At their keynote at the 2009 GameStop Manager's Conference in Las Vegas yesterday, Nintendo announced a release date for two new DSi colors in North America, a new color for the Wii Remote, Wii MotionPlus, and Nunchuk, and a release date for Wii Fit Plus.

The two new DSi colors to hit North America are white and pink, which will become available at retail on September 13th. Like the black and blue colors, these will retail for $169.99.

This holiday season, NoA will be releasing the black-colored Wii Remote and Nunchuk that released in Japan back on August 1st. Unlike Japan however, North America will be getting a black Wii MotionPlus also that will be bundled with the Wii Remote.

Finally, a release date was announced for Wii Fit Plus in North America, releasing on October 4th. This is an expansion for Wii Fit which comes with new exercises, games, and activities. Wii Fit Plus will be available as a standalone disc for $19.99, or in a bundle with the Wii Balance Board for $99.99.

Nintendo today announced that the new Wii Fit™ Plus game will launch in North America on Oct. 4, and also revealed new colors for its popular Nintendo DSi™ system and for the revolutionary Wii Remote™ and Nunchuk™ controllers and Wii MotionPlus™ accessory. Starting Sept. 13, Nintendo DSi will be available in White and Pink, joining the Blue and Black versions already on the market. Additionally, this holiday season, Nintendo will release a new Black version of the Wii Remote bundled with a Black version of the Wii MotionPlus accessory, which brings precise motion control to games that have been designed for it. A Black version of the Nunchuk controller also will be available for the holidays.

Nintendo of America President & COO Reggie Fils-Aime made these announcements in his keynote address at the 2009 GameStop Manager Conference.

"All of these announcements bring more options and more choices to consumers as our industry heads into its busiest time of the year," Fils-Aime said. "Each of these products allows consumers to enjoy a more personal gaming experience, no matter how they choose to play."

    I'm happy with the white Wiimote, damn thing is expensive as is. WiiFit Plus looks alright, but it'll likely be another 2-week use product for the household before being put back on shelf.
