Product Recall - Wii

(1/3) > >>

Chas:
I guess the "safety straps" on the Wii remote units are proving to be too weak to do any good. If you own one, they should be sending you new, stronger straps. You did register with Nintendo now, didn't you?

Another case of consumers as victims. Guess common sense has no meaning any more...."I was flailing my arms wildly and wouldn't you know it, the strap broke!" Well, duh....

Spatech_tuo:
My sons waitied in line overnight early December and got a Wii when they were tough to get. It REALLY is interactive so I can understand the issue but I think some of this is due to spastic people throwing teh controllers, not just the strap breaking. They registered for the strap replacements and got them last week. They are an upgrade and I think they'll work just fine.

I am NOT a video game guy so when I play with them it's an absolute joke because my 3 boys are sooo good at it and I feel like a 1-legged man in a relay race but it's a great system. I do like playing the golf and bowling because they're so life like and I already know how to do that so I can hang with them on those games.

I own a Wii and I cant for the life of me imagine how hard you would have to whip this thing to a)get the strap to break and b) have it go through a crt.  
Been playing for a month now and hove come no where close to breaking the strap

Brewman:
Video games have SAFTEY STRAPS!?  Gawd, what next.  A 5 point racing harness and a crash helmet?  Gimme a break. ::)
