San Francisco-based Green Welling has filed a class action suit against Nintendo on behalf of owners of the new Wii gaming console for selling remotes with inadequate wrist straps. What is a class action suit? Wikipedia has the following definition:
In law, the class action is a procedural device used in litigation to determine the rights of and remedies, if any, for large numbers of people whose cases involve common questions of law and fact.
It didn’t take long for someone to realize the values of the shared problem for nearly half a million Wii owners. The “Wii have a problem” blog was set up for owners to submit their stories and photos of Wii.
Here is a nice CNN report that will give you enough background to start enjoying “Wii have a problem” blog - the website that is a parody and not affiliated with Nintendo. After watching the video, you can proceed to have fun of all aspects of Wii wrist straps.
