Warning: Lots of sarcasm ahead.

GameStop is holding the biggest markdown in gaming history! From the original price of US$ 230,591, you can get a copy of Wii Sports Resort and the Wii MotionPlus for only US$ 49.99 - save US$ 230,541.01! If this isn't a steal, I don't know what is!

We've all seen retailers make outrageous markups just so they could make their discount prices look better, but this has to be the biggest blunder we've seen in a while. I just checked it out - it's still up, which makes me wonder if they did it on purpose.

Heck, for US$ 230,541, you can get your own bloody mini-sports resort going, or is that what they're really selling? Or is this a special collector's edition bundle that comes with an actual sports resort? This one totally made my day.

This one's the real deal:

• Release of Wii MotionPlus set in motion, Wii Sports Resort to follow
  

Via GameStop
