    Walmart offering $50 gift card with Wii purchase

    Sad that you missed all the Black Friday sales? Walmart wants to take advantage of that feeling of being left out, with a series of December sales and price drops. The most exciting offer: for one week (from December 5 -12), every Wii will come with a $50 gift card, effectively dropping the price to a ridiculous $150.

    The Nintendo Wii Console includes:

    Nintendo Wii console
    One Nintendo Wii Remote
    One Nintendo Wii Nunchuk
    Nintendo Wii Sports Game Disc (5 games: Baseball, Tennis, Golf, Bowling and Boxing)
    Power cord
    Sensor bar
    Standard AV composite cable

    Clay, are you working for Walmart's marketing department now? Your doing a lot of advertising for them lately.



    By the way...
    That is a hell of a deal, and I appreciate the heads up. I will be picking one up for the kid.

    Same here. To replace the one that was stolen this summer.

    Too bad they still won't have a TV to play it on.

    The Wii will still cost $199, but you get a $50 gift card.

    You can spend that $50 on an extra controller and nunchuck.

    I suspect Walmart "over purchased" on WII units and after they didn't sell enough last week they now need to fire sale the rest or risk having a $99 sale in January.

    The Wii has 480p graphics. That's as good as a progressive scan DVD player and requires the component video cable.
