Apparently it's got a $9.99 pricetag though.

Update: Here's a Nintendo Direct mini that contains the announcement amongst other things:

My credit will go towards this as well now. Though I'll have to juggle playing this as well as SMtIV now. Lol!

Never played EB before so I'm pumped

$10 is still a hell of a lot cheaper than the $180 the cart still goes for!

I'm not complaining but you know someone will.
"Just a ROM dump", "Should've been up on VC years ago" blah blah blah.

Apparently they're releasing the strategy guide online and it will be optimised for the gamepad!

Load the strategy guide onto the Wii U web browser and play the game simultaneously?

Cool. I'll get it sometime since I have no other games on my WiiU. But I'd prefer it on 3DS!

True...but $180 is still less than the price of a WiiU...It will be interesting to see what - if any - effect the release has on the value of the carts.
