    did you hear about the asian chick who was playing bowling and threw the controller into her muli thousand dollar TV? Nintendo sees that as posative advertising.

    It was on the news Christmas morning. They showed multiple tvs that had been broken because the safety strap broke, and the controller went flying into the screen. Their solution was to tell people to ease up a bit.

    Yeah..I heard this also, but don't you actually have to "hold" the controller to play, or is the straps the only things really holding them on?

    Re: Anyone else get a Wii?

    I think it's a safety strap, and it's just not holding up to the rough usage and it's breaking. It's also possible a few people aren't using them. Although I'm sure you have to hold onto the controllers ... I didn't pay close attention to the news as my kids had me opening boxes at that time.

    They have actually recalled the straps. If you have a Wii you can get new ones sent to you.
