  Getting a new console is great! Top of the line hardware, running the freshest games, is always something to behold. There is only one thing that can make getting a new console better and that’s when you get it in a bundle. Getting a bundle lets you customize your initial console experience, with things like more or less hard drive space, a game, even a couple of games sometimes, special editions and more. This fall has a whole bunch of awesome Xbox One Bundles and you can get them right here at Best Buy.
