For the ones that dont know, walmart is having a build your own Xbox one bundle. This includes for $500 kinect, forza 5 download and your choice of a second game.
This sounds like a great deal(Im not much into racing games but still). The first thing that came to mind was that is to bad that is only walmart. The second is that they are trying to one up nintendo. The only thing that could make this bundle perfect is that they make the kinect optional even if not for $100, lets say $425-460 it is still a very good deal and then it can be really named the build your own. The best thing unlike nintendo is they are leting you choose any game from the XONE library, not just a select 4. WHat if Im not interested in thouse 4?
Another thing is that the current bundles MS anounced do not seem that appealing. I dont think anyone will buy a XONE for madden and sunset overdrive is a new game from devs from another console, so it could do well, but I would not hope so. If they anounce a Halo:MCC could be great but I dont think it ill atract anyone who was not already planing on purchasing the console anyways.
The reason I make this topic is that is a very good incentive going for the hollidays and all 3 should be doing something similar even if you think the ps4 does not need it, when this kind of competion comes on the holliday and the ps4 has no bundles they will be outsold by both MS and Nintendo.
For nintendo what I would recomend is something quite easy. An improvement of the MK8 bundle. When buying any of the new realesed games like Hyrule wariors, sonic, captain toad and even Smash Bros(This will do well on its own but I think it still needs a little push), you get your choice of a dowload game, but this time all over the world not just 4 for the US and 10 to Europe, it should be 10 for the whole world. Notice I did not mentioned Bayonetta2, I think that already including Bayonetta 1 remaster is a good deal on its own, but again if it dosent seem like it will sell well by all means include it. Another thing is to remove that extra Wii controler and accesories, most people already have multiple of thouse and this just increases the price so it was a bad move.
Since Sony are at such a lead it could be toughf to see a good bundle. The most obvious would be a free game of Little Big Plannet or Driveclub, But I highly doubt thouse would have a great impact. So they should really spice things up or they might loose the holidays.
Please let me know if you have any sugestions for some good holliday bundles any of the 3 could apply or if you just disagre with me.
It takes genuine talent to see greatness in yourself despite your absence of genuine talent.
