what's the big deal about any revision of a console?

the slim plays the same games as the phat...

people like it, that's the big deal... (i don't care either)

*waiting for an "ask the ladies" type comment here*

by revision you mean change of color?

the slim looked different and changed some features , same for DSi , PSPGo , PS2 Slim, PSOne.

whats different about Black Wii?

A coloured revision of a console makes it more visible for the consumer ---- it catches the attention of the mainstream + bundled with a Motion+ and Wii Sports Resorts, which had brought it near 300$... I think it's a great value pack.

And with the release of Super Mario Galaxy 2, which I believe is a system seller, the new Black Wii Pack bundle with WSR will help moving some hardware.

Do you understand my theory now?

so by your theory PS2 ---> PS2 Pink is a huge revision, and the fact that it was bundled by god knows what makes it huge.

No... it's not huge. But the timing is perfect with the release of a big game, so it might help a lot the sales of the Wii. And the bundle will incitate more people to buy the console instead of a white Wii.
