Nintendo is pretty fast

[Lethal]

Well 2 weeks ago I submitted my order for the new straps. Today I got an email saying that they shipped 4 straps and will be here in 5-9 days. Seeing how there are probably 800,000 people that requested these straps I am pretty impressed by how quickly Nintendo is taking care of their customers.

Nintendo is amazing with customers. The only reason they didn't ship it out like a day after you requested was because they said they wouldn't be sending any out before 12/21.

Got my straps today. Its crazy how dirty the straps get. I didnt notice until my new ones showed up. Also as a little test I decided to see how much force it took to break the old strap. It didnt take as much force as I though it would. The strap broke inside the plastic piece where the string is tied together. Here are some shots of the new straps.

try requesting the straps online again. You can find out if they got your request because it wont let you do it again if they got it.

I just got another 4 straps today. Only took 4 days to get here this time. I used my sisters serial numbers. This time they didnt come wrapped in blue plastic

[Carey]

yeah i got mine on monday.. very fast!

[Vin'Omen]

i still need to order mine, i always forget to write down my serial number.

Psh, I got a confirmation email that they were shipping on 12/28/06 and they still aren't here. And don't think that is cause of the extra distance, planes fly out and in from here every 5-10 minutes.

But if it's free, I'm happy :)
