Nintendo Wii RVL-001 model-number guide

RVL-001 identifies the original-style Nintendo Wii console. It is the version associated with the hinged GameCube controller and memory-card port covers; confirm those ports in listing photos because titles are often copied or incomplete.

Names and model-number spellings

Listings can use any of these forms. The try-it box below groups them with eBay's comma-based OR syntax.

  • RVL-001
  • RVL 001
  • RVL001

Region versions

RVL-001 consoles were sold for different regions. Confirm the label, supported video standard, system language and game-region compatibility instead of treating every RVL-001 listing as interchangeable.

What to verify in a listing

  • A clear base-label photo showing RVL-001
  • The GameCube controller and memory-card ports under the top covers
  • The console region and included power supply
  • Whether the listing is console-only or includes cables, sensor bar and controllers
