Posted December 15, 2006 Thats not a recall. Its an offer to replace broken straps for free. I wish people would read the news properly. Now watch the hysteria spread across all the fan sites. EDIT: actually just read elsewhere, that the bbc were the ones that screwed up and have now toned down their article. BBC have changed their article to represent the truth. No Recall. BBC spreads nasty rumour shocker. indeeed, all i did was post it to bring it to people attention that Nintendo are doing something about it. I wasn't trying to stir up hysteria of any description, my radio came on this morning and i heard it on the news so i looked on the net and posted what i found and yep, the BBC has totally rewritten the original article that was up this morning. hence the now erroneous first post.

Posted December 15, 2006 well its bullshit if you tell me, all this is making it worse for us who dont have a wii. furthur delays!!! also, apparently nintendo have rejected the claims. PARIS (AFP) - The Japanese electronic game maker Nintendo said it was not recalling motion-sensing controllers for its new Wii model but would exchange wrist straps that have broken inadvertently http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20061215/bs_afp/afpentertainmentjapan_061215151501 EDIT: apparently they are having problems with the DS adaptors. "Nintendo also said it would recall about 200,000 AC adapters for its hot-selling DS and DS Lite handheld game machines in Japan, because they may overheat and cause burns on rare occasions." http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20061215/tc_nm/nintendo_ds_dc_3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
