it's a no lose for Wal Mart. at the end of the day, they aren't losing $100. at the least, they pay only $100 for each 360 arcade anyway (retail price to wholesale price is generally double, so that would be the case if it holds true for game systems, I honestly don't know), so they break even on that cost with every sale, make you buy an extra $100 in the future (which you'll probably spend over and thus pay them more for the transactions just to use it up) and make a profit on your other $100 plus of transactions while getting rid of their stock of 360's. sounds like good business to me.
