theres no recall, they maintain its safty when used properly, they are just makein a stronger strap for all controllers after this point, and are offerin people who have them already the chance to return the original straps for the newer one if they want, they never recalled it, as there is nothin actually wrong with it

Get your facts straight.
The controller was not recalled. It was the wrist strap that held the controller snugly in place. And it wasn't even recalled. Nintendo issued a voluntary return policy that if you returned the strap/controller, you can get a new one.
Plus, it is 99% the buyers' fault. Swinging the controller so hard is not neccessary. Small gestures work just fine.
"the recall is just for the strap, but soon the wiimote thing is going to be taken off the market because some other company patented it before Nintendo did. idiots "
No. That is not correct. The accused company patented a "point and click" mechanism, which has nothing to do with the trigger, microhphone, or nunchuck features of the Wii remote.
