i recently saw how many people have been throwing their wii remotes at the TV in hopes of the strap to hold it back but have found out that they break easily and many TV sets have been damaged.

i know thats happened a lot here in the USA, but the wii just came out in japan and i wanted to know if anyone knows if they are experiencing the same problem with breaking their TV sets, or if this is just an embarrassing thing that only happens to americans?

just to clarify things, i do not have a wii, im not asking for help with it. theres all this news about people breaking their TV's because the strap is breaking when they are playing the game and the controller goes flying at the TV, http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/20/wiimote-strap-breaks-controller-destroys-tv/

i want to know if anyone knows if people in japan are having the same problems or not. if you just respond saying 'wow that crazy' im most likely going to warn you for not answering the question, so dont be an idiot

Why would you throw your remote at the TV in the first place? That's not how you play with it...

I know that because my significant other has one.

I know I'm not in Japan, but I just wanted to say that I've swung my Wiimote around like crazy, but not let go of it (of course), and have had no problems with the strap. If anyone feels that the Wiimote will slip off their hand they should just get the gloves that go on it to strengthen their grip.

This only happens to idiots. If I'm playing a game and I let of of what I'm holding and it hits something, then it's not the controller, game, or consoles fault, it's mine because I can't grip something.

You aren't supposed to throw your controller at the tv.

Of course there is the risk of damage if you throw one.

That's like asking "if I throw a brick at a window will it cause damage?"

We have one and it has yet to break. I suggest getting a few back ups and email the company.
