Renegade Kid’s Jools Watsham has confirmed that existing owners of the 3DS version of Xeodrifter will get the forthcoming Wii U eShop port for nothing. The game will be cross buy, which means that when you purchase one edition, you get the other entirely free of charge. Huzzah!
.@realkeithmartin $9.99 for Xeodrifter on Wii U (same as 3DS), plus Cross-buy. Current 3DS owners get free Wii U game.

According to Watsham, the game has been submitted for Lotcheck and should launch very soon. It will cost $9.99, the same as the 3DS edition.
Sadly, not all of the news Watsham had to report on Xeodrifter was positive. According to the developer, the first week of sales for the European version of the 3DS version didn’t even match the day one sales in North America:
Xeodrifter 3DS European sales update! WEEK 1 of EU sales barely equal to DAY 1 of NA sales. Yikes. Not a good start. 🙁

Hopefully this doesn’t mean that European players will miss out on future Renegade Kid releases.
