New In-Store Mechanic for digital downloads (Europe)
Posted on 10 years ago by Kirara Koneko(@KiraraKoneko) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
23rd September, 2014 – Nintendo has unveiled details of a more convenient mechanic for selling downloadable versions of Wii U and Nintendo 3DS games at retail across the UK, Ireland and Germany, with further European countries following in the future.
The new distribution platform allows European retailers the opportunity to sell a range of Nintendo digital codes via a tablet-based solution. In turn, customers will be able to visit participating stores to conveniently purchase redemption codes for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS software, including download exclusive titles and add-on content, using this new purchase mechanic. In-store, once a customer has chosen a game to purchase, the retailer will use the tablet-based service to issue and print out a unique code that will allow the purchaser to download the specific content to their Wii U or Nintendo 3DS device via Nintendo eShop.
The new distribution platform is already available at LEGOLAND Germany in Günzburg, Germany, and also recently launched in the UK – on 17th September – at the Reading branch of Smyths Toys Superstore.

Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire getting UK demo
Posted on 10 years ago by Jarop(@gamrah) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
UK Pokemon fans rejoice, a demo for Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire will be heading your way from October 15th. Demo codes for the game will be distributed from select retailers, either online or through various Nintendo Zones. At present retailers involved in this promo include GAME, Amazon, Smyth Toys Superstores, ShopTo and the Nintendo UK Official store. It’s worth noting that the demo content is a self-contained experience and will have content that is completely separate from the main game, like the ability to Mega Evolve a Pokemon and transfer it over to the main game when it drops shortly after.
Dutch fans will also get a chance to get their hands on the demo during the autumn tour on October 11th and 12th, so it looks like the promotion won’t end there!
