Costco secures new Nintendo Wii bundle shipment

mistermostyn | December 31, 2007 | News | Wii

If the Xmas rush has left you shorthanded in the Wii department, then Costco might be able to help thanks to a new shipment of Wii bundles, which include an extra Wiimote and Nunchuk and a copy of Brain Age for $345 USD. But how will Nintendo react following its recent 'we don't approve of bundles' comments?

According to a reader of videogame blog Kotaku, who sent in the above snapshot by way of proof, Costco’s latest tantalising Wii bundle includes the Wii itself, an extra Wii Remote and Nunchuk controller, and also a copy of popular edutainment title Brain Age. And, all of this can be yours for a mere $345 USD.

Bundling is what wholesale stores usually do, and been doing for as long as I can remember.
