Nintendo is dangling a new incentive for Wii purchases.
Starting May 9, the company will include its Wii Sports Resort game and MotionPlus controller with new consoles--with no price increase.
The Sports Resort and MotionPlus bundle sells separately for $49.99.
The Wii, which will continue to sell in the U.S. at its current price of $199, will also be offered with a new black finish. The black version will be bundled with black controllers.
Each Wii package--whether black or traditional white--will still also include the Wii remote control, a Nunchuk controller, and the Wii Sports title.
Sports Resort features athletic competitions, including archery, basketball, bowling, golf, cycling, and sword fighting. The MotionPlus controller is designed to provide greater accuracy and control in game play. In addition to working with Sports Resort, MotionPlus is also compatible with some other games, including Electronics Arts' Tiger Woods PGA Tour and Grand Slam Tennis.
Rumors of the new bundle and black finish surfaced last week with a leaked GameStop ad circular.
Do you think that this will encourage people to buy a Nintendo Wii instead of a different gaming system? Share your thoughts in the comments section of this post.

That new Wii looks awesome. I am so going to get one. I thought the old one was cool but look at this it is black and blue. My too favorite colors. Finally a dream come true.
I think, this is a great idea, to change the color, and have new bundles of games! The black version coming with the black remote, and nunchuck seems pretty cool.
I hate xbox wannabes

i dont like the wii and i dont think i will like this one, it will a have to have changed a whole lot for me to get one.but i do like the color
I want a black wiimote so bad. And by the way, nintendo doesn't want to be xbox. Xbox wishes nintendo would release its multi-million dollar making characters to xbox, but nintnedo is way too smart for that.
