product is like new. At NexWave Games, like new means:
Additionally, all discs at NexWave Games are carefully inspected and assessed for quality. When discs arrive, we do not accept any that are so badly damaged that they are unlikely to work. We only accept discs with light scratches at most. Discs with scratches are then treated in our professional disc repair machine. By warming the disc and polishing it with soft brushes, these machines can remove a very thin layer from the disc. This removes the layer containing surface scratches and improves the disc’s readability. This ensures the disc works properly, even on consoles with ageing lasers that have difficulty reading games! Great news for the player.
LEGO City Undercover for Nintendo Wii U
LEGO City Undercover is an open-world adventure in which police officer Chase McCain hunts escaped criminal Rex Fury. You drive through districts, take control of vehicles and follow fifteen special assignments filled with platforming, combat and building. Disguises each grant a skill: a robber opens safes, a firefighter puts out flames and a construction worker uses tools. Between missions you search for collectibles, cross rooftops and discover activities throughout the city.
Broken objects provide bricks for Super Builds, while vehicles offer fast travel and short challenges. The city combines an original police story with parody and LEGO humour. The Wii U version uses the GamePad as map, scanner and communication screen and is for one player. Revised PlayStation 4 and Xbox One releases add local two-player co-op. Controls and player count are therefore described separately for each edition.
This Nintendo Wii U release of LEGO City Undercover was checked separately for controls, presentation and delivery. The product title determines whether a regular, budget or No Manual edition is supplied. Historical network features are not promised as available; local matches, campaign or career on the disc remain the core of this version.
Region and language
Our Nintendo Wii U games are PAL editions and come with a Dutch or English box, unless stated otherwise. By default, you receive the version for the European market. We note it in the product details if the region is different or the box is in another language. In almost all cases, the game is playable at least in English, and often in the other five common European languages too.
Manual
LEGO City Undercover for Nintendo Wii U includes the manual unless the product title states otherwise. If the booklet is missing, the title says “No Manual”. This lets you see before ordering whether the game comes with a manual.
The manuals included with our games usually contain at least English and often around six European languages. The exact languages vary by edition, so Dutch is not always included. The booklet explains the controls and the main rules. You can use it to check how to control the game, which actions are available and how its different features work.
The history of LEGO City Undercover
Rather than a film licence, TT Fusion used the LEGO City world and built a city around vehicles, police work and disguises. Chase McCain took the lead after an earlier short animation. The story parodies police films but uses original locations and characters. Wii U GamePad functions were integrated into maps and investigation from the design stage; later editions had to move those actions to a regular screen and controller.
TT Fusion originally developed the game as a Wii U exclusive, released by Nintendo in Europe on 28 March 2013. Four years later a revised edition followed for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC. That conversion removed mandatory second-screen functions and added local co-op. Missions, characters and collectible structure remained recognisable, but the 2013 Wii U disc and 2017 reissues are not completely identical.
