Speaking of gaming values.  Why don't we see more lower priced gaming acessories?  Same places have Wii stuff (bat, tennis racket) for like $5 each.  At WALMART you have to buy this whole kit plus its NERF and that seems grade school.  My friend bought a controller for way under $10 at some dollar store.  Gotta be thinking about us out here, times are tough!!!

Hmm, $349.00, isn't it pretty expensive? LOL!

I'm sure these things will smoke the stores!

Thanks for posting this early!

considering the economy at the present stage Walmart would have more gaming value customers if they brought back their lay-away plan with fees if necessary

Mike - At Sam's Club, we carry the NERF item. We could have sourced a lower quality item, but that is not what we do for Members. We really work to place quality in the 1st position.

Johnny - Thanks. It's not early, it is an exclusive, so we can talk about it now!! Enjoy!!

Shorty - Do not think Sam's has lay-away. Do not believe it is something we are looking at implementing. Thanks!

Joe,

How does Sam's Club decide which two games to bundle with the system? I am interested in buying this for my younger cousins, but I have no idea if these two games are something they'd like. I'm not up to speed on the latest stuff. They are are boy and a girl, ages 9 and 6. It looks like this is a good deal. Dell is selling the console and the two games for $299, but then the Guitar Hero game and guitar bundle is another $100!

Thanks Traci. We work with our good partners at Microsoft when working on these bundle. If you are not sure if they would like the games, check a few things. The ESRB puts ratings on games so you can see if the content is age appropriate (kinda like a movie rating). It does not tell you if the game is fun complicated, enjoyable but just if it is age appropriate.

In addition, there are some great gaming sites like Joystiq, Kotaku, Destructoid and IGN where you can get reviews of the games. Sam's Club's website also allows Members to review items on-line so you can see what other folks think as well. Ultimately, everything is a guideline and the final decision is yours as the consumer. Let me know if that helps.
