Nintendo sued for over $200,000 for faulty DS power plug
December 19th, 2008
The [DS] was defective in design, manufacture and/or because it failed to warn consumers as to dangers associated with it… due to defects existing within the Product which caused a risk of overheating and fire, the Product was recalled by Nintendo.
The $236,304 in damages that an insurance company is trying to get is due to extensive fire damage at a home in Kentucky. The case was filed yesterday, and Nintendo is yet to comment on the situation.
