Apparently it's got a $9.99 pricetag though.

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

and just when I got my $30 eshop credit for buying fire emblem awakening and SMT IV


now when the heck is the Capcom Dungeons and Dragons collection going to be on the Wii U?

[CavZee]

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!

[noiseredux]

still trying to figure out why Wii/3DS VC can't also get this...

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

Now to watch the value of my carts drop.

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?

O_o

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.
