New Wii SKU Spotted In UPC Filing
In the ever-mysterious world of prognostication-by-SKU-hunting, a new Wii unit has been turned up. Apparently the new Wii package is called "New Pack," appropriately, and isn't rumored to include any kind of hardware refresh such as DVD playback or improved definition. Nope, all signs point to a "Holiday" value pack (especially because the SKU is listed at the current price, in Canadian dollars, of $289.99).
But what do you pack into a holiday pack, anyway? Something "New," I hope, unless the name is a dirty rotten lie. Maybe dropping Wii Sports as the bundled title and replacing it with something fancier? Or could the console finally come in one of those long-promised colors?

Dropping WiiSports? Until you can buy it as a separate title on the shelves in North America, don't count on it.
My money is that they're *adding* either Big Brain or WiiPlay to the current box. Or an additional remote maybe?
Flynn and I were in Target today and saw three Wiis sitting on the shelf. It's the first time I have ever seen unsold regular priced systems. It will be interesting to see what happens this shopping season.
Probably the updated packages with the Wii Remote Jacket included guys...
Though officially the DVD version is supposed to come out by the end of this year...
Stop making sense Alice!
I think it's gonna have a puppy inside!
