Back in January of 2007, a fire raged through a Kentucky home. The victims of the fire were compensated according to their insurance coverage. But, now that insurance company has filed a complaint (warning: pdf link) against Nintendo with the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Kentucky yesterday, stating “The [DS] was defective in design, manufacture and/or because it failed to warn consumers as to dangers associated with it… due to defects existing within the Product which caused a risk of overheating and fire, the Product was recalled by Nintendo.”
