We've had the Black Wii in the UK for a number of months now, and I personally prefer it to the White model.

The early concept shots of the "Revolution" as it was then called had been black, and it just looks incredibly slick =]

However, the one issue that I do have with the Wii as a console is the lack of being able to transfer all your Virtual Console/ WiiWare purchases across as they're tied to the console rather than a central account.

I contacted Nintendo UK and they said if I sent my old White Wii and the new Black Wii to them, they would transfer everything across - realistically who is a) going to own two Wii's, and b) going to risk sending them both through the post?

I am hoping more than anything that Nintendo reveal a Wii System Update at this years E3, in a similar style to Microsoft announcing the NXE.

It is about time they fixed all of this. It means that I have wasted £100 if I can't get that content back, and it isn't fair on those that express loyalty to the company through their purchases at all =[

The only problem I could foresee em having is controlling/limiting the number of times you can do it.

Sort of like the PSN share system, where well... like Magus and I pretty much split everything we buy, so they wouldn't want to lose out on all that profit.

Also question for the Seedhouse, does the black Wii smudge easily? Fingerprint magnet?

I didn't notice that when a friend brought over his black Wiimote.

Now that I have a black Classic Controller Pro, I should be able to answer this.

Does it smudge? Yes. Does it smudge a lot? Nah, not in an annoying way. I've been playing for 15 hours now, the controller doesn't look dirty. Just some fingerprints when you hold it in the right light.
