Wii remote strap issue - Dec 07, 2006 23:14

Surely, getting bashed in the face by the remote during a particularly intense session, is all part of the fun of the Wii?

There' s an entire site devoted to it. It' s pictures and videos of flatscreens and laptops and windows being damaged by the ' mote.

People are tools! My friends and I have played the games, and you don' t need to get all CRAZY with the damn thing!

They should probably toughen up the wrist-strap, though.

Nintendo have already started using thicker cords for the strap. Personally i don' t see how people could be playing so stupidly that the remote flies out of their hands...

Yeah, I' m so careful with mine, that I don' t even feel the need to wear the wrist strap.

People who do this need to learn to get a better grip...and stop flailing around like morons...it isn' t that hard to move it.
