The new, cool, in color of the Nintendo Wii is black and shops like NCSX is ready to take pre-orders for black Wii Remote ($43.90), black nunchuk ($25.90) and black classic controller ($26.90).

Why we need so much black? Firstly, if you get the remote or nunchuk dirty, they still look nice. Secondly, black can absorbs excess heat around you and lastly, these Wii black peripherals are greatly compatible with Darth Vader party costume.
Pre-order here.
