Amazon Have Started Selling Nintendo Products And Digital Download Codes

Amazon, one of the biggest online retailers known worldwide made the decision a few years ago to not sell ANY Nintendo products first hand, people were able to buy the consoles through 3rd hand retailers but Amazon wouldn't allow anything to be sold by Nintendo themselves. No reason why was given and when Popular Magazine "Kotaku" interviewed N.O.A CEO, Reggie Fils-Aime, he also refused to comment on the situation.

Well I guess everything was worked out between the two company's because now fans are able to buy consoles, games and now digital download codes for both WiiU and 3DS via Amazon 1st hand. Nintendo now has their very own digital store front on Amazon.com and games previously only available through Nintendo's virtual console can be picked up on the website. A massive library of games ranging from the original Ocarina of Time to the highly anticipated Mario Maker are available through the online store and sell for the RRP.

I personally think this is a great step in the way of Nintendo, allowing their fans to take part in holiday sales for games and consoles and also granting a way of buying and redeeming games without being at our consoles

Games are bought AND redeemed on Amazon by logging into your Nintendo eSHOP account, don't worry if you don't quite understand the process, Amazon have provided a little tutorial to walk you through it.
