Nintendo of Japan has been busy trying to arrest sliding Wii sales in Japan by announcing the release of a new black-coloured version of its slightly-less-popular-than-it-used-to-be console.Launching in Japan on 1st August, there will also be a special Monster Hunter Tri bundle featuring the new console, the game and a black Classic Controller Pro. Which will undoubtedly be HUGE.
A new red DSi will be released on 11th July, while Nintendo has also launched the official site for Wii Sports Resort, which eastern gamers are getting a month early - it arrives in Japan in just three weeks (25th June for those whose maths isn’t too hot). The site’s a little sparse at the moment, but you can get a glimpse of the (excellent) box art.
