Yacht Club could consider cross-buy for Shovel Knight
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 2 Comments
Yacht Club Games is open to the idea of cross-buy for Shovel Knight. Just don’t expect it anytime soon, as it’s something the studio would have to consider it first.
Yacht Club said on Twitter:
@PostMesmeric Sounds like a unique promotion at the moment! Something that's certainly in our minds just the same though.

Cross-buy is a much-welcomed feature on Nintendo platforms, but it has a long ways to go. It’s only available in Europe at present (with one game thus far), and the functionality seems to be limited to buying the 3DS version first and then picking up the Wii U edition for free.
