New to me anyway.

Original source is IGN, but I couldn't find the pics there during a quick scan. They do have a few more Wii Screenshots there tho.

Thats a GC dev kit.

Thats a GC dev kit.

I am not sure if that was supposed to have a smiley at the end, but if it was serious would a GC Dev Kit have the skinny cable shown on the rear view (presumably for the WiiMote Sensor)

I think those images came from the recent THQ Wii event. Those have to be Wii dev kits then, right?

 

[StefanS]

I am sure ERP can tell us if they're Wii devkits or not

ok, I feel stupid now......

It is a Wii dev kit, found a image of a GC dev kit.

The games showcased obviously haven't been, reconfigured to take advantage of WIi hardware.

The final PS3 dev kit is much sexier.

It's funny cause these Wii dev kits are analogous to the old PS3 kits.

 

[Jabjabs]

Haha, yeah they do produce some ugly looking dev kits but it really doesn't matter. It's only skin deep.

 

[Ooh-videogames]

I would love to see a pick of the insides.

Pretty sure they're just the retail units with different colours. IIRC, the Xbox devkit is not too unlike the green Halo edition Xbox, and the Xbox360 is just a black version.

Ok, transparent for the Xbox, black with a giant HDD attachment for the Xbox 360.

Thanks. Interesting how the Xbox kits look more like actual retail units. Why do the Nintendo and Sony units look so much different(bigger) than their retail siblings?
