I saw a pre-order for the Black wii at gamestop, so it must be real.

I just got it in an email from Nintendo...

Damn, I hate when this happens! I'd rather have the black Wii, and it comes with more for less.

edit: Lol, the email after Nintendo's was Game Stop, they have a funny offer going on right now...

Wii Bundle Upgrade Offer

Get a new Wii bundle for only $49.99 when trading a Wii, extra nunchuk & extra remote.

Offer good toward the purchase of a new Wii bundle only. Extra nunchuk and remote traded must be first party. Price shown is net after trades. Trades must be in full working condition to receive full value. Hardware must have all necessary components for trade. Cannot be combined with any other offer. Wii bundles subject to availability by location. Trade-ins subject to manager approval. See store associate for details. No dealers. Offer valid in the United States, Puerto Rico and Guam only.

So trade a Wii in with an extra set of controllers and get a new black Wii bundle for $50? Not a bad deal, but you'd lose all your Virtual Console and WiiWare games.
