Hehe. This isn't as amusing as the story of people who are complaining that they're using too many muscles. Edit: Woo post 1001!
I haven't read any of the accounts, but how fast do you have to be waving the remote around to break the strap? Even if it's a cheap piece of crap, it should take a moderate amount of effort to throw the wiimote so hard it snaps the strap (at least i would think...).
It's not breaking the strap, it's the ****** little plastic thing they use to tighten it to your wrist. You'd think after YEARS of practice (fighting for the remote, obviously), men would have a better grip.
You would, but don't be too sure tbh. Men are also excitable children, and prone to accidents. Anyway, what the hell are you posting for Bindi? Where's your Wii dammit? And why aren't you on it?
a) Im at work b) My Wii doesn't arrive til nearer Christmas thanks to play getting the thick end of it from Nintendo and not having enough units to fill most pre-orders. When are you MORE excited then the few moments before orgasm?? And I dont see guys ripping their bits off everyday, do you?
Oh no! My 12 year old 14" CRT broke and it's Nintendo's fault so I'm claiming for a new set. You need to be a complete tool to launch one of those things, even drunk.
Its sad when you need to have disclaimers for every little thing, one rural area has had to put signs on popular climbing routes which spoils the landscape no end because heaven forbid someone who climbs actualy knows what they are doing. If you let go of the Wii when your moving your hand at stupid speeds which makes no diference to the performance of the thing you are doing ingame then you deserve a busted TV. What ever happened to people using common sense?
3 feet? man I not got that kid of room in my flat. They think we all live in huge american houses lol I live in a tiny box
Maybe it's just that these gamers aren't used to moving around unlike 99% of the population - these are probably the exact same people complaining of the aches and pains. Kudos to Nintendo for introducing a refreshing and innovative product.
Well so much for the cover of the remote analogy... The problem isn't gripping it so much as the smooth plastic can become slippery if you tend to have sweaty palms. Still, you don't need to get THAT into the game! Email they sent out to everyone was pretty amusing though. I know they've already upgraded the straps to have thicker cords that shouldn't break as easily; I also heard a rumor that they're going to send out upgraded straps to everyone (I know they've already replaced broken ones) but can't confirm it (and in any case won't find out for at least a week and a half since I registered my home address, not school)
