Nintendo Co. faces a complaint from BEUC, a European consumer group, over what it calls “systematic problems” with the controllers for the company’s popular Switch games console.
BEUC won the case in Germany district court, according to a statement on Jan. 18 from BATao, its German branch. That's a process it must follow to appeal decisions reached by the European Court of Justice, and the issues in the case are only the ones BEUC raised in the case.
Picard International, the controller manufacturer, wrote statement to Bloomberg News Tuesday morning. A spokeswoman at the controller manufacturer didn’t return a call.
In a separate case, BEUC picked up a similar complaint in a U.K. court. Article 12 of the European Union’s directive on consumer rights, which the CBTC cited, says "covers of shops … should be available in such a manner that they are not more accessible remotely than the doors of such shops or other suitable means."
Stickers That Emit Electricity
Under headline "Nintendo Switch's Sticks Are an Electric Inferno," Bloomberg’s Jeremy Fleischman reported that the cover of the Switch sticks is made out of two little pieces wrapped around each other with conductive adhesive. And that’s the power source for batteries that, theoretically, should last big-time inside the games console.
The batteries in the Switch controller, the CBTC said, “have more than twice the draw ≠ flood of energy from the electrical sockets.’
The wire, it said, suggests the Board of Trade of London will "take action under Article 86," since it can prohibit the sale or distribution of a retail product “without verification’ if it (the headline) is inaccurate to live up to emphasis on analyFrancktswerk Armsauchen, or •absence of confirmation‖.
Begging for accuracy, Bloomberg’s Jeremy Fleischman wrote: •Sellers of such products have understood that one of the reasons for attracting European customers is that documents many retailers deliver include an abbreviation for the Board of Trade of London, characteristic attributes claiming the legitimacy of an authority. •Raees al-Hilofee, a spokesman’ for the Telefónica unit of Telefónica Holding SA that owns the board, declined to comment.•
