Circuit City wants all of your money


Circuit City is currently advertising, in giant, bold letters, that they have Wiis for sale! Isn't that great? We still know people who are looking for them, after all. But unless you're looking to buy a ridiculous bundle to the tune of $550, you might want to look elsewhere.

Circuit City's bundle, which includes an extra Wii remote and nunchuk, as well as at least four games, does have one leg up on some other bundles we've seen: the games from which you choose aren't terrible. That is, it's possible to pick four mostly decent titles from the six they have on offer: Super Smash Bros Brawl, Super Mario Galaxy, Mario Party 8, Wii Play, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2008, and Carnival Games. Hey, at least shipping is free! ... if you want to wait two weeks for your bundle, that is.

Of course, we know Circuit City is desperate to move all this Wii product, which is why they're requiring such an incredibly expensive bundle. They're clearly overstocked on Wiis and games, which is why they're trumpeting the fact that they're actually available, right? It couldn't possibly be the lure of an extra three hundred dollars per sale.
