Back when the Nintendo Wii launched in 2006, the company showed possible console colors: White, red, silver, lime green and black. White was the launch color, and that's all customers have had. Until now.

Today, Nintendo announced that it will be launching a black-colored Wii in Japan on August 1 for ¥25,000 (US$260). Besides the console, Nintendo will be selling black Wii peripherals as well. They are priced as follows:

• Black Wii Remote ¥3,800 (US$40)
• Black Nunchaku ¥1,800 (US$19)
• Black Classic Controller Pro ¥2,000 (US$21)

The white colored Wii went on sale on December 2 in Japan when the platform initially launched.

Well it's about dang time Nintendo lived up the the promise of other Color Wii's coming to market. Seems like it's just for Japan now. But I'm pretty sure we will hear about it coming to North America and other areas later on.

My Prediction: If Nintendo brings the Black Wii to North America. It's release will be around the Holidays.

What I want is some new colours for DSi. Like, actual colours, and I suppose same for Wii. Where's the red and green Wiimotes they showed when they first unveiled the darn thing? -------------------- i

Yeah but Japan also already has Green, Pink and Blue I think, but so far both Australia and America are stuck with their standard colours with no announcements of anything new. I know they like to save colours for when the system starts to slow in sales but it's a little annoying.

Otherwise I'd be interested. My father insists on using the Wii on the main TV despite the fact that he never uses it. I'd be more likely to be using it in my bedroom. -------------------- Ruddy pictures! Alex made me sexy! Amster made me skeptical! mirror makes me 8-bitlytastic! Soiyeruda made me young again!
