This is What the Black Wii Box Looks Like

Will there be a fake shortage on these as well?

"a lot more hardcore than it really is" Like the subtle insult

omg!!! it looks exactly like a white wii but black who could have guessed.

Fake shortage? I think you're confusing Nintendo with Sony there.

Like many of their products, I guess it'll soon be available in white, black, and also green, grey, clear, clear purple, clear blue and of course, banana yellow.

How about anti-theft pink.

nice... i might consider one now... but... probably not..

Sexy Wii is sexy.

And plenty hardcore if you're talking about actually being a gamer and enjoying yourself, rather than playing the "hardcore" Gears of War fare.

By the second definition it means you're twelve years old in mind or body and insecure about having fun with primary colors.

That's one damn good looking Gamecube.

I could care less about the color of my console. Well...given a choice I wouldn't buy a pink one, but white vs. black? I don't care.

@bourgeoisDUDE

oh you wouldN'T argh sorry my mistake... no edit button, this sucks

Sooooo, A black wii to hook up, play a little Wii-Sports and forget about after the novelty is gone.

Now the WiiBlack will cost 50% premium over the white..

The Wii is basically becoming like the competition. Just look at the PS3 and Xbox 360. The Wii used to be different, now it is using a traditional controller, same color, and added HD capabilities. I think it's probably better than the original but Nintendo should stop trying to go against the grain if it's going to end up copying the other manufacturer's later.

Sure menacing. Just like a tiny spider.

the wii is a hideous designed console period if you ask me , cahnging it's color doesnt change that. to me it looks worse that the gi-normous original x box it jsut deosnt same games to me (but then again enither does the ps3)

i think some of the best looking consoles ever are

1. Game cube (great compact and cute , now if only it could have seen better titles)
2. PS 1 (simple , and easy to use)
3. Dream cast ( very silmilar to the PS 12 in looks thoguh a bit fatter)
4. Super Nintendo ( it said games and it said power as well back in it's day all in a compact system)
5. X box 360(it's sleek , and looks good in a large variety of color/skin themes , though it is one of the bigger -better looking consoles, and in this rare case i'dsay they should ahve gone bigger with it to give teh components more overhead for cooling)


the worse looking i'd say are

1. Sega Saturn (looked like a cross between a funky sound system a oversized dvd player)
2. PS 3 ( looks more like a george forman grill than a console
3. original X box ( iot weas big bad .. and well ugly whiel it did say console , it also said "give me more room" i always had trouble finding it a spot in teh home theareter shelf because it was so massive but i can't knock it ot much thye crammed the components in it as tight as they could)
4. N64 ( sure it wsa cute it was fairly compact and it said games.. but it was a really awkward shape that jsut didn't fit well in many spaces it could ahve gone witha simplier body design.
5. atari 2600 (original release) ( now dont get me wrong i guess back in teh day wood paneling was all the rave, so sure it was stylish , but it was also massive and shapped like a upside down trapizoid jsut wierd design ideas , it also had a "old" look to it even when it was brand new , the second "slim" version of the 2600 looked far better on teh eyes if you ask me



note that wii was on neither of these list , and that i guess is my biggest complaint with the system's looks , it's just to bland it looks like any number of tech gadgets out there , it doesnt "jump" out and say "games" nor does it simplify it's self enough to make it's bland look blend into to the rest of your home gear. thus it becomes an eyesore sitting next to all your other home electronic equipment,in my opinion, it's just a wierd but uninspireing desing both.

Is it just me or do black Wii's look bigger than white Wii's

I don't see what all the fuss is about, people are getting all "up in arms" about it being black instead of white... saying how it is not being true to itself or some garbage.

Look, most people game on their media systems now, in their living rooms, with 90-100% of all of the other components being black, it makes sense to me. It makes for a better over-all look, then having all this black equipment and one white piece sticking out like a sore thumb. Bottom line is, if your going to buy a Wii, now at least you have the option of matching it up with your other equipment.

yeah... it looks really menacing... a menacing wii... yeah...

I wish they had released it in black from the start. Everything else in my entertainment system is black. I'm not gonna drop several hundred dollars replacing the white Wii and all its accessories. Ah well.

bash nintendo all you want. look at the revenues. nintendo wins. know why? cuz games are for kids. time to move out of your parents basements and get a job.

Can't take a console named after a bodily function seriously... sorry. Do you Play Wii or take a Wii... or Play WITH your Wii?

If you play too much with your Wii will you go blind? Is it a sin?

Or maybe it's the fact that I've played 2 decent games on it and all the rest have stunk worse than "Big Rigs".
