Wii packaging revealed

So now that we know when you'll be able to purchase the Wii (November 19th) and how much it'll cost you ($250 US), I bet you're wondering what the box the retail clerk is going to place into the plastic bag and proceed to hand you will look like? Well, feast your eyes on the box for the Wii including a large sticker declaring that Wii Sports is included. We already knew that, but it's nice to have visual reassurance, isn't it?

[Thanks to everyone that sent this in!]

Ok, when I heard the price I was really disapointed i was figuring on the standard $199 that we come to expect from Nintendo, but since it comes with a game I am ok with it. Just wish it was coming out earlier, I hate that I will have to fight to get one first because of holiday shopping, rather then just because of nintendo fans.

Damn you Nintendo!!!!!!!

Why won't you launch the Wii in Black too? Now you'll have to wait a few more months to take my money.

C'mon, I know you want it!

I don�t like the Wii sports ticket. The package would be a lot more attractice without it because it would make the package cleaner. At least, Nintendo isn�t using 100�s of colours for its systems anymore :)

I don't like the "Wii" text on the frontside of the box, besides that it's pretty awesome!
