Wii U eShop

Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 1 Comment

EarthBound finally launched on the Wii U eShop last week, and its arrival was greeted by much fanfare. There was just one peculiar aspect about the game’s launch though: a fairly high price point.

Nintendo had set the pricing of SNES titles on the Wii U VC to be $7.99. EarthBound costs a little more, coming in at $9.99. It’s not the biggest difference in the world, but it is enough for people to wonder why EarthBound costs more than the average SNES release.

Unfortunately, you won’t get much of an answer out of Nintendo. When asked for a comment, the company would only say:

“As for EarthBound, Nintendo sets prices in the Nintendo eShop and Virtual Console on a game-by-game basis. Different games will be offered at different prices.”
