Why not 8?

Nothing angers me more than odd numbers.

I think its stuck at 7 due to Bluetooth technology at the time.

Afaik, if there were 8 or more the connection became unstable and couldn't be used properly.

Although I could be wrong.

This limitation sounds strange because it seems that the Wii can actually have 8 controls synchronized at the same time (Just Dance 2 has local multiplayer mode for 8 people). I wonder how Nintendo is doing it.

could they add another connection via update or does that require some work on the hardware?
