Six major hardware manufacturers received warning letters from the US Federal Trade Commission earlier this month, which stated that their warranties might conflict with US law. In response, Nintendo and Sony have announced that they will update their policies, according to US Gamer.

The six companies were ASUS, HTC, Hyundai, Microsoft, Nintendo, and Sony.

For companies who are so large, this should have been implemented as soon as they were made aware of the new laws. I think that they have held off just because anyone who bought items during the transition period would be exempt from the new warranty stipulation. I would be a hard task master and just fined said companies, no warning letter, for not complying within the timescale, nada, zero, zilch ... it's not like they can't afford it and yes i am a bit of a [moderated] at times :D


Oops, apologies for bad language folks. :censored: It won't happen again.
