Red consoles should be the standard color.

Not really feeling the red. I'd prefer a color which matched my home decor.

Cute.

Cheers!

Works if your home is on fire though.

A clear one would be cool IMO

Trying to make a bigger push into the Chinese and North Korean markets? Does anybody remember the Mario is a communist internet meme?

The real thing that piques my interest is that, unless I'm mistaken, those MSRPS match those of the NORMAL bundles... Which are short a game each. So if one wanted both the console and the selected pack-in game, then that's a $50 savings on the Wii.

Meanwhile, the Wii's approaching its own anniversary... The 4th. So we're there, and now we've got 3 of the five colors Nintendo promised. Guess it'll be another few years before we see the green and blue Wiis.

Oh, so it's kind of like The People's Cube?

you'd think that after the 500 Billion dollars Nintendo made,
they could have said, thanks world, here is a new Mario game.

Still, thanks for the Memories, Nintendo.

I really wish they'd make more limited edition versions of consoles...

My wallet doesn't though.

the 25th Anniversary Nintendo should play all of the old games or at least accept the old cartrages, then I would buy it.

Well, you know why they could never make a transparent gamecube, right? 'Cause everyone would see that it just runs on hopes and dreams.

The Rush song "Red Lenses" just started playing in my head when I read this article.

Edit @ OP's request.

Warrant's "I Saw Red" started playing for me...

What are you a woman. lol

I thought all the red products were supposed to be Target exclusives

 

[braneman]

I wish they would release a "new super mario bro's" based on the third one, the first one is classic and all but not as good as super mario bro's 3.

 

[Avro Arrow]

Ok... so the point of this article is that Nintendo made a Wii that's the same as all the other Wii's except that...it's red.

Somehow I feel less intelligent now.

Milton's stapler.

The anniversary Wii should have included all of the virtual console copies of the Mario games. THEN I would think about buying it.

Mario lost all of its appeal for me once it entered the 3d realm, even though Super Mario 64 was still a pretty good game. Nothing like a classic mario side-scroller.

I believe the Red color is a shout out to its original console..the FamCom. Kinda cool but not going to rush out and buy another Wii...heh.
