Manufacturer description
Nintendo Wii Blue RVL-101 Family Edition console in open box condition. This one appears to be unused. The console is still in the original protective wrap, the controller/accessories are still bagged/wrapped, and everything is packed very close to how it originally came from Nintendo. Includes the blue Wii console, blue Wii Remote, Nunchuk, power supply, AV cable, sensor bar, manuals/paperwork, original cardboard inserts/trays, batteries, and original box. I do not see any signs that the system was ever actually set up or played. Outer box has some normal storage/shelf wear from age, but…
SpecPicks Verdict
SpecPicks scored Nintendo Wii Blue Family Edition RVL-101 Open Box Unused CIB… using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the retro consoles category. Nintendo's retro consoles lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here. Judge it on the specification table and the price rather than on sentiment: check the figures that decide your use case, then put it side-by-side with two or three close alternatives in the Compare tool before clicking through.
Common buyer scenarios for retro consoles of this kind: matching it to an existing build, replacing a failing part, or upgrading from a previous-generation equivalent.

Prices and stock are set by the retailer and may have moved since this page was last updated.
