Well hey, that's cool. It'd be great if when you buy a gain, you get it for both Xbox and PC. It gives you an extra option to play on, and it's free. I'm hoping Ninten can do the same with this and their console and handheld next time.

I think this will be Nintendo's plan also will be to have one eco system for both their systems since it boosts the install base big time.

If you think about it by MS bringing their eco system together they already have an install base of over 20 million xbox gamers on their store and however many that is/plan on using their windows store. Its like apple with ios, when people look at ios they dont say "ok the is like 20 million ipad owners and 10 million iphone6 users and 20 million iphone 5 users etc they look at the ios install base as a whole this is what MS plans on doing and is also what Nintendo plans on doing imo and this is also why i see Sony launching their own cross platform Digital Store also.

Yeah, that sounds like the plan they may be going for with the NX, and if it means cross games and cross buy is possible, then I think I'm okay with that. It's nice to be able to have it on both consoles rather than choose one over the other or buying the game twice. And it could be seen as combining them as one unit than seperate ones.
