Sorry America, it seems like Nintendo doesn’t love you anymore. Particularly given the continual stream of Wii related products that won’t be coming to the US. The latest example: the black Wii Sports Resort bundle.
Nintendo UK just announced that the limited edition black Wii system will be coming out on November 6th, bundled with Wii Sports Resort. The limited edition bundle will include a Wii-mote, nunchuk, and MotionPlus peripheral, as well as Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort.
Nintendo UK also announced that they are releasing a black Classic Controller Pro. There’s no pricing on any of this new equipment, for the EU yet. Nintendo not only hasn’t announced a release date for the US on the new bundle, they’ve said that they have no plans to release any other colors of Wii until sales drop off on the original system. We are going to get black peripherals however.

Hopefully the States’ black Wii will be accompanied by a graphics update. Honestly, who doesn’t have a Wii at this point? What would be the point of buying a black one?
At any rate, the great thing about the Wii is that it can be completely hidden except when changing the discs. Color doesn’t really matter much to me.
Coming from a person who doesn’t have a wii
I think its stupid how they would release just the peripherals with no system limited or not.
Besides after seeing this I have no interest in the regular wii anymore. Its simply not good enough.
I’ve even heard ppl say that they’ll trade in their Wii for the black on
Hey wouldn’t the black wii look even better if the light was red instead of blue :D
And the album will be called: “Fear of a Black Wii”.
