Note while I was browsing Fatwallet and came accross this deal. I know I don't like promoting Fatwallet. I personally haven't confirmed it but here is there link:

The credit goes to mj4318 from there if its true, he says there were 5 on clearance there.

Unlike Japan and Britian I believe console makers still have contracts here that forbid discounting of hardware from one chain to the next.

Unless CompUSA has decided to break their partnership with Nintendo, highly unlikely given the DS and upcoming Revo, I find this suspect.

I bought my Metroid Gamecube Bundle for $49.xx at Sears at the end of 2004, as did a number of other people across the US.

I remember reading somewhere that Nintendo removed the price restriction a while ago...don't know if it was true though.

 

[Demise_Angel]

Confirmed 49.99 at Brighton. Just called. Got a couple of left they said. Braintree is out of stock.

no go for me in san diego

 

[dwsscs]

No go for me , but they did confirm that they did have some on clearance. Just didn't know the price , you know how employees are. I was at the Southlake store, in Morrow, GA.

I still think the MP7 bundle is a better deal

Just because of the extra controller?

Yeah I read somewhere that nintendo took off the restrictions for the Gamecube in the United States- They bascially told retailers that they could sell them for whatever they wanted.

I agree-- this isn't much of a deal considering the MP7 bundle.

I agree but its great for a gift if you can find one. I haven't seen the MP7 bundle since Xmas here.

This is why YMMV deals belong in the regional section.
