If you're looking to buy one of the new DS Lite bundles, we hope you have extra money! And, depending on which one you buy, very little shame. EBGames/Gamestop, the masters of making you buy things you don't want in exchange for the privilege of buying something you do want, are offering both the Nintendogs and Phantom Hourglass DS Lite bundles online-- with "exciting" "extras."For $239.96, the Zelda bundle includes not just the DS and Phantom Hourglass, but Final Fantasy III and Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker as well. Buyers of the Nintendogs bundle are even worse off, and not just because they're stuck with the Nintendogs bundle. For $249.96, you get the pink, pawed DS, three different versions of Nintendogs, and Petz Dogs 2. It's perfect for people who only like one kind of game, but like it obsessively.

Assuming it's no more than the cost of buying them seperately the Zelda bundle seems alright. They're all good RPG(-ish) games. But the Nintendogs bundle is a total rip-off since you're getting 3 versions of the exact same game and a poor knock-off.

This is actually a crappy deal. The Zelda bundle by itself (the DS and Phantom Hourglass) is only $150, FF3 is $30, DQM is $40, and Phantom Hourglass guide is $20. Total for all is $240, so you're not actually saving money. However, if you buy them all at BestBuy you save $3, since DQM is only $38 and the PH guide is $19.
I actually waited in line for black friday at Circuit City and got the Zelda bundle for only $140.

Pfft. Personally I think the Phantom Hourglass one would be great since I love the other two games. Nintendogs... not so much.
