GameCube Bundle Info

ToysRUs.com says it will sell GameCubes only in bundle form.

In a Reuters news report appearing at C|net, the Toys 'R Us online component has said it will sell GameCubes only in bundles. That doesn't necessarily mean bundles will be mandatory at the physical Toys 'R Us stores or any other retailer, but it's interesting nonetheless.

Nintendo of America has already announced that they will not be promoting hardware bundles at the retail level, although stores can still do bundles if they want to. The difference between this policy and Microsoft's is that MS is promoting Xbox bundling by promising extra marketing dollars to stores that bundle the Xbox with at least two games (one third-party) and one peripheral.
