Nintendo Wii colors coming soon?
These days, rumors about old products appearing in new colors is more a question of "when" than "if". Everyone from cell phone manufacturers to laptop companies are releasing old products dressed up in shiny new colors in an attempt to stimulate sales. The Nintendo Wii certainly isn’t in need of an artificial increase in demand, as insanely low supply has left people foaming at the mouth to get their hands on the thing. That said, we certainly wouldn’t be surprised if Nintendo decided to drop some limited edition colored consoles. A recent receipt from Target has revealed what appears to be a change in the Wii’s model name designation from Wii to Wii White. Does this imply a Wii Black / Pink / Grey / Green? Your guess is as good as ours at the moment, but we’re sure this mystery will be cleared up sooner than later. What is even less clear, however, is just when Nintendo expects to get anywhere close to meeting demand for the Wii in any color…

Any other products renamed to include a color reference? More likely could mean that they are redesigning their system to always include a color for all products.
Why the skepticism you ask? Well, does Nintendo really need any more reasons to encourage people to buy a Wii?
