Wii Remote and Nunchuk go dark in Nov.

Nintendo’s Wii Remote and Nunchuk controllers are getting a new look, just in time for the holidays: black. Ever since the Wii system launched in November 2006, the controllers have been available only in white. On Nov. 16, Nintendo introduces new black versions.

The new black Wii Remote controller will be available packaged with a black Wii MotionPlus accessory, which allegedly brings enhanced precision to games - I say allegedly because I don’t see it in any of the games I play.. The package will be available at a suggested retail price of $49.99. The black Nunchuk controller will be available separately at a suggested retail price of $19.99.
