what's the "player's choice game"???

can we choose among several, and if so, what are the choices?

I'm guessing its the same kind of package like FS and BB.

Anyone know what type of bundle Costco is carrying these days?

Also, since the Toys R Us deal appears to be their own bundle (rather than a Nintendo one) is there any chance of substituting the Zelda game with something else?

gamecubes were $59.99 at microplay on boxing day (1 controller, no games)

Just called Toys R Us - no substitutions on the Zelda game as they get a credit back from Nintendo. I think my 5 year old is too young for it. Oh well.

Nothing on Costco.ca - anyone know about in-store?

Other deals on a gamecube bundle?

:eek:

WOW, really?? that's an amazing price.... i must've missed out on it, or maybe my local microplay didn't have that promo (the microplay store opened around christmas time)


----------------------------

btw, i looked at the upcoming TRU sale flyer and the "player's choice games" didn't specify exactly which games, so i guess its whatever player's choice title is available at ur local TRU store... u get to pick, that's kinda nice >_>

Brand new? FS had it for 89.99 I think... Damn, I missed out >:(

Picked up this bundle on the weekend. It rang up at $119.99. I thought it was a mistake but a friend bought it yesterday and same thing.

The Zelda games also includes a free gamecube/gba link cable (worth $15-$20).

I'd say based on the above it's a hot deal!

[duckdown]

yeah, brand new for $59.99

they tried to make up for it by absolutely GOUGING you on the prices of the GC games (new ones @ 69.99, used ones at 32.99 or something) i had to almost put up a fight to just plain buy the system with NO games.. the cashier was trying SO hard to get me to take a game or two with the system (LOL).. I just walked across the center to EB Games and bought a wack of cheap ones there
