Oxytocin may be something of a wonder compound, spurring childbirth and creating love, but it's not exactly a performance enhancer and certainly not a cure-all - not for shyness or autism, or any other social dysfunction.

Legally, of course, Nintendo isn't obliged to do anything except enjoy the free marketing ride it's getting from all the Wiimote noise.
