Discounted GameCube bundles? You Bet!
« on: November 17, 2002, 05:12:16 AM »
Metroid Prime releases tomorrow.  Let us do your hunting, and get yours for less!

Sunday's ad circulars came with a load of surprises, namely several stores offering money off of Metroid Prime when purchased with a GameCube system.  Here's a rundown of where you can get these deals, for how much, and WHEN.


(Note: Prices below do NOT include local sales tax.  Please factor that into the purchase price.  Also, the release dates are estimates.  You should probably call ahead.)


Toys 'R' Us is offering a $20 discount when you purchase Metroid Prime (normally $49.99) with a GameCube (normally $149.99).  Total Cost: $179.98  Toys 'R' Us is listing the "expected in-store" date as 11/20.


Best Buy is offering a $20 savings when Metroid Prime is purchased with a GameCube system.  Total Cost: $179.98


Target is offering Metroid Prime for $19.99 when purchased with a GameCube.  Total Cost: $169.98.  Target will have the game on 11/20.


Circuit City stores are offering an instant $25 gift card with the purchase of a GameCube system at $149.99.  Additionally, Metroid Prime has a $20 off savings when purchased with the system.  Total cost: $179.98 + $25 Gift Card.  A suggestion ... Metroid Fusion is only $25.99, getting Metroid Fusion for 99 cents isn't a half bad prospect.  Again, Circuit City will have the game on 11/20.


This is most certainly not a complete rundown of what stores might have a bundle deal, nor does it take into account any regional or "mom 'n' pop" deals that you might encounter.  But if you haven't pre-ordered and can't find the game on Monday, you could do yourself a lot worse than saving yourself some cash.
