== Wii Lite's history ==
Nintendo wanted to release cheaper version of Wii. The development started in Late 2006 after the release of original Wii.
The development started with System Software, The menu itself was Lacking Wii Shop Channel. WiiConnect24 features were included. It was quick to create it. The system menu accepted updates, but Wii Shop Channel will be not installed. This feature cut the abilities to buy Virtual Console games, WiiWare games, and Channels. This got later changed, but Wii Shop Channel didn't came fully to Wii Lite. The black console variant was later used in Wii Premium Model.
