Default Wii Have a Problem

The Wii's innovative controllers have allowed game designers to find new ways for gamers to interact with their console, less button bashing, more movement. But was the public ready for such a radically new control system to play their games with? It seems Nintendo may have overestimated the physical coordination of at least some of it's customers.

Is a blog detailing the damage done to people, property and pets by "over enthusiastic" use of the Wii's controller.

There's also other Wii related stuff on the site including these guys:

this is old as the dinosaurs, but yeah gotta lol at the poor guys who chuck their wiimotes at their expensive hdtvs

I've got one and I don't seem to have a problem. For the strap to break you have to be dumb enough to let go of the controller in the first place <.<

My friend has a Wii. Its a modest, nice little fun system. I really like its ability to surf the web allowing you ro control the cursor via the motion sensing on the Wiimote.

Yup, this strap dealio is old news to me aswell. Here is a youtube vid of some guy that hucks a Wiimote at his TV.

This is why I got a PS3.

Sure it's more money, but I prefer the games for PS like FF13 and MSG4 which look so good. Just my opinion.

I know it wasn't exactly hot off the press news, but old as the dinosaurs seems a little harsh . I know the Wii was available in the US before it was over here, but still it's only been out for a few months.

Yea! Just because you American guys have had the Wii and other consoles longer than us is no need to show off!

Some of those are quite funny, a guy even hit his girlfriend in the teeth, ouch! I want a Wii!!!!
