Nintendo starts selling digital games in Russia through Yandex

Nintendo has started selling games as digital downloads through Yandex.Money, the largest electronic payment service in Russia.

Nintendo opened its eShop for Russian gamers two years ago. Now it is taking a further step in addressing that market by selling digital distribution codes for its games through Yandex.Money in Russia and other Eastern European countries. Gamers in those countries can use the service to buy games for the Nintendo 3DS handheld and Wii U home console.
