I really like that picture.

Yeah.. that's a pretty traditional Japanese floor.. not a fingermark on it either, or a footprint.. nothing to spoil that untouched gleam.. *drools*

Remember kids.. In a Japanese house it is required to remove your shoes to look after the beautiful flooring..

and years ago people said it the other way (ps controller looked like the nintendo controller).

honestly though, the black wii looks awesome! makes me want to trade mine for it right now.

Maybe the very first PS controller when it didn't have the analogs, but now its different.

Okay, which Nintendo controller does it look like? The N64? It doesn't look anything like that, it had 3 "prongs." To me it just looks like the Playstation Dual Shock.

I think he's referring to the SNES controller.

Nintendo needs to go to a doctor...black wii is a sign of serious infection.

this is in no way whatsoever compensation for the 72 mins of my life i wasted watching their press conference..well..36 hehe..who could remain awake throughout the whole boring thing -_-'

I want one. Although I will say this: shiny black objects are damn hard to keep clean. My PS3 has prints all over it and I never touch the thing. They should sell the black Wii with a complementary microfiber towel to polish it up with.

I want a wood veneer console like the old days!!!

Comment by: iamgq (Jun 08, 2009 03:16)

It looks great, but still a boring console. I sold my Wii last month.

I wonder why the majority of the consoles this generation are white by default:
Xbox 360
Wii
DS Lite

Comment by: Morreale (Jun 08, 2009 04:28)

This generation is all about not matching your black TVs, PS3 being the exception. PS3 always seems to be the exception...

Nothing matches my glossy black Sharp Aquos with a lil' chrome strip on the speakers better then my glossy black PS3 with a lil' chrome strip on it's front lol

black consoles ftw. Got my black HDTV in my black entertainment center with my PS3 and other black electronics. Just one black wall with red and blue LED's here and there.

Same thing with the Black Bravia XBR with glass trip at the bottom and silver speakers. 360 looks so bad by it.

Comment by: Shinraboy (Jun 08, 2009 23:28)

Oh who cares. The appeal was the fact that it was white. Still I saw tat DSi in red it is GORGEOUS. I'd import it but hey...everyone will get it I just know it

Blame Apple. Didnt they start this white thing. --snicker-- At least Nintendo had some class and made it glossy unlike the XBox which just looks cheap in all its incarnations. As soon as my warranty expires I'm doing something special to my case.

Comment by: Shinraboy (Jun 10, 2009 17:25)

Really? I don't know white is gorgeous. Black is very....typical. The rules of design when it comes to your entertainment system have always been black black black boring. The times of sleek black electronics have to come to an end or slow down.

For example.

Black LCD Tv.

White Playstation 3

XBOX 360 in Black (witrh glossy green led lites)

And a White wii
Thats just me. Still that Red DSi is real nice

Yea I think Apple started it and now ruined it with their ugly grey computers with black frames and glossy screens... Long live my white Core 2 Duo iMac!

Heat your warranty sticker off. I didn't care about warranty, I did the xclamp mod and AS5 along with a air duct expansion when it was still working. 06 console still working here.

I guess I wouldn't mind for a glossy white or black components in my entertainment center. What ruins my entertainment center right now is my Halo Xbox, Gamecube with pokemon skin, and Mass Effect 360 but the worst is the silver DVR/Cable box. If that was black then the rest would match well.

Guess Nintendo needs to be careful about advertising, don't wanna make the mistake Sony did for the PSP.

shut the fuck up the psp go kick the shit out of wii and dsi

dsi and wii are both bad ass systems ,but when it comes face to face with the pap and pa3 it doesn't stand a chance.
