Serious crack downs on PS3 have forced scalpers to turn to Wii for profit.

That's actually a pretty good bundle, nothing I wouldn't want, plus I get to pick the 4 games. I'm probably going to just pick up the Wii, an extra controller/nunchuk, Zelda and Raving Rabbids at launch though. MAYBE Red Steel.

I'm going to Nintendo World Store Saturday, they're going to have demo kiosks set up, finally! Or maybe, I'll just wait until Monday and go at lunch to avoid the crowds...hmm...

Looks like they sold about 2500-3000 bundles. Not bad, though I thought that a giant company like WM would have more on hand.

Meh, there should be plenty. The parts are basically upgraded GC parts, so they are easy to come by. We should see plenty before Christmas.

yes, i'll buy mine at costco in march

I haven't found Costco's console price to be all that great. Yeah they're cheaper than buying everything separately, but they usually come with accessories I don't want and/or games that I could buy used for much less money.

Huh, that's not that bad of a bundle. You get the console, extra wiimote and nunchuk, and 2000 Wii points. Plus you get to choose four games. Personally, if/when I get a Wii, I probably would get the same stuff except maybe two games as opposed to four. Does anyone know how much/if any you save with the bundle though?

EDIT: Heh, no you don't save any money now that I crunch the numbers. But what's up with the price of the Wii points card? 2000 for $24.18? I thought it was supposed to be a penny a point?

I didn't know you could buy used games on launch day... :)

The whole point of costco buying is the return policy... if your wii goes crazy like 3 of my ps2's did (or the recent x360 problems) you can exchange it without a hassle.
