Nintendo Slapped With Wiimote Strap Lawsuit Once Again
GameCyteSean writes "GameCyte is reporting that a new class-action lawsuit has challenged Nintendo's Wiimote straps once more. Interestingly, the suit was filed by the same lawyer who led the original 2006 attempt, and now argues that Nintendo hid records of broken TVs from the Consumer Product Safety Commission. From the article: 'This doesn't seem like a spurious accusation, either. Attached to the court filing (PDF) as a matter of public record is the very evidence Nintendo allegedly tried to hide: actual, internal Nintendo documents (PDF) where customer service reps received complaints of cracked televisions and broken Wiimote straps — and the corresponding Monthly Reports that Nintendo was compelled to file with the CPSC as part of their agreement.'"
The Wii might be showing us who should move on to procreate and who should not for the next big step in evolution of mankind.
Hmm you might be onto something there. People who own Wiis presumably fitting into the "should not" category.

You'd be amazed at the swill that passes for beer in the US.
