Will Nintendo replace Wiimote if damage due to wrist strap breakage?

Hi, my bro was just playing tennis and the Wiimote sliped from his hand, strap broke, remote wacked wall, and now it no longer works. (Don't worry, we've mocked him enough over it already). Anyway has anyone had any luck getting a replacment or fix under warranty?

My other problem is I only have the layby reciept (from the pre-order), so I hope that'll work....

Thanks for any info.

well I figure the strap is meant to protect against this sorta thing, but then he did swing it pretty hard : /

Maybe we can send it in and see if Ninty could repair it or something... I dunno anyone acctually ahd experience with this b4?
