One you've seen (twice), and offers a Wii plus the kitchen sink, the other, you haven't, and offers you a DS and a bunch of girly crap.

Here's the Wii deal. $425 gets you a Wii, two games (Mario Super Sluggers and King of Clubs), two extra Wii Remotes and three nunchuks. If you're in the market for a Wii, extra controllers, a novelty sports game and a piece of shovelware, it's perfect.

Here's the DS deal. As you can see, it's for the ladies. The small ladies. It's got a a Metallic Rose DS, two games (Nintendogs and Purr Pals), a Princess Peach "Bling Kit" and a Princess Peach case. All for $200.

Of course the machine needs to be under warranty (three years for red ring defects, pretty good bet it is) and you should keep your receipts in just such an instance. But if you (or, if it's a gift, whomever gets it) lives near where it was bought, this is loads better than waiting the two weeks to a month to get your refurb unit from Microsoft's brain replacement facility.

This doesn't surprise me, actually. I recall my Dad swapping out a defective chainsaw at a Walmart once, no questions asked. He explained that it was more profitable for them to take on the hassle of a defective, warrantied unit, figuring the customer satisfaction benefit would definitely bring them back and result in word-of-mouth recommendation. Which is what's happening here. So, good on Sam's Club. Anyone know of any other retailers who'll do this for free, tell us in the comments.

Because it's not. Not even close.

According to an update to the offer at Black Friday Ads, the bundle will now be priced at a more sane, but less eBay flippable $425. Maybe. We'd advise referring to your hard copy of the Sam's Club circular for final, official, accurate, confirmed, solid and straight shootin' pricing.

Nintendo Wii Family Bundle - Console, 3 Wii Remotes, 3 Nunchuks and 3 Games at Sam's Club - $425.00 [Black Friday Ads]

Sam's Club [Black Friday]

We checked out Sam's prices for the games after receiving the news, and they do offer a nice little discount. The PS3 and Xbox 360 version are going for $55.55 ($83.22 for the collector's edition), with the PS2 and PSP versions marked at $36.33, the Wii version at $46.66, and the DS version a bargain at $26.66. All this plus a free cover replacement while you wait? None too shabby.

Update - Just got word from Walmart that they'll be printing covers on-site as well, though the games are regular price and you don't get a Walmart card with your picture on it - that's reserved for managers.

This is a new thing for Sam's Club so it will be interesting to see if people will actually attend a midnight launch there as opposed to going to a game store or other brick and mortar store. We have also been informed that Sam's will soon be stocking Rock Band at just under $150 (something tells me it will be 149.99) which is about a $20 cheaper than most places. If you're a Sam's Club member, keep an eye on their website as they will be adding more options for pre-ordering SSBB and other titles in the future.

The offer is exclusive to Sam's Club members and can be purchased online although no price was given. Beginning Black Friday from 5:00 AM until 7:00 AM, the bundles will be sold at a limit of one per customer, but after that members can purchase as many as they lke until the supplies run out. This is a one time deal and once they are gone, they are gone.

Good luck Sam's Club members and try not to find yourself crushed under a one hundred pound tub of gummi bears in the fray.
