Wii Goes Black and Never Goes Back

[Aura Guardian]

Wouldn't mind having that. But I own Wii Sports Resort and 2 motion plus'. Still...if they release a Red Nintendo Wii, then I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

The black Wii's people have already seen were supposedly "limited edition", so it looks like the trial went well and Nintendo have put them into full production.

 

[Brain_Cleanser]

I'm perfectly happy with my white one.
But I must admit, it looks freaking sweet.
I won't do anything to get a new one though, since it creates a nice duality with the black colossus PS3 that sits next to it on my shelf.
(Seriously, I feel like my PS3 could eat my Wii if it was bored. Also, yes yes, Innuendo.)

But anyone who didn't get a Wii during the white run should definitely get this. I love my Wii and would recommend anyone to try it in a heart beat.

There's nothing new about this on my side of the pond - Black Wii's have always been packaged with Resort at Gamestation for the last year or so.

As have the whites, thinking about it?

 

[Danpascooch]

Woah! The Wii might go HD!? Talk about Hi-Tech!

Could you imagine an HD VIDEOGAME!

lol

 

[Magnalian]

That's funny. Australia's had black Wii's for several months now. Not that it makes all that much difference, mind you; I still have absolutely no desire to invest my money in one.

I don't really get how this is news, we've had them in Europe for awhile too.

 

[RatRace123]

Damn you Nintendo, you are a genius at knowing that things that are black are infinitely cooler than things that aren't.

Surely the legendary Wii HD is coming whenever Michael Pachter and the legendary Gametrailers.com say it is coming. I don't see what it would have to do with Miyamoto or Nintendo.

 

[dex-dex]

Have we missed something here?

Black Wii's have been out in Europe for at least a year now. Although putting all the controller's gubbins in one box is new, good for Nintendo.

take into consideration that any product that has been out in japan first will always come to North America last unless it is made in the US

or they can be dicks like apple and not release stuff for another couple months i am talking specifically Canada

The only WiiHD we'll ever see is Nintendo's next-gen console, and who knows when that will come out. Re-releasing a Wii with a simple HD upgrade makes no sense at all from a business point of view.

That is sooo cool looking.

But id still rather have a Metroid Wii [http://www.wiiwii.tv/wp-content/uploads/2007/09/a-metroid.jpg]

I want one! I've been thinking of buying a wii for ages, is that modded or can you actually buy it?

i think its a Modded Wii but, i think the guy who made it can sell you the shell.

Ill haft to look it up.
But once i move out and need another Wii....im thinking about this one.

 

[likalaruku]

Black should have been available from the start. White & yellow are the nastiest colors anything plastic can be.

They could always be smartasses & start releasing Wiimotes in brown & peanch >

"Jeffrey! Is that a dildo in you hand?!"
"No mah, I'm just playing with my Wii."

That! Maybe in Dark Samus version?

[Hayate_GT]

it's so smexy...y wasn't this always around?

 

[soapyshooter]

Sexy...

Edit: At the risk of being put on probation for low content. MOAR stuff

I still wouldn't get one. Parent's might, they want a Wii really bad.

 

[Rodger]

Amazing. Just today I finally purchased the Monster Hunter Tri + Classic Controller Pro bundle with the black controller and thought to myself, "Now if only I could buy the Black Wii to go with it!"

Ask and ye shall receive, apparently.

 

[twaddle]

europe has had it for a while now, but i still can't afford the damn thing T-T need employment...badly T-T

 

[jasoncyrus]

Err..I've had a black wii (not painted, proper black with black controllers) for months and months already

 

[BlindMessiah94]

From a personal perspective, it seems they'll have to do much more than that to compete once Sony's Natal [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/99047-Behold-the-Official-PlayStation-Move-Trailer] hit the market.

Like put out some games maybe that are good? Or at the very least use the motion controls properly and aren't just tacked on as an afterthought?

I agree, the Wii still needs to give me a reason to own it other than 'It's black and has wii sport 2.0"
