More Wii Colors on the Way?

The website GameDrift HAS reported that an “Anonymous” Nintendo Representative Revealed that Nintendo is going to release new Wii colors by the end of 2007. Below is an Excerpt from the article:

In a rather shocking revelation this weekend, an anonymous Nintendo rep revealed to GameDrift that a plan is running through the pipeline to colorize the, as of now, rather bland coloration of its hit console, Wii. The rep did not reveal detailed specifics, however did remark that a red and black console have been confirmed.

My thoughts:
Even though the validity of their source cannot be proven, I can definitely see this rumor coming true. When Nintendo launched its dual screened handheld, ds lite, it launched in only White. After months of the systems release, we were given the lite in numerous colors with unlimited success. Nintendo no doubt realizes this and will exploit it with the years to come.

If you had your choice, what color would your Nintendo Wii be?

    I would definitely order my wii (if I didn’t have one already) in standard ds platinum. that is my color of choice for any game based upon video. And by the way, does anyone else realize how much nintendo is iPoding itself? I mean, the accesories, different colors, and easy access to everyone? It seems that nintendo really wants that $2billion a quarter, eh?

    I have to say I do miss the “silver” console. I’m happy either way I guess. My white wii matches everything else (ds lite, macbook, and my 360.

    I’m not surprised about this. IGN mentioned it in their predictions as well and it definately seems probable. Demand is still high and people love choices…so look out for those pick Wii’s.

    I was just thinking about my Wiimotes, and how they exactly the same… A bit of color would be nice.

    I wouldn’t mind seeing the Wii available in platinum, black or red.
