Activision is offering a special deal on its annual Skylanders release this year, which may just help entice Wii owners to upgrade to Wii U.

According to the Skylanders official Twitter feed, purchasing the game for Wii will receive a bonus code upon its release that will enable the download of the Wii U version. Both the portal and figures are universal, so if and when you do get a Wii U, you can simply take your characters over. The game progress itself would probably reset, however.

So, if you still have a Wii, you may want to check this out. If not, don't worry, as Trap Team will be released for other consoles across the board when it arrives this October.
