I'm currently working as an activities coordinator at a summer camp-type workshop, and one of the events we have is a video game(Super Smash Bros & Mario Kart) tournament. In previous years, we gave away Nintendo DSes as the grand prize, but they have become rather outdated. I'm trying to figure out what we could replace them with, something in the $60-80 price range.

Anyone have any ideas of what we could use for a prize? Most of the people will be in high school, with a few in middle school; what the thing is doesn't matter so much as that it gets them excited. Needs to be appropriate for a summer camp setting though.

Gift card to Best Buy or similar electronic store?

Controllers, controller and console skins, accessories, games...

A copy of the game you just won at seems appropriate, with similar accessories (the Wii wheel if it's the Wii Mario Kart) if you're looking to jack up the price.

Old systems would be cool. N64s are pretty cheap at used game stores these days. Could come with a copy of the game and whatnot.

EDIT: Dr. Epic, I loathe you.
