Topic: Black Wii for the UK and EU + Classic Controller Pro

Be jealous my American friends be very jealous, it has just been announced that the UK will be receiving the Black Wii bundled with Motion plus, Wii sports and Resort on November 6th, the rest of Europe will receive it on November 20th.

More Info here

Edit: Forgot to mention the Classic controller Pro will also be released across the EU on Nov 20th

Now I have to change my christmas list....

November 20th 2009 could just be the greatest day in history for Europeans, the Black Wii is released, Classic controller Pro is released, and NSMB:Wii are all released on that one day.

There have been better.... if i remember correctly.

OMFG!!! This is what I've been waiting for, and had totally given up on it for now. This is super awesome, I can't wait! Thanks for info Stevie. YES!

EDIT: Yep, just google news'd it and it's definitely happening, WAHOO!!!!!!! That's in two weeks!!! Sweet!

@Machu: You'll finally be able to play that copy of Metroid Prime Trilogy you bought!!!

@Zpahod: Yeah I know dude, I'm uber chuffed. I was all set to wait patiently till MH3 came out, I never expected it this soon. My birthday is in November, I know what I'll be buying myself. Yay!

I'm mildly annoyed I'll be paying the same amount I did 3 years ago, but... THANK YOU NINTENDO!!!!

Well sadly I'm waiting .... I know that there's going to be a blue coloured Wii mote coming out for Japan, not so long ago they announced black Wii's for Japan. I'll wait for a blue one to come or yellow that would be cool! I've seen it on one UK based on line company that it's going to be "limited edition" Sadly I'll wait unless they start doing Mario bundles as Limited Edition!!!

Sweet, coming out in Ireland the same day!!!

Why would I be jealous of Europe? I already have a Wii. I could always just pretend it's black

NSMBWii comes out 3 days earlier, and I'd rather just buy a $30 case mod then a $200 console that I already have. As for the Classic Controller Pro, I am fine with the Gamecube one until it comes out in the US.

NSMBWii is released on the 15th Nov in NA and 20th Nov in the EU, I probably won't get a black Wii simply because I can't transfer my downloaded games onto it, otherwise I would get one and sell my white Wii or give it to someone for Xmas. I'll be allover NSMBWii and the CC:Pro though.

Oh, for some reason I thought it was the 17th.

My Wii has a black skin, but I shall be buying the black Wii. Stupid huh.

Skins are a whole different story. They look terrible, I don't blame you, but a case mod is completely different.

Oi, my skin looks sweet I'll have you know. Meh.

Now I have to find some way to legitimately damage my Wii for replacement.
...And produce a fake receipt from with the year. TO PHOTOSHOP!

I'm kidding _honest

OK, so I don't know what I'm gonna do with spare copies of Wii-Sports and Wii-Sports Resort, as I imagine I'll be forced to buy the bundle. Plus, I can't transfer the goodies inside over to my new one, so I'll be stuck with two Wii's with separate uses. I'm still chuffed, but I'll have to look into transferring my Wii Shop account over somehow. Hhmm.

Hats off to Nintendo for releasing this bad boy in time for Christmas. Only now do I understand why they haven't reduced the price.

/me drools.

That wouldn't even work. Nintendo knows when and where you bought your wii by the serial number on the bottom of it.

Same here, Machu....
