if ninty pulls this in america im sure it will boost sales as well. Something as simple as a color can change and improve the perception of the wii for a lot of consumers.Personally i think a black wii is the preetiest of all consoles, looks simple and efficient.White was ok but black is more agressive and has a more modern feel.Top it with that BEAUTIFUL classic controller and its a whole new market, even ps360 owners, that would accept better the wii. I can say this console is prettier than any other nintendo released, cube ,snes, nes or n64(specially n64). So elegant and classy. If i didnt have a wii id buy this in a hearbeat...Maybe i sell my white and pay the diference for a new black if this comes to America.

Because it sells more consoles that way. Many people rebuy consoles/handhelds/accesories when a new color or version comes out. And it also helps to revive the sales after quite a long time.

Demand is still great enough for them not to introduce any new product onto the market. When sales start to slump here you can expect new colors, bundles, price drops, etc... to push those sales back up.

Nintendo is a business and I understand their corporate approach to these things. But I don't have to agree with them. Revealing the Wii with multiple color schemes then giving their die hard users one option is disrespectful to the fan base. They shouldn't have shown the other colors when they first paraded the console for the public. I know in the world of business money comes first but I don't need to be reminded that they don't give a crap.

Thanks! that is what I was trying to say, but i guess I was saying it in different words because my english is bad. I mean..why would they offer something if they have nothing to offer.

puttin more focus on whats inside , and i already have a black console anyway ;) ,

don't understand how anyone can buy a new consoole just for a color andalready owning the original one , case replace is a cheaper alternative , im pretty sure there will be black replacement parts after launch of the black wii

Cheaper, but it does void your warranty.

And a lot of hassle not everyone is that skilled :P I'd be too scared to do that. I was gonna buy a Wii in July but might hold out for this one hopefully its announced here for christmas season cos id really prefer the black :)

sorry i didnt consider not everyone is technically skilled , but anyway giving it to a pro technician will cost less then a new console , i have no warranty anyway -> launch wii

I want one but I have like over 70 Virtual Console and Wii-ware games. Is it going to be possible to redownload them on my new Wii? That's why I like Sony's way of handling it. You can redownload anything you buy on up to 5 PS3's.

The black looks pretty slick but I wouldn't buy it unless my current Wii broke. The only way I'd buy a second Wii without my current one being broke is if they released orange.
