The '$10,000' Madden PSP Entertainment Pack
In order to offset the cost of printing posting an alternative cover for (most versions of) Madden 09, it looks like EA had to raise the price of the new Madden NFL 09 PSP Entertainment Pack to the tune of: $10,000! Graciously, Circuit City has elected to eat a full $9,800 of that cost, leaving pre-orderers with a much more manageable price tag. [Note: Circuit City has since removed the pricing error.]
Retailer bloopers aside, the Madden Entertainment Pack (MSRP $200) includes: a very blue PSP, 1GB Memory Stick, Madden 09 (game), download code for Beats ("game"), and -- what's this? -- a movie ... on UMD (they're collector's items you know).

Hell will freeze over the day someone pays 10 grand for a Madden bundle.

j.howlett @ Aug 12th 2008 2:09PM
the price would make what that lady in singapore got taken for seem like a steal. it was singapore where they tricked the lady into paying way to much right?

I work for Circuit City and the reason why the price is such is to stop employees from selling timed releases early. They raise the price $9999.99 (max price in the system) to redflag purchases.

That's really smart...in a really retarded way...I guess.
Ignatius @ Aug 12th 2008 3:18PM
Well, that's Circuit City for you.

The funny thing is, someone WOULD probably buy it. If there are people in the world that purchase a red light on the iPhone for an outrageous price, then there are those would would buy a blue PSP with Madden for $10K.

I really want a blue PSP, but $10,000 is too much.

ANOTHER PRICING CONTROVERSY!

Hi I'm Al Harrington of the Ten Thousand Dollar Sony Madden Playstation Portable Entertainment Pack Emporium! Thanks to a shipping error, I am currently overstocked on Ten Thousand Dollar Sony Madden Playstation Portable Entertainment Packs, and I'm passing the savings on to YOU!

Are you the same Al Harrington that's the president and CEO of Al Harrington's Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man Emporium and Warehouse?
Jonah Falcon @ Aug 12th 2008 2:40PM
Oh, whew. I'm glad they dropped the price by $9900. It was a little out of my price range.
Maverick Saturn @ Aug 12th 2008 2:46PM
For that price, I expect it to pour cash on me every time I score :)
The Rabbid @ Aug 12th 2008 2:56PM
Awful Mart does that all the time. "original price $34340,0000. You pay $9.99"
reiji @ Aug 12th 2008 3:25PM
"Game"? How is Beats not a game? By that logic, Gitaroo Man isn't a game - they're pretty similar.
Mike @ Aug 12th 2008 4:32PM
This sux cause I just preordered it at Walmart last week full price, and they won't let me cancel my order.
BPM [MSN: BPMdotEXE @ hotmail.com] @ Aug 13th 2008 1:17AM
I think I'm gonna get this. Blue is my favorite color. Then I can sell the game and UMD for some cash back (and maybe the Memory Stick, too, since I already have a 1GB stick and an 8GB stick).

It was a good thing I was close to the bathroom, "I NEARLY SHAT MYSELF!"
