GameStop Offers Details For Wii Bundle

This past Tuesday, GameStop made public that it would soon offer pre-orders for Nintendo’s Wii console. Though no specifics on price or what the package consisted of was made available to the public, it was mentioned that whatever deal they were offering would be priced no higher than $700. Today, GameStop has released those details…and the news isn’t pretty.

Here’s what gamers can expect to see should they decide to purchase a Wii bundle online:

Nintendo Wii Console (includes 1 remote controller, 1 nunchuck, cables, sensor bar, console stand, and Wii Sports game)
Wii Memory SD 1GB
Additional Wii Remote Controller
6 Games:
Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
Trauma Center: Second Opinion
Red Steel
Marvel Ultimate Alliance
Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz
Madden NFL 2007
12 Month Product Replacement Plan
Game Informer Gift Subscription

The bundle will sell for exactly $694.88 plus tax and handling, keeping in line with GameStop’s earlier promises not to exceed the $700 price tag. Though the price may certainly scare off some, expect to put up a fight with others around the country trying to secure themselves a console come the 19th. Good luck!
