I’m not a big gamer, but the concept of motion senseing reomtes on the new Nintendo Wii system seemed very cool…

Then, I found this , a site dedicated to the destruction of items caused by the remotes flying from peoples hands during game play.  Seems that the safty teather is not strong enough to contain a remote in action.  Not good.

Top broken items seem to be Plasma/LCD TVs folowed by A/V gear, Windows (glass, not the OS), and even a wine glass (Don’t drink and Wii?).

Seems that Nintendo is on top of getting the straps fixed, until then, let’s all be careful out there.
