The recently announced blue Wii is making its way to Australia with Donkey Kong Country Returns.

It was recently announced that Europe will be getting a new Wii bundle which consisted of a blue version of the newly configured Wii along with Mario & Sonic and now Australia can get a piece of the blue action too.

EB Games recently announced that they will be exclusively selling the Blue Wii in Australia but bizarrely it will be packaged alongside Donkey Kong Country Returns.

When we say 'newly configured Wii' we just mean 'GameCube-less' Wii. The Blue Wii along with Donkey Kong Country Returns will cost $198 AUS.

What do you make of this news? Do we have any Australian readers who plan to pick up this new package? Let us know in the comments section below.
