Black versions of the Wii remote, nunchuk and MotionPlus accessory are to be released in the US this "holiday season".

There's no word on whether a black console is also on the way, but seeing as one has already been launched in Japan it seems likely.

As reported by Kotaku, Nintendo has also confirmed a US release date for Wii Fit Plus. The disc and balance board will be available as a bundle for $100 (around 60 quid / 70 Euros). Lucky Americans who already own a board will be able to pick up Wii Fit Plus separately for $20 (£12 / €14).

Nintendo has yet to announce a European release date for Wii Fit Plus, and there's no word yet on whether the black unit will make it over here.
