Black and white Wiis to come with Wii Sports Resort after May 9, 2010

Nintendo has just confirmed the rumor that the black Wii will be heading to North American stores. Starting May 9, 2010, all retailers that normally carry Wiis will have both black and white Wiis available. Not only that, but the $199.99 black Wii bundle will include Wii Sports, Wii Sports Resort, a black remote, a black nunchuk, a black MotionPlus peripheral and, of course, a black Wii.

The best thing about this deal is that no new Wii owner will be left behind.

Pick up your Wii controllers in white or black

Nintendo has just announced a new color of Wii remotes, motionplus and nunchuks – black. It’s good not only for people who want to show a little individuality, but also for people whose white controllers are dirt magnets! I bet families with young gamers are going to love this.They aren’t in stores yet, but on November 16, 2009 they will be.

Here’s how you’ll be able to buy them. The remote and motionplus will be packaged together and cost $49.95. The nunchuk will be available on its own for $19.99. A white remote alone currently costs $39.99 and a motionplus costs $19.99, a total of $59.98, meaning the black remote and motionplus sold together are a nice deal. If a lot of games start requiring motionplus, then people will probably turn to the black remote and motionplus instead of the copy of Wii Play that comes with a remote.

Could a black Wii be far behind…
