black wiimote
Almost every region gets a black Wii except for North America
Those black Wiis are certainly attractive. So slick, shiny and new. It makes it all the more disappointing that North America is one of the only regions so far that won’t be seeing it.
Nintendo just announced today that a limited edition black Wii bundle is going to be released in Europe. This means Japan is no longer the only region to get that special color system. However, it doesn’t sound like it is going to be a permanent member of the Nintendo lineup. It will only be available in a limited edition Wii Sports bundle. It’s essentially a normal Wii, only Wii Sports Resort is included, as well as one black motionplus accessory. The remote and nunchuk that come with the bundle will also be black, to match the console.
A price hasn’t been announced yet, but release dates have. If you live in England, Scotland or Ireland, you’ll be able to get it November 6, 2009. The rest of Europe has to wait until November 20, 2009. Europe will also be able to purchase the black remote, nunchuk and motionplus separately, starting November 20.
There’s one more perk Europe gets too. Not only do Europeans get the black Wii, and the black controllers, but they’ll also be able to get the black classic controller pro…
