If you haven't read the recent Penny Arcade strip regarding the slipperyness of Snail Gaming, then I would suggest you do so.
Done? Good, we may begin.
Nintendo, King of Q'Wii'ns (sorry), has decided to actually look into the issue.
But what issue is there to look at? Is it whether people with the grip of a baby harp seal can keep their supposedly opposable thumbs around a controller?
Iwata's explanation, that people are "getting a lot more excited than we'd expected," (I can only imagine the smirk on his face when he popped that one out) hardly does justice to the extent of the issue: WiiHaveAProblem.com happily parades the failure of human grip and fabric strap.

Reminds me of that poster
"Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups"
Yeah, just look at all the reports of stupid people breaking TV's with their xbox or ps3 controllers. Wait... there aren't any? odd... must be a design issue.
