Nintendo Updates Wiimote Straps

December 15th, 2006

Nintendo has updated all new Wiimotes with stronger straps, for all those complaining about flying controllers destroying everything. As you can see from the image above, the new strap is almost twice as thick (0,6 millimeter compared to 1 millimeter). Those concerned that the the old, thin straps won’t be enough to keep the Wiimote in their hands, can get theirs replaced here, for free. Nintendo has stressed out that this is not a recall, it’s simply an update, since the original straps have passed all sorts of safety tests.
