Soon you can see a whole new look of Wii, this new colorful hardware adds to your gaming interest. Nintendo guys really are creative people, first the Wii controller & now this hats off to them. The hardware anyhow remains the same, only the looks will change.
Just imagine what if you mod it a bit (using cool stickers or sticking your favorite game character), how cool it looks. Hope this increases their sales again, though not a huge way but to some extent.
