Nintendo has announced they will be releasing a Wii redesign this holiday season. This Wii 2.0, Nintendo calls it the “Wii Family Addition,” will be more sleeker and also ditch the Game Cube ports. Nintendo says the new design will have the Wii sitting horizontal rather than vertical.

As of right now Nintendo has only announced this for the UK but I can see no reason why this redesign will not come to the States…well I said that about Xenoblade as well.
