The truth comes out: The Wii is a GameCube!

Well, not quite. It seems that one Kotaku reader got his replacement Wii shipped back to him with a GameCube label on the plastic. Maybe they’re saving money by using all the GameCube bags and labels that they never got a chance to use?

“i received my replacement wii in the mail today (quite speedy since i sent in the request last friday), and when i opened it up, lo and behold, the label heralded the arrival of my gamecube replacement. all that griping about the wii really being just two gamecubes stuck together must have gotten to someone up at NOA. i had a good laugh.”

So I have my old replacement DS Lite packaging here and…whoa, so it is a Game Boy in disguise! No, just kidding.
