Epic discount? Save US$ 230,541.01 when you purchase Wii Sports Resort

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!

WTF?! - Image 1


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:
