This is just a rumor.

Last week a member of PCgames.com.cn [japanese site?] has a surprised chance to pay a visit to factory that makes PSP, and interviewed a quality controller, and got to know the latest insider news of PSP production, to his surprise, Nintendo’s Wii controller production has also transfered to this factory [seems fishy]

 

The factory has received Wii controller’s purchasing order and its sample, but is still stucked in testing phrase. From feedbacks of testers, currently the Wiimote and nunchuck still have a lot of small issues, such as buttons aren’t sensitive, hard to press 2 buttons together, and even no response occasionally, and the current sample is easy to get damaged, using the controller in normal situation will produce some noise, etc. Entering Sept, if the above hardware problems cannot be fixed, it will directly affect Wii’s selling strategy.

I think this is just a Sony fanboy that would like this to be true ... so hes telling everyone that it is... and lets be hounest.... if there was problems with buttons and stuff, why hasnt anyone mentioned it before when they tryed the Wii at E3 and GDC?

 

oh and come to think of it how would a factory know that the buttons arnt sensitive... they have there own Wii's do they?!?

Bull! Matt Cassamsmsmuhhh (Can't be bothered to spell his name) has already played with a final manufactured Wii and Wiimote and said it's flawless. That Wii and Wiimote would have to come off the production line and the consoles started manufacturing in late July so any problems would have been ironed out before mass production.

 

Besides, Nintendo have their own factories set up in china, they don't share factories with Sony! (Nintendo actually have good quality assurance!)

precisely! why has no one thought of this. it is a bullcrap story. gonintendo hasn't been worth reading for a long time now, they seem desperate to get more news than anyone else so they'll post anything imho.
