Just like with Skylanders, you no longer need to buy the Wii U version if you already own the game on the Wii.

For the first time ever, Disney Infinity is available in the Nintendo eShop – and it’s free to download! While you’ll still need a Disney Infinity base and Disney Infinity figures to play the game, families that purchased the starter pack on Wii can now enjoy the game on Wii U with their existing accessories for free!
Enjoy online multiplayer and more fun ways to play! Use your Wii U Game Pad to create your own worlds in the Toy Box, or activate missions and unlock toys in Play Sets. Discover three Play Sets, including Monsters University, Pirates of the Caribbean, and the Incredibles:
- Play as Sulley in his early student days in the world of Monsters University
- Plunge into adventure as Captain Jack Sparrow in the Pirates of the Caribbean and find pieces of the Kraken’s Bane
- Activate the powers of Mr. Incredible on a quest to save the world from Syndrome and his super villains
Create your own worlds in Toy Box! Mash up unlocked toys from the Play Sets along with Disney and Disney/Pixar characters to invent just about any adventure you can imagine. Learn more about the digital version of Disney Infinity for Wii U.
Please note: A Disney Infinity Figure and Base are required to play downloadable game. Compatible figures and base are available in the Disney Infinity Wii packaged version and the Disney Infinity Wii U packaged version. Additional Disney Infinity figures sold separately at retail stores. File size for digital download is 9.15 GB.
