Nintendo is after retailers, they increase their eShop offerings for Wii U, 3DS

Nintendo is set to sell its Wii U games and 3Ds throught the eShop. They will also sell them through the high street. Concerned about the money wasted in "inventory," the company will let consumers choose where they get their fix from. The first two games to get the treatment will be New Super Mario Bros 2 and Onitore Brain Training (working title) for the handheld, with more expected in the future. As more and more consumers are transitioning to downloads nowadays, the company will be keeping their business partners happy by giving them permission to sell activation codes to the digital titles. But this may mean that you will have to go down to Gamestop and back.
