eShop purchases on Nintendo’s website allow for gifting
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 13 Comments
Nintendo launched a new feature on its North American website today that allows for the purchase of digital first-party Wii U and 3DS titles. You can choose to have codes delivered via email, or have software automatically downloaded by signing in with a Nintendo Network ID.
Those who opt for the former option can choose to gift their purchase to another Wii U/3DS owner. Check out this excerpt from Nintendo’s official FAQ:
Can I give a game to someone else?
Yes. Once you complete your purchase, we’ll send you an e-mail confirmation with a download code for the game. (For pre-orders, we’ll send you the download code on the day the game is released.) The download code can only be used once, but anyone can redeem it. If the game is a gift for someone else, provide them with the download code so that they can redeem the game on their system.
Be sure to read the full FAQ here if you have additional questions about eShop purchases on Nintendo.com.

South Park tables will be released for Zen Pinball 2 on Wii U
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment
Yesterday, Zen Studios announced that South Park tables will soon be coming to its pinball platforms. These tables were confirmed for practically every device imaginable, ranging from consoles to mobile. The one platform that was left out, however, was Wii U.
There is at least one encouraging piece of news to report. While the South Park tables won’t be available for Wii U this week, they’re still on the way to Nintendo’s console – there’s just no release date yet.
Zen Studios noted on Twitter today:
@DepresinG No release date yet, will post when we have it.
