Yup, here's the Wii strap lawsuit

As predicted (hey, you don't have to be a genius to predict a lawsuit in this country), somone has filed a class action lawsuit against Nintendo over the wrist straps.

The funny thing is that the suit basically demands that Nintendo do what it's already done: stop selling the thin strap and replace it with a better one. And the press release about the suit even acknowledges that Nintendo has a replacement program in place.

So I'm not sure what this is really supposed to accomplish. But, hey, I'm not a fancy lawyer person.

From the news release:
"The class action lawsuit seeks to enjoin Nintendo from continuing its unfair or deceptive business practices as it relates to the Nintendo Wii.The lawsuit also seeks an injunction that requires Nintendo to correct the defect in the Wii remote and to provide a refund to the purchaser or to replace the defective Wii remote with a Wii remote that functions as it is warranted and intended."

Am I missing something here?
