That crazy day of manic buying, also known as Black Friday, is very nearly upon us, and Walmart has sounded the first battle cry.
Siliconera reports the retailer has the exclusive on the blue reconfigured Wii, and will be selling it on 25th November for just $99.96. However, the advert just lists the box's contents as a Wii console, Remote Plus and Nunchuk: no mention of Mario and Sonic at the London 2012 Olympic Games or any other pack-in software, in fact.
Still, if you really must have a blue Wii, 25th November is your best — perhaps only — shot.

BOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE WANTA WII THAT PLAYS GC GAMES
If it was 25$ I'd buy one.
Cool a Smurf Wii!
I'm blue, da ba dee da ba die.
Oh great now I got that damn song stuck in my head.
I don't get it, nintendo is still promoting sales of the WII, and the WII U is going to come out.
@ clubmini
Not for another year probably. The Wii still has a ways to go yet.
@xj0462: Agreed.
Reggie has a greasy chin
clubmini - it sounds like the WiiU won't be out until 2013
Finally after 5 years of the Wii we are getting more color choices! All we now need is the red and green ones, and the circle will be complete.
@motang Didn't you guys get the red one with Mario last year?
@Montag @James
Yeah, all US needs is green.
It's Blue! ...... but it's neutered of it's GC abilities... ugh! want but don't want.
well, I have a blue Wiimote... damn, if only this color came out much much sooner.
Remember all those colors Nintendo showed? Navy blue... ugh, if only people voted for that. The Wii was first shown in Black...
No bundled games, oh dear Nintendo want people to pick one up when they buy a system, a yellow system would look so cool.
Removing gamecube support was a duck move, Nintendo.
come on, give it to me in a GC playing version, THEN let's talk money...
Damn I would get it but if its only available at Wal Mart than I am screwed.
Is this a permanent model? Or just a limited-edition thing?
$99 is a steal, but I guess that's just the Black Friday price... Or is it an official price drop?
just tell me about the zelda or MH-themed 3DS coming stateside for black friday. That's all I want.
Duuuuuude...I wonder if the GC system files will be removed...cuz that might turn out to be really cool Mehehe
@zezzy: I think Best Buy or Gamestop confirmed they're getting the Zelda themed 3DS for Black Friday
