A couple of things.

1) That article is stupid, it's offering replacement not recalling, whoever wrote that is a dumbass. On some real talk. I think it's a miss-translation, in the Daily mail they were giving 2 screenshots of people pretending to play the Wii yet they haven't even got their straps on tight correctly, it looks unbelieveably loose and it's giving Nintendo a bad name.
2) Funny how it's the U.S going through the chucking controls through windows and what not right now yet so far I haven't seen any Japs or European gamers gone through that problem. Unless someone can show me one or two articles?
3) If it is literally a re-call, where's the website giving instructions on how to get replacement straps or something? I believe the only way is to call Nintendo itself and file a complaint about your Wii strap.
4) Has anyone broken some sort of ornament in their house playing the Wii on dubcc forums yet?

And i'm glad you're not keeping them >_>.

Seriously you'd have to be a Grade A dumbass to take things too seriously and launch them into furniture, if they do stupid shit like this on a game then real life they've probably been banned from the tennis courts/bowling alleys.
