3 times at least for me. It's come down quite hard (but never for than a distance of a foot or two) but still works fine. I'm glad Nintendo hardware is sturdy; I've dropped my 3DS a couple dozen times haha (I'm clumsy)

I never dropped my Gamepad; I did drop my 3DS twice both from a distance of about 4 to 5 feet.

I don't really see how you can drop it, but if you do, maybe you should try to fix it to your hand? By using the Wii remote bands maybe?

Nope.

I've mastered the fine art of keeping my hands closed whilst the GamePad (or any other controller) is within their grasp, so dropping hasn't been a problem for me.

I guess I didn't drop it those few times, I was walking across my living room and brought my foot under the charging cord, making it fall off the couch.

I definitely do not treat my GamePad like a baby at all.

I've never tried to put my GamePad into the blender.

Zero, don't plan to either, as I know there won't be any replacement gamepad to buy for a while. No one uses the gamepad except me. :P

I never dropped it out of my hands. It has fallen off the bed, however, when I had to get up quickly.

0. Never dropped my 3DS or DS either. I'm very careful with these sort of things.

I've only dropped it once so far luckily. It's still in perfect shape though :p.
