Oh wow, I just bought ZombiU (E-Shop) ....this can't be true...I really hope it's a mistake.
That's not true. If you delete a game, you can redownload it from the eShop.

He's wrong, you can download anything you bought, whether it was removed or not

Yoshi's Cookie begs to differ.
It's probably gonna be gifted for 1 year Wii U anniversary promotion.
Really? Every other game that got removed you can redownload as far as I know.
Edit: has there ever been 100% confirmation that Yoshi's Cookie is gone from redownloading on the Wii shop channel?
Nintendo said:The Virtual Console title Yoshi's Cookie (500 Wii Points) will be discontinued at 9 a.m. Friday, Oct. 18, 2013. If you'd like to purchase this title or have already purchased and would like to redownload, please do so before this time. We apologize for any inconvenience.
The game has been delisted. When you search for it, it does not appear.
It also does not appear when you go to Titles You've Downloaded.
In Account Activity, Yoshi's Cookie and the transaction you've made involving it will still appear in your history. Clicking on the name of the game, however, will send you to a page called Details, saying only the following:
“The software you have selected cannot be purchased or redownloaded at this time. Due to certain circumstances, this software is no longer available.”
Found a thread online at Nintendo's own forums discussing this, from a few days ago (How did nobody on GAF notice this sooner?)

Yeah, this doesn't look like it's ever coming back.
:::Hugs his physical copy:::
Why does it show 3DS games? Can you do anything with it?
Why do they show 3DS games on the Wii U eShop?
Isn't Mario 3D Land coming to Wii U in a couple of weeks?
Super Mario 3D Land is a 3DS game. If you look at the picture, even though it's not in English, you can clearly see it mentions 3DS.
You're confusing with Super Mario 3D World, the Wii U game.
Nintendo being stupid again. Jesus.
It's a first party launch title, how can it not be there?
Cross fingers for an updated version with more games...coming free as a download to all current Nintendo Land owners.

So my digital copy is a collectors item now?
The rental thing? Oh god I hope not....Who wants to bet that they're splitting it up piece-meal like Wii Sports?
just in case: there's also trailers and stuff for WiiU games on the 3DS eShop guys

That would also mean it's gone if you have to get a new Wii U or have your console repaired for some reason. Jeez, that's bad.
Between this and next gen games becoming astronomical in size, I'm becoming steadily more adverse to buying digital on anything other than Steam.

If you own it digitally, mind loading the eshop and seeing if it still shows up in your download list?

Naah, sounds very un-Nintendo like
I would've said the same thing, but the Wii Sports Club thing was the same way.

There's always been a 3DS section in the Wii U eShop, it only displays information about the game. I guess it's just promotional. No cross-buy stuff, don't get excited ;p
i'm usually on nintendo's side on most of the digital arguments but this is INFURIATING
I have a very bad feeling this is going to be the start of Nintendo decreasing their efforts to support their own console, just like in the GameCube days.. god those were depressing times..
Hopefully I'm just being paranoid..
Wii Sports is/was more suited for the license split up thing.
Nintendoland, not so much. It's a gamepad demo showcase and people would not buy it in chunks when they know there is a full retail version out there.
Unless they revamp it but then the disc version would need a free update or dlc... No idea HOW they would do this.. Hmmm
Club Nintendo Land? ;p
Seems like the 3DS entries would just get in the way if I'm only trying to search for Wii U games. Hopefully you can filter them out.
