Nintendo is being sued by a insurance company for a little more than $236,000. The company claims that a house fire was started by a faulty DS adapter in January, 2007. (The Article) The lawsuit claims that Nintendo knew the adapter was faulty because of a recall.
What it doesn't mention is that recall was only in Japan and didn't apply to adapters sold in the US, like the one in this case. Do you think Nintendo is at fault here? Should they recall these US adapters?
For that matter, do you have one of these that might be affected by a recall? Supposedly it is just the DS adapter and not the DS Lite adapter.
My DS is a Lite, so I'm not worried about that at the moment, but I did buy a normal DS adapter for by Game Boy Advance SP. It came used, without an adapter, and the DS adapter is compatible.
