Who flings the Wii? Apparently everyone, eventually

The WiiMote, that wireless, motion sensitive remote control game controller for the Wii, has a major flaw. It seems that the wrist strip that keeps the heavy, working part of the WiiMote it from flying around the house and causing major damage is, well, breaking and allowing WiiMotes to… well, you know.
Nintendo’s president, Satoru Iwata, has acknowledged the potential problem which he attributed to people, “… getting a lot more excited than we’d expected.” Iwata has promised to look into it and have not yet decided what to do if they do find a problem. Might we see a mass recall much like the original Xbox’s power cable?
