For Cheech: Wii STRAPPER update!


TOKYO/LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Nintendo Co. Ltd. (7974.OS: Quote, NEWS , Research) said on Friday it will voluntarily exchange 3.2 million straps for its "Wii" game console controller following reports of damaged TVs and minor physical injuries caused by flying "Wiimotes."
The company behind video game characters such as Donkey Kong and Super Mario said it is replacing existing Wii remote straps with a wider, stronger version. Individually packaged Wiimotes purchased after December 18 will have the new 1 mm cord.
