Too bad it doesn't come with the classic control like the Japanese release.
Still I wanted the black Wii so I may put one of these on lay-buy when they are released. _________________ Welcome to the internet. Where any joke can turn into WWIII.

If you're quick you can trade in your old, ugly white Wii for a new, shiny, black Wii at EB for just $199!

Nice for people without a Wii who want something newer looking. White is still hot, but I always wanted the black one.
It should have come with Sports Resort and M+. Lord knows Nintendo can afford it, and the more people who own M+ the better.
Lord also knows Nintendo dont really need to do that though . _________________

I thought the girls would like a white one more. All my precious items are white. bar the ps3. A pity we don't get more limited edition consoles and colours like they have in Japan. _________________ Dragon Quest IX

About God Damn Time! I've been waiting for this since the Wii was released (still a bit of fanboy in me).

With game consoles so present in so many homes these days I am actually quite surprised they don't come in a variety of colours so the consumer can pick one that will suit their decor.
One thing I like about the 360 faceplates as i have my 360 horizontal in its own recess i can choose a colour/design that doesn't scream out "Game Console Here!!!" _________________

They really need to change that blue light. It looks ghastly with the glossy outer case.

Exactly same situation for me now.
I had kinda become reserved to the fact that the Black Wii wouldn't be out till later in the year, and instead was putting money into holiday savings... instead now, I'm having temptations.

Instead of wii sports it should come with Star Wars: The Force Unleashed imo. I mean they are marketing it as some special edition star wars wii system.

I've got my one pre-ordered at GAME, just wish we got the UK version which came with Wii Sports Resort + and Motion Plus thingy as well for no extra price. _________________ RIP Buddha 19/10/1952 - 03/01/2004

Toys R Us have a pre-order offer of $399.96 including the Black Wii console, Remote and Numchuck in black, Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resore with Motion Plus adapter, Wii Family Game Night 2 and Wii Toy Story Mania. I am new to the whole Wii thing, does this sound like a good deal?
