July 16th, 2009 No Comments   Posted in Hardware, Nintendo, Wii


While the attractive black Wii makes its way onto Japanese shelves on August 1st, one can’t help but wonder if the color will also be coming to North America. Responding to GameDaily’s question to Nintendo of America if there are any plans to bring the SKU to the States, the company simply said “There are no plans to have other colors of Wii in the U.S.”

Be assured though, this doesn’t mean that there will never be multicolored Wii’s in America; Nintendo is notorious for pimping out the colors of the rainbows on all of their systems. Going back to the days of the Nintendo 64 and Gameboy Pocket, the company is almost guaranteed to release different hues of their console. However, these releases are usually made in the middle of the lifespan of the consoles.
