It seems that Nintendo has been actively moving around some of the legal information on their Wii remotes, and it’s happened more than once! You might feel like checking your Wii remote later on and seeing which version you have. Both the ones I have are spotless on the outside, as I picked them up at launch. Below, though, you can see Nintendo moving around some patent and FCC information off to the outer side of the Wii remote. There have been some additions to the remote inside the battery compartment.

It’s not like it really matters - you’re probably not looking at the sides of your remotes while playing. But it makes you wonder what the reason for all the changes are. Maybe all these different versions, along with all the many versions of the Wii remote strap, might be considered rarities someday. Which ones do you have?

Thanks to Homer Simpson for the tip!
