In the U.S., Nintendo continues to sell the mostly fully featured Wii at $129. The smaller red and black system comes with a red Wii Remote Plus, a red Nunchuk controller and works with most Wii accessories. The restyled unit is smaller, lacks Internet connectivity, and does not support GameCube titles.
