The increasing reports of people damaging their television sets, themselves or committing other random acts of random, minor, Wii Sports-related violence has prompted Nintendo President Satoru Iwata to launch an investigation into the claims and develop a new way to tell consumers: calm the hell down!
"Some people are getting a lot more excited than we'd expected," Iwata said at the Foreign Correspondents Club in Japan, reports the Associated Press. "We need to better communicate to people how to deal with Wii as a new form of entertainment."
A Nintendo spokesperson briefly elaborated on Iwata's statement, acknowledging they were looking into the problem but had no specific solutions as of yet. Don't be surprised of Nintendo starts offering free, stronger wrist straps at retailers and online, though -- one of mine already broke from normal use.
