The Play 'n Learn bundle issue cleared up, sort of

The UPC code currently associated with the "Wii Play 'n Learn" name has been revealed as the most boring of all new hardware configurations, according to Chris Kohler: the regular Wii package with a Wiimote jacket included. But something as pedestrian as that probably wouldn't get an edutaining new name, right?

1up contacted Nintendo about the UPC, and Nintendo told them in no uncertain terms that "Wii Play 'n Learn" was definitely not related to any hardware bundle, including the one it's associated to. They cited a possible mistake in the UPC filing. That means that "Wii Play 'n Learn" is something else. Our guess is that it's probably some kind of game which enables you to learn-- while playing.
