  • Step 1

    Access the Nintendo eShop from your Wii U console.

  •  
  • Step 2

    Add funds to your Nintendo eShop account using a credit card or Nintendo pre-paid card by July 28, 2013.*

    • Add $50-$99.99 to receive a promotional code for $5
    • Add $100 or more to receive a promotional code for $10
  •  
  • Step 3

    You'll get an email with your Nintendo eShop promotional code on August 2 - just in time for the Pikmin 3 release on August 4!

    (Be sure your Nintendo Network Account email address is correct by viewing User Settings on your Wii U system.)

THIS IS FOR THE USA ... NOT SURE ABOUT ANYWHERE ELSE....

Yeah, but to get 10 bucks, you must put in no less than 100

Why are they so eager to increase eshop sales?


Because they make nothing on used game sales.

Psssh no one sells a Nintendo game once they buy it :P

 

Your logic only applies to other companies games...

 

They must have other ulterior motives

I might take advantage of this. I'm already planning on buying Pikmin 3 and at least one other game by the end of the year. :P

I dont think so, with the delux deal, you only get money after you buy, with this, you get money just for putting money in your wallet.

Well I would have jumped on it if I was getting Pikmin day one but the jury's not out on that one yet, besides, I wouldn't be able to even put a downpayment on a cheeseburger until mid August ... hehe

I'd try it, but I'm scurred it's not going to get me anything here in Europe.
Sure I'd spend 100 euro on the eshop eventually, even when I'm not going to buy any full game there unless it's under a tenner.

If Nintendo didn't tie digital content to console and instead tied it to the user account it might be worth it. That and if they had bothered to provide a faster and bigger internal storage capacity in the first place.
