Is this package being sold in stores? If it is I've not
seen it here in Canada. Also, is it sold in one package or
is it some sort of rebate or mail in coupond kinda thing?
I hope it's not the latter, b/c it'll prolly take forever
to get the games.

Ahh I was looking at the core with the three pack and they wanted
$229....In fact I just telephoned them to verify it.

No, you get the games at the same time you buy the system.

Try Electronics Boutique (Fairview Mall in Scarborough) - They're
usually pretty up to date with these kind of things.

The deal is IN Canada! I just got a Saturn at EB for Cdn $289 + taxes and
that includes Sega Rally, VF2, Daytona USA, and Virtua Cop. Of course I
also got the Mad Catz light gun at the same time. Just can't play Virtua
Cop w/o a light gun!

Cheers!

You can also try best Buy. They're advertising it in this
week's sales ad.

My TRU has the $199 3 pack w/the core, or $229 3 pack w/another vf2.

From what I am gathering here, mileage may vary.

Just waiting for VC2 w/gun right now at some other stores, where Media Play
wants $65 and doesn't have it yet, and neither does TRU (don't know the
price), EB had it.. but for the price of $79.99! Whew.. I was hoping the
package deal would top out at $70 ($40 game, $30 gun), makes me more concerned
about EB getting bigger. Make me pay $5 extra to get it earlier, ok.. but
$10? $15?? C'mon..
(because of course EB won't match a price with the game not in stock)

Scary how bad it might get if we don't have other routes for our games..
Love their return policy.. ok, get $5 or so more for that.. but not $10
or $15 anyways.. its not like they aren't simply repacking it. Ah well.

Wow, ok, they are already out of the bundle.. unsure of when it will get back
in. Hey Sega, make sure all the stores get *stocked*!!
In fact I guess it was gone shortly after the time I originally saw it..

Suprisingly they even took the bundle advertisement at my TRU.. are they
then selling the systems *w/o* the free games in the meantime? Hmm..

I'd *really* like to see the new black controller for sale.. I can get the
same ones in grey at TRU.. but since *everything* else I have for it is black..
well except the light gun(s).. (no import purchase here).
