Disney Infinity's Marvel-based sequel is coming next month on every console except for the Wii, which has since been left in the dust by its successor, the Wii U. As a result, Disney is letting players download the original Disney Infinity for free on the Wii U eShop, where its base and figurines are backwards compatible with the Wii game.Of course, you can't play the game without the physical base and at least one Infinity figure, so if you don't already have the starter kit this won't help you much.
