reports.

Dubbed the ‘Arcade’ bundle, the deal will reportedly offer a Core 30 console, a memory card, a wireless joypad and five Xbox Live Arcade titles including Pac-Man Championship Edition and Uno.

The price is expected to be $280 – the same as the current US RRP for the normal Core machine. It has also been suggested that this bundle will see the end of the standalone Core unit.
