Wiimote - a disaster waiting to happen

That reminds me, when I first took my Wii out of the box I put the straps aside thinking "who needs these gay-ass straps?" Well not 10 min after my 7-year old niece started bowling she launched the controller across the room and smacked a picture frame. After that point all family members were required to wear wrist strips.

In other news, the first cases of Wii-elbow are being reported:
