3DS and Wii U get cross-buy … for one game in Europe

Sometimes when you buy a game for PlayStation 4, you also get the PlayStation Vita version as well. This is called cross-buy, and it’s not something that Nintendo has ever had for its home console and handheld systems … until now.

If you buy the strategy role-playing game Squids Odyssey for 3DS, you will get the Wii U version at no additional cost. This is the first game to have such an offer on any Nintendo platform. This means gamers no longer need to worry about which platform is the best for their purchase since they’ll get Squids Odyssey for both.
