Ahh... Pearl. Home of every kind of future landfill fodder disguised as tech (and even some legitimate products), dubious feature lists and even more dubious included bonuses for almost 30 years. At least the cover girls aren't dressed like discount Playmates anymore.
I like how on this page they aren't specifying the "car racing game" and "full version of well known flight simulator" packed in with the "Multi-Gamestation^Plus". I think I can hear the creaking of this thing's cheap, hard plastic through space and time. It seems like the VR headset and 3D glasses weren't shipping enough units, given that this is at least the second time they discounted them:

But they made up for it by driving up the price of the "Multi-Gamestation^Plus" a little.
