This is a Japan-only thing for now, but Nintendo's just announced two brand spankin' new colors for the Wii. The two colors are Jet Black and Ocean Blue. (seen below)

Although we'd really like both of the colors to hit the US, Nintendo's held off Japan colors before. DS Lite color options showed up in Japan first as well. Pricing for the Wii has been left unchanged at 25,000 yen and both will include Wii Remotes and Nunchuks in matching colors (Also sold seperately at regular prices).

Now, the question is how long before this hits the US?

Holy crap, it looks like Nintendo is striking back at MS's price drops with a showstopper all on its own.

When will America get any new colors of any consoles...Japan gets everything



^_^

I want the blue one



do you know the dates on this?

Also, I wouldn't exactly call it striking back at MS, since they don't have to do anything to easily do 10x as many sales for most weeks.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Your link is broken.



Link is not working...



And they still don't change the colour of the stupid grey stand



The blue one looks beautiful



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?
