How NOT To Play My Wii

Well, there have been reports that the Wiimote Controller is kinda weak. Actually, to be more precise, the wrist strap is weak.
People have been reporting that their wrist staps have snapped and the Wiimote then proceeds to fly out of their hands. In some cases, the Wiimote flies staight towards the player's precious flat screen TV, and in due process cracks the glass. See here for the first report of this.

I, being a natural cynic, believed this to be a hoax to scare people during the Thanksgiving holidays. But this video seems to prove otherwise:


So for anyone hoping to play with my Wii (*snigger*) this christmas, best follow these simple rules:

1.	No sweaty palms - shirts, jeans & towels are the only drying aids allowed (no freakin' talcum powder unless its your own controller).
2.	No swinging like the guy in the video. You don't need to be doing it that hard.
3.	You must let me win (with a minimum win/loss ratio of 0.600)
