Wiimote Straps Result in Class Action Suit

Green Welling LLP filed a nationwide class action lawsuit on behalf of the owners of the Nintendo Wii against Nintendo of America, Inc., in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington. The class action lawsuit arose as result of the defective nature of the Nintendo Wii. In particular, the Nintendo Wii game console includes a remote and a wrist strap for the remote.

That answers the question that lawsuits can indeed get dumber. I am far from being a Wii fanboy, but these issues are ridiculous. How difficult is it to “hold” onto the remote while playing? I cannot seem to grasp who on Earth would need to completely let go of the remote during gameplay. If you do, you are probably -way- into your game.
