Kind of looks cool

so it's barely cheaper and that somehow justifies gutting all online capabilities

wii? online capabilities?

nintendo always does really good redesigns at the last minute

e.g. game boy micro, dogbone nes, dsi

this isn't one of them

the dogbone nes is hideous though. I think this one looks great, it's kind of like a sleek gamecube.

god the design is attractive

why does the wii u console look so bland when nintendo turns out products like this.

agreed

the wii u now looks more like the wii than even this wii revision does

by "good redesigns" i was mostly talking about the actual quality/value of the re-release

this looks good but it's completely worthless

Considering that wifi capability doesn't add very much size nor cost to a device, I can only imagine this is the result of people at Nintendo struggling to find even more features they can remove from the Wii.

I can't find any pictures or articles that show whether this console has any USB ports on the back. Considering that Nintendo claims this thing has no online support, their Wii Menu modifications probably would also kill ethernet support (or at least remove the Shop Channel) regardless of whether the system has USB ports.

also, uh...
i know the price is already p. low, but uh...
i wonder if they're going to do anything special with the wii

They're going to remove even more features from the Wii while again keeping it at the same price as it has been

The only remaining ways I can think of for them to make it worse (without breaking all compatibility with a large number of Wii games) would be to decrease the internal storage to barely be able to hold the firmware/system menu, require an SD card for saving any game save or downloaded games/channels, and removing at least one if not both of the USB ports. Or maybe they can remove the SD slot instead of the USB ports, break compatibility with any features requiring SD, and require USB drives instead of SD cards.

I was trying to joke and exaggerate when I made this post just two months ago, but it looks like Nintendo is better at breaking things than I can imagine.

Though I can't find anything indicating whether Wii mini has USB ports or SD slot, it looks like there's a very good chance that Nintendo removed both. And there's also no information about its internal storage capacity.

Do you guys honestly think that it's a good design? It looks like a fucking happy meal toy.

don't happy meal toys look like cartoon characters or cars or something? 

[Mando Pandango]

They look like cheap plastic with bulky, simplistic parts. If they're based on something, it's a super-simplified, bastard-looking version of it.

It's a Happy Meal Wii.

You mean it's not?
