We long for the days when pack-in games were standard with every console purchase, and though the Wii bucks the current trend by including Wii Sports, Nintendo has yet to do the same with the DS; the Metroid Prime: Hunters demo hardly being comparable to the NES' Super Mario Bros. 1 or even the Genesis' Altered Beast bonus. Of course, there've been limited edition bundles, but the pricing usually reflects the added title's value.
So it pleases us much to see Circuit City offering a free game to anyone who buys a Nintendo DS Lite this Memorial Day weekend. Pay the regular 129.99 price for a polar white, coral pink, or onyx black handheld, and the store will throw in a copy of either Sonic Rush or The Sims 2 -- we suggest you grab the former. If you don't have the time to take advantage of the deal and drive to your local Circuit City before tomorrow's end, the offer also extends to online orders!

That's all fine and dandy, if you ignore the Mario Kart DS bundle or the Nintendogs bundle. The price was a bit higher for those two, but still less than to buy either game separately. Heck, the Mario Kart bundle even came with some cool Mario Kart decals to put on your DS.

I wouldn't exactly say they were cool. I got that bundle. The red DS is cool, but those stickers are pretty childish.

Amazon has had DS bundles you could get Metroid Prime Pinball or Animal Crossing. The price wasn't higher either.
