They're just morons, believe me. If you are paranoid about breaking something, Nintendo just released a new wriststrap that's more reinforced.

This whole situation is being blown completely out of proportion, where the wrist strap, hold onto the controller firmly enough so it wont slip out of your hand, and you'll be fine.

I pulled and jerked and twisted with my wrist strap. Its not going anywhere.

Also, who is so stupid, they forget to maintain a good grip on their wiimote?

If you have a slightest of motor skills and can at least tie a grapefruit in a game of Jeapordy you can use the Wii without posing a danger to yourself or others.

It took 45lbs of strain for me to break a wrist strap, and that was the weaker strap. The people who break their straps are morons.
