Wii and PS3 Shipping With Free Game Each

[insi]

Originally reported by GameWorld network and then confirmed by Toys Ass-Backwards Arrr Us' obnoxiously noisy website, the Wii and PS3 can be preordered with a $50 deposit and will ship with a free game. GWN speculates that Nintendo's game will be Wii Sports:
Wii Sports is basically a bunch of smaller mini-games, some of which have origins as tech demos. The idea that Nintendo decided to collate these into the Wii Sports game and include them with the Wii therefore is not so hard to believe.

Yab and Aaron both tipped this one. Well done, men. Sno-cones all around

I'm sure there'll be a ton of deals like this closer to the release date.

i can see Nintendo doing it, specially with a tech demo like Wii Sports. but Sony? i don't buy that, more like a 20$ off rebate toward your first game title purchase with system upc & receipt. What game could Sony even include? SCEA/SECJ does not make many great 1st party titles and the ones they do will never be given away as consolation prizes, not new release titles anyway.
