    Wow…Wii U Skylanders Bundle for $198. Appears to come with Nintendo Land if the image is correct.

      After E3, you damn sure better be tempted.

      Toad's first game, Mario Maker, Smash, Starfox. So many awesome games. So many fun ideas.

    • idasfa38 on 13/06/2014 - 13:30

      What's the difference between the premium Wii U and the basic? From all I can see, it's storage and a few accessories.

      • zzyss on 13/06/2014 - 14:28

        You also get a discount in the eStore.

        • idasfa38 on 13/06/2014 - 14:35
          +2

          Is it worth it? How much is the discount?

        • Elijha on 13/06/2014 - 15:21
          +1

          10% back .. but ( something I didn't realise earlier) you earn points for your purchases then once you get enough points you get a voucher … ie you only get store value back for every set of ~$70 spent.

          Bonus rewards ends this year also I hear. with most games being cheaper in-store it's hard to justify digital 1st party titles.

          this, a black controller from beat-the-bomb (deal today) and the Mario Kart 8 and bonus game off makes a Wii U look pretty dam good.

        • denpol85 on 13/06/2014 - 15:23

          Until the end of this year, you get approximately 10% of your eShop purchases back in eShop credit. I bought Kart digitally and got $7 back as a voucher. I'm pretty sure I can give the voucher to someone else to load up their eShop balance.

    • Sleeken on 13/06/2014 - 21:48

      Far out, I was tempted after E3 (instead of a PS4 or new PC) but I think this will sway me. Haven't had a console since the gamecube!

  • rbaggio on 13/06/2014 - 13:08
    +7

    PS4 Console + Watch Dogs + Assassins Creed 4 for $548 isn't bad at all.

  • DrKazanovaKK on 13/06/2014 - 13:12

    That bundles at a crazy price, sure beats Targets from a week or so ago, only downside it doesn't come with Mario Kart 8 (plus free downloadable game via redemption).

    Really what they should be bundling it with is an External 1Tb or 2Tb Hard Drive, as you're really only left with 3GBish.

    "The Wii U Basic Pack has approximately 3GB available for data storage and downloads. The Wii U Premium Pack has approximately 25GB available for data storage and downloads."

    • zelda707 on 13/06/2014 - 13:18
      +1

      only downside it doesn't come with Mario Kart 8

      You can buy mario kart separately for $58 so it still comes out cheaper

      • sleet on 13/06/2014 - 13:27
        -2

        No, it comes out even or worse. Target had Nintendoland in their bundle as well.

        • zelda707 on 13/06/2014 - 13:30
          +2

          this comes out to be $256 vs $269 at target

        • Roary on 13/06/2014 - 13:32
          +5

          No its better.. Targets deal was $269

          This one is $198 + $58

          and it looks like you get an extra triple pack of figures worth $30 thrown in!!

        • sleet on 13/06/2014 - 13:32
          +1

          sorry, the skylanders has the nintendoland as well here. cheaper here, you're right.

        • cantstanzya on 13/06/2014 - 15:39

          Better price but the target deal was for MK8 on day of launch. Worth the extra imho.

        • Donatello on 17/06/2014 - 17:17

          The reality:

          There will always be a better somewhere else
          (down the track, from another retailer, etc).

          I was lucky enough to get a Wii U Basic Bundle with Mario Kart 8 from Target a few weeks ago.

          The extra Skylanders figures isn't exactly enough to convince me, even with the cheaper price. Not that I've even played it.

          A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.

          The $13 difference, I'd all it a convenience/enjoying Mario Kart tax.

          Not willing to face the stampede when the Toy Sale starts (I've been to a few of them over the years, I'd rather be at home enjoying MK8).

          I would ONLY buy a second bundle so I could have a spare gamepad controller. Will wait till Christmas. ;)

        • SilentBob on 18/06/2014 - 19:23

          worth $30 to who? certainly not anyone here.

  • Spawn Peak on 13/06/2014 - 13:25
    +3

    $44 for Tomodachi Life - damnit, just bought that for $48 there the other day.

    Great price for the Wii U Skylanders Basic bundle. Again, I bought that two weeks ago with MK8 for $279.

    • Ventak on 13/06/2014 - 13:35

      Some of those prices are even for games that have an RRP of $70 (MK7, Luigi's Mansion etc.)

  • MasterNoob on 13/06/2014 - 13:31

    Great price for those Barbie Dolls!

  • sleet on 13/06/2014 - 13:34
    +7

    A word of advice - Target, Big W etc are not gaming specialist so do not have large quantities of games/bundles compared to EB etc, even though they're cheaper.

    So get in first thing in the morning.

    • Ventak on 13/06/2014 - 13:37
      +1

      If you have to, just price match at EB/JB.

      • sleet on 13/06/2014 - 14:02
        +1

        I thought the price match policy was if there is stock in the stores? If you're lucky the store person won't call up BigW etc.

        • [Deactivated] on 13/06/2014 - 15:31

          True, however EB doesn't match bundles. If it's not bundled with anything else they will, but if it includes out-of-the-box items they won't.

        • montorola on 13/06/2014 - 15:53
          +9

          Pfft, don't give EB your money, support Big W so they give us more deals like this in the future and not ripoff prices from EB.

        • wtfnodeal on 13/06/2014 - 19:04
          +1

          some games @EB on sale prices are not bad but you just don't buy their RRP.

        • Garagesale on 13/06/2014 - 19:50

          My local one has matched bundles in the past so its certainly worth asking.
          Tried recently at the melbourne central a few months ago and he went out the back and pretended to call qv bigw, came back 5 min later lying saying they had no stock. I walked accross swanston st and bought the bundle of which they had 10. Eb can be hit or miss but worth asking especially if you want sime carrots on your loyalty card.

        • Garagesale on 13/06/2014 - 19:52
          +1

          Where eb excel is their preorder reliability. They are great at getting stick in on day 1 if you wanna play asap. You can always return for refund in 7 days or when your net order arrives.

    • Hiphopopotamus on 13/06/2014 - 13:37
      +6

      this is very true.

      i recommend just getting them online and paying for shipping (generally $5 for metro), it also starts online earlier than in store.

      • denpol85 on 13/06/2014 - 13:46

        If it's more than a certain amount, can you pick up in store and avoid delivery costs?

        • sleet on 13/06/2014 - 14:07
          +2

          I think Big W orders over $40 has a click and collect option. So you probably can with this deal. Not 100% definite.

    • Employee[Deactivated] @ BIG W on 13/06/2014 - 17:32
      +1

      This is true. When the Mario kart 8 and wii u bundle was released, we only had 4 in stock

  • denpol85 on 13/06/2014 - 13:45
    +2

    Definitely a better deal than Target or EB since you can get Mario Kart separately for $58 plus you get an extra 3 pack of figures!

      LEGO Movie Metal Beard's Sea Cow - 70810 for $309 has to be the bargain for me. Only problem is that currently the only online order option is layby which means waiting until November!

      Guess it will be off to the store for me on Thursday.

      • mathew42 on 22/06/2014 - 15:46

        I've been able to successfully purchase LEGO Movie Metal Beard's Sea Cow - 70810 in store for $309 today. A couple of points:

        • The model wasn't on display - apparently they keep the expensive sets locked up in a room
        • Price in the printed catalogue was $328, but Manager was happy to do $309 when shown the online price.
        • You need an everyday rewards card to access it early (although a nice smile might also work)

        Now the kids have something to work towards for the September holidays (otherwise I get to build it).
