A great value in video games is about to get even better. Starting May 9th, Nintendo will add new elements to the baseline Wii system package offered at retailers throughout the Americas. In addition to the intuitive, motion-sensing Wiimote, Nunchuk controller and popular Wii Sports game that currently comes standard with each system purchase, every new unit will now also come packaged with Wii Sports Resort and the control-enhancing Wii MotionPlus accessory. In addition, consumers will be able to choose between two color schemes for the Wii console and included controllers: original white, or a new black option. The US suggested retail price of the new system package will remain at $199.99. Pricing outside the United States will be established by the local markets, but offer similar consumer value.
Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime: "Nintendo leads the way in delivering rich motion-control gaming experiences at an accessible price point. By including even more of our top quality hardware and software in the basic Wii system package, we are extending that commitment to entertainment and value. Now more than ever, consumers can count on Nintendo to deliver inclusive fun and advanced motion controls at a mass-market price."
Previously unavailable throughout the Americas, the black version of the Wii console will offer all the groundbreaking features and functions of its white counterpart in a stylish new color scheme. Whether they aim to color-coordinate with other devices or simply love the way it looks, consumers throughout the Americas can add a black Wii console with matching black Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers to their home entertainment lineup. Additional black controllers and accessories can be purchased separately.
