I don't know if I am just conditioned to the pure white, goody two shoes look of the white Wii or what, but somehow looking at this box I found on CNET makes me feel ... sexier. More inclined to want to turn the console on. Hell, I'd even play something with a bit of waggle. And you know how I feel about that.
We've known about the black Wii for a while now, and there's nothing unexpected about the way the box looks -- it's the exact white box, but in black instead. It should be totally run of the mill, so why am I having a reaction? The same reaction, in fact, that I had when I saw the DSi (which I bought even though my DS Lite was in perfect functioning order).
The black Wii comes out in Japan on the 1st of August and there is currently no release date for it here in the US. Would you buy one if the color makes it to our shores?

No wonder I had so much time getting girls to come over and "play" with my "Wii"! It's just plain old white! :(
But it does look nice, for sure.
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeey Colette.
[size=6]But seriously, that looks fucking sweet.[/i]
Looks really good. Really svelte. And even though I'll assume there's no non-cosmetic difference between the black & white Wiis, I'd much prefer this one.
I felt the same way as most people - and now, I'm tired of white. Black would be a nice change of pace.
...Anyone?
Wait, no- Bill Cosby gets the credit this time.
...what?
You need a Magnum cover for the Nyko Super Shot.
But this really IS sexy. It's mostly because the color black is just much more elegant than White and it usually ends up with a better appearance than white.
Just ponder on that a bit.
" You can any color as long as its white."
