Did I not bring this up in a different thread?

Barns looks like the strap is of no use lol.

My wife almost killed me with the Wiimote playing tennis, I felt the thing nick my ear she was swinging it so hard

Dude the videoon that site with the superfan is funny as hell. What a retard.

Yea he had to be drunk or on something. 5 days straight no sleep? Thats just insane.

I don't care if the controller is handcuffed to your arm....there are some players that get so into the game and so upset by some of the events in the game that they just feel the need to release their frustration on the controller by turning it into a projectile.....my friend is a prime example....you dont want to get around him when he's playing sports games

And there are some players that sweat more than other players. Controller will still go flying even if they arent that into the game.

Whats worse? Breaking $1000+ tv or a $50 remote. Or even worse breaking both?

i am sure the controller is fine if used properly. the connection from the wrist to controller looks like it is from a camera though and i am sure something different can be used.

If you throw the remote at your TV and break it then thats your fault, not nintendos. I had a friend throw a sega genesis controller at his TV and it wasn't even motion sensitive

Nintendo is putting out a recall on the straps.

they're making it thicker to help prevent it from snapping.

Haha. I can relate to this. I hit my finger in the ceiling fan trying to do a smash in tennis! Hahaha.

CBC News ran this story just last night haha

made me think of this thread

that's why i stick to sitting on my lay-z-boy with my good ol fashion ps2 contoller.

hells yeah lol

lol i don't even own a lay-z-boy chair

we have one.

the strap, if cinched properly, isn't going to fly off the user's arm. the cincher keeps it nice and tight. i'm convinced the people who are breaking things with their controllers are either not using the strap as they should, or are merely throwing the controllers around.

on top of that, the games DO NOT require users to get as energetic as they do...and if they're sweating that much from small arm movements, they REALLY need to get off the couch. trying to sue Nintendo for their own stupidity/laziness is the "coffee is too hot" style lawsuit.


in other words...LAME.
