(click to enlarge)

No official price given - it will go on sale on Nov 18th (EU), same date as the game.

It's obviously the new, cheaper, no-GC, no-stand Wii.

I have a white one and want to transfer all to my red one... but this is really eye-catching, IMO!

SouthernDragon · Oct 10, 2011

It only took them 5-6 years to release all the colors, eh?

No, wait, green and silver are still missing...

Nuclear Muffin · Oct 10, 2011

Too little, too late.

Drkirby · Oct 10, 2011

I was expecting a darker Colored blue, not the Blue Wii Remote Blue. Not a big fan of the shade.

Tenbatsu · Oct 10, 2011

Took them long enough.

watershed · Oct 10, 2011

I imagine it will do pretty well in the UK with th olympics and all.

Ushojax · Oct 10, 2011

Does it come with a blue nunchuck? I hate that we can only get white or black.

This.

zerotol · Oct 10, 2011

It's already been said, but I wish it was a darker shade of blue.

Anasui Kishibe · Oct 10, 2011

Eurogamer couldn't even link the correct picture. Fucking atrocious site

panty · Oct 10, 2011

Don't like the color.

Michan · Oct 10, 2011

Horrible box. It's so vacant, the baby blue looks like it was plucked from 1999, and the grey Wii logo blends in a really hideous way. It's clearly very quickly thrown together by some intern.

I love how "SEGA" is on the box without an eye-catching Nintendo logo, though. That's just awesome.

dwu8991 · Oct 10, 2011

There's soccer?

Grinchy · Oct 10, 2011

A darker blue would have been nicer. It's also so strange to see Sonic on the box of a Nintendo console.

No blue Wii.

yes

Allan Holdsworth · Oct 10, 2011

Ugly sky/baby blue.
I want a green Wii for Zelda SS.

ShellyDeKiller · Oct 10, 2011

So when are they announcing Golden Wii with Skyward Sword??

Tempy · Oct 10, 2011

Should've been SEGA/Sonic-Blue.

Sinthetic · Oct 10, 2011

Nice colour, it's getting old now with the special Wii editions.

Metroid Killer · Oct 10, 2011

There, are you happy now?

See what you did to poor ol' Sonic

CrunchinJelly · Oct 10, 2011

That's turquoise.

Dash Kappei · Oct 10, 2011

Not blue.

Kyon · Oct 10, 2011

Looks like a Wii U, hope I'm not the only one that sees it

It's Aqua blue!

ShinNL · Oct 10, 2011

Well, the first Mario & Sonic was such a low budget ugly cash cow, I wonder if they changed the formula. If not, this has to be the worst pack-in game ever.

Gravijah · Oct 10, 2011

best wii color ever

To Far Away Times · Oct 10, 2011

So we finally got a console with both Nintendo and Sega on the box.

I bet it's UK only, because of the Olympics there.

not to mention their bizarre everlasting love for anything sonic.

it's a Nintendo console after all. They want Sonic blue, they emerge from the dead and make a new Dreamcast or something

Pie and Beans · Oct 10, 2011

Would have bought a Wii at launch in this colour. I settled for black in the end.

Always annoys me having to wait for console colours. Gonna be hell buying a bog-standard black Vita around launch knowing stuff like White and Sky Blue ones will roll out down the line :/

BGBW · Oct 10, 2011

Happy with my white Wii since day one. Even if Nintendo did release a purple one in the end in Europe it would be the dumbed down model.

no, you aren't happy with it.

Guess I was mistaken. Better set aside my savings for a blue Wii then so I can experience true happiness/

JosephManderley · Oct 10, 2011

I can't see very well from the box pic - is that a backwards compatible Wii, or the redesign?

OP post says it's the latter.

linko9 · Oct 10, 2011

I was expecting dark blue... that would look better.

BY2K · Oct 10, 2011

Did the other Mario & Sonic game sell so well to warrant a brand new color to promote it? Seriously?

BowieZ · Oct 10, 2011

What kind of blue do you expect when this is the London Olympics logo?

Doh! It's Monday morning! I really should have seen that!

Think I'll get this.

PixyJunket · Oct 10, 2011

This should have been the Dragon Quest X Wii, since it's close to the color of the standard slime.

haha nice. cool color though

Azure Phoenix · Oct 10, 2011

Poor shade of blue, 5 years too late, crappy cut down model - no thank you.
