Why? Who cares, it's a fun deal.

 Walmart

I've seen a lot of strange pairings in my day -- remember Rob Lowe singing with Snow White at the Oscars? -- but this might be the most random tech bundle of all time. Fortunately, it's kind of a cool one, too: For a limited time, and while supplies last, Walmart has the Arcade1Up Space Invaders arcade machine and Battlefront 2 for Xbox One for $149.99. I've seen the former on sale for that price before, but never with a console game included. (For what it's worth, Battlefront 2 currently sells separately for about $20.)

See it at Walmart

Arcade1Up makes a variety of three-quarter-scale retro arcade cabinets. This is arguably the lamest of them all, as it offers only the one game (though it includes both the color and black-and-white versions). Other cabinets have at least three or four different titles.

Still, it looks really cool and makes a great addition to any game room. And, hey, if you own an Xbox One and don't already have Battlefront 2, well, there you go.
