"If you buy Squids Odyssey on Nintendo 3DS, you will be getting the Wii U version for free. Euro downloads just confirmed this."
This is the first videogame offering this cross-buy promotion on Nintendo consoles.
So, basically the three major steps Nintendo did in terms of digital purchase recently:
1) The NNIND link between 3DS and Wii U, that offered the chance to share your money budget for the eshop among the two consoles
2) Pushmo World with cross-promotion: if you purhcased one of the previous 3DS episode of this saga, you are allowed (for a limited period of time) to buy the Wii U episode with a 30% discount (if your 3DS and Wii U share the same NNIND)
3) Allow the cross-buy among the two consoles (probably once again, if your 3DS and Wi U have the same NNIND)
Happy about this. I hope more games will offer this possibility. Among all, I really hope Shantae and the Pirates Curse.
EDIT:
This is from NoE PR:
