Nintendo says cross-buy feature has “been talked about”, could be considered if devs show demand
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 5 Comments
Steam and PlayStation platforms both implement a cross-buy feature. As an example, if you purchase an indie title available for both the PlayStation 3 and PS Vita, you’re only required to pay once in order to receive copies for both platforms.
Unfortunately, Nintendo doesn’t offer similar functionality for its own systems. If you buy a game from the 3DS eShop, you don’t receive a corresponding copy for Wii U. You’re forced to pay a second time for what essentially amounts to the same game.
While cross-buy isn’t something that Nintendo currently offers, “the idea’s been talked about.” That’s according to Dan Adelman, the man in charge of all things indie at Nintendo of America.
He told Nintendo World Report:
“We don’t have anything new to announce on that, but I believe that the idea’s been talked about. So it’s something we’re definitely up to considering if there’s enough demand from developers, but nothing to announce for right now.”
