Believe it or not, infrared LEDs actually run cooler and emit far more intense light than blue or white LEDs due to the lower energy potential (electron volts) require to excite the emitter. It's just that this light is invisible to human eyes. Candles have peak emissions far below the visible light spectrum, so while relatively dim in the visible, they are actually quite astonishingly bright within the infrared spectrum. Wiimotes also use a full-spectrum camera sensor, which has a filter over it to block visible light, so any wavelength of light from IR to UV could potentially excite the sensor. The IR-filter removes the possibility of interference from television sets, which primarily emit visible light.

I think that the only way that Nintendo could be sued for this is if the lawyers can prove that the candle trick was actually authorized or recommended by Nintendo, which it obviously wasn't. Just like you can't sue Nintendo for Wiimote-induced telivsion damage of injuries when the wrist strap was clearly not being utilized. That is why the safety warning is displayed every time you load a game. The candle trick would likely be classified as an unauthorized modification or device and thus nullify any claims. Parents should also teach their children not to play with fire, and hide dangerous objects like matches, lighters, knives, etc.
