that's a link to the premium SKU but they all say the same thing; discontinued by manufacturer: yes.  I guess they're going to announce something big for GDC.  I thought the recent 360 shortages were because they were getting rid of old 360's for a more reliable one (there was a rumor about a new 65nm GPU?) but apparently they're also going to change up the bundles a lot.  sounds very exciting.

I don't know if that's a mistake or what but with the supply problems, and tech issues from earlier versions, it seems to me that MS is gearing up for a new model and/or price drop.  The consumers have shown MS that they don't give a damn about the Arcade SKU so maybe they're also going back to 1 or 2 models.

Either way, MS is obviously up to something.

Did you have to buy a PSP slim or PS2 slim when they came out? 

STFU, Sfag.

shouldn't they still sell the adapter for the people who already have a 360 but who might want to go wireless?

I don't think they'll ever do that now.  too easy to charge up the ass for the difference between a 'casual' and 'hardcore' sku.  I'm 90% sure nintendo will also do something like that next-gen.
