Got a email a little while ago…
This Thursday evening (CST), November 9, your opportunity to get in on the excitement arrives when the Wii Bundle becomes available for purchase online at GameStop.com . You’ll get the best games, accessories and more in one convenient package delivered right to your door - all for under $699 plus tax and handling.
Quantities are extremely limited and there will be a limit of 1 Wii bundle per household, limited to US delivery only. Ordering a bundle does not guarantee shipment at launch and orders will be shipped on a first-come, first-serve basis. The bundle will be removed from the site as soon as we have reached our expected quota.
Wow, 700 bucks for the bundles? Thats almost triple the cost of the unit. And preorder now, because maybe, just maybe, they will get one on launch day.
This is pretty comical that they are doing this for a console that for all outward appearances and speculations is going to be in healthy supply.
Yeah… let’s preorder now… it’s not like you’ll just be able to walk into your local Target and pick one up on launch day…right?
Does that include like 1 of everything you could get at launch? $700 on a $249 (right?) console? Yikes.
Dammit, if only I’d predicted this in my blog.
