The Nintendo Wii is a home video game console released on November 19, 2006. The Wii's main selling point was the innovative use of motion controls that its signature Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers allowed for. It became the best selling home console of its respective generation of hardware.
How does this have anything to do with the topic? Quit trolling the forums with pointless bullshit. "

someone needs to relax. "
Someone needs to add something worthwhile and interesting to threads. "
Guys everyone needs to stop. This is getting really old. I left a flaimbait post, it was great, but seriously stop now. "
Yeah, but your post had a double meaning, both neutral and negative and therefore interpreted in a context of ambiguity. It just left it open to stupid quotes and nothing added to it. Some people do need to grow up. Sure, it is a Wii in black and in essence, big deal, it still does the same thing, but some people like the colour. The level of wit by those who shouldn't be posting is severely lacking.

I know, but when I posted I thought he meant the black Wii was gonna be a revolution, like in gaming. It wasn't until later that I realized he meant it looks like the original Nintendo Revolution. I could edit it, but by now I don't think it would do anything.
" I now know the power that seven words can have on people... "
There are a lot of stupid things you can say to get a reaction. He coulda dropped n-bombs and got even more attention, most people just have the good sense not to make themselves look repugnant/ hugely ignorant/ stupid/ childlike if they can help it.
My god...this is a terrible thread. But the racist and troll undertones make it entertaining to read. Nonetheless, i don't care about seeing a black Wii as it won't make much of a difference for me considering I wouldn't buy another Wii just for color. Some would but....that's weird.
Apparently, it also won't make haters stop hatin' on shit they don't know anything about either. = / "
Wait so that's what you call gamers these days, "haters"? Duder, c'mon, just because we don't like standing up and wiggling a plastic toy doesn't mean we don't know 'shit' about the Wii. No serious gamers has the Wii on the top of their list as the console they always want to play, it's just an accepted fact at this stage and someone who comes to giantbomb as much as you should know just as much considering the staff are always poking fun at how they "own a Wii" but never mention actually playing it... "
Just curious, with 820ish games from most consoles over the last 10 year plus, do I make it as a serious gamer? Before you answer, let me just tell you that my favourite 10 games of this generation are all Wii. You know jack, but you are welcome to share it. "
Well I find it hard to believe that if you own a 360 or a PS3 or both that you spend more time playing the Wii. I own a Wii...lol... and I'm not great with made up stats but I would estimate that I've played my xbox 360 10,000 times + more than my Wii, and I'd say that same applies to most people with both consoles. Oh could you please list those 10 games please and tell me what was that last times you've played each one. Also, with your 800+ games I'm guessing you play games every day and since your top 10 games this gen are Wii I'm sure you play a good few of them for a good few hours each day (because that's what people tend to do with their 'favourite' games) so please let me know how you do that and how it's even possible... Also, you only need to listen to the Bombcast to figure that the staff think the Wii is lame. I mean what's the ratio of Wii to 360/ps3 games in the 'what have you been playing' segment? Pretty big difference I'd say... "
Why would I give a large rodent's behind what the staff on Giantbomb think and play?

You should move over to gamespot, nail. They're resting very comfortably in their "only the word of our LORDS, the GS crew, are words of wisdom" nest.
Many of us are here because of the wiki and the boards absence (to an extent) of system wars, not because of the video game ramblings of this handful of american gamers some of you like to glorify so much. The GB crew are different from the regular "dude, EXPLOSIONS!" gamer only insofar that they know how to express themselves and the very rare occasion of them looking past the hype machine.
At least they can appreciate a good game when they happen to sumble across one, see the latest bombcast / quick look with A Boy And His Blob.

Wow, you say you're running away from the console wars yet your post cries out 'Wii fanboy' so loudly..
And if you want this site for the wiki just go to wikipedia
how can you come to GB and bitch about the guys that give this site its life and charm. It's people like you that are bringing the GB community down...
Nope, that's people like you, infesting a simple "black Wii released here, not there" thread with your idiotic Wii sucks talk, as if it has anything to do with the subject. Why would anyone who doesn't have an interest in the Wii even click and reply to this thread at all, other than merely to see the color if he hasn't? How you come off with "Wii fanboy" whenever someone sees through your trolling is beyond me but hey, whatever makes you feel better. Sorry not everyone has the same interests as your GB crew, enough for you to perceive that as "bitching" even though you brought them up in this unrelated thread as some kind of authority on good gaming just because you enjoy some of the same things. And you call others fanboys? Maybe if you start being civil without derailing every thread you pop in with trolling people will value your opinion more highly, but that's unlikely to happen any time soon. Well, I really can't wait to see the response you'll be cooking up, I'm sure it will be hilariously telling again xD

It is just a desperate cry for attention. I suppose as long as we respond to him, it is one more day he feels alive. ^-^

people like you are what make the communitly crap.
" @Willy105: How is that the "Nintendo Revolution" They paint their system black and all the sudden its a revolution? No "
He is eluding to how when the Wii was still known as the Nintendo Revolution it was shown with a black casing. I remember reading through this very thread and seeing him explain why he used this name.
Pretty much this topic in a nutshell. I don't care what colour it is, a console with no good games won't change with a colour swap. "
Very true. But what does it have to do with the Wii? @demontium said:
" @Willy105: How is that the "Nintendo Revolution" They paint their system black and all the sudden its a revolution? No "
What?
The Nintendo Revolution was the code-name for the Wii before it was released, since Nintendo set out to change the game industry with the Wii, which they did.
I refered the black Wii as the Nintendo Revolutionas as an allusion to the Wii's design prior to it's release.
You may not get the joke, but you don't have to cry about it. You are just like one of my young cousins, who cries because he doesn't understand something.
Some major fail in this topic, but what can you expect from mindless fools. Wii has some of the best games of this generation and is the console that gets the most play-time at my house. Though all consoles are in the end inferior to the PC. Nevertheless, if you don't like the Wii, at least give some reasonable counter-arguments. With games like Galaxy, TP, Brawl, Little King's Story, MP: Trilogy, NSMB Wii, and Muramasa, the Wii is far from abysmal. Sure it gets a lot of shovelware, but what system doesn't. Anyway, I do want the black Wii, but they may be holding out for America till the holidays.
