This is nothing new.
Gamestop did this with the Zapper and the Wii Wheel. And it has done it with software (DS games Kirby Ultra Star and Starfy come to mind).
The only difference this time is that it is the only retailer doing this -- rather than one among many taking an additional mark-up on the item.
That's why it is getting attention.

PS -- Best Buy locally has plenty of them at MSRP. I am surprised it did not add an upcharge as well since I am in a secondary market and some items are increased a few percent over the regular price.
 I am Mario.I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble. Wii Friend Code: 1624 6601 1126 1492 NNID: Mike_INTV |
