Isn't that the truth!! A friend of mine has a Wii and took it over to a friends house that she was housesitting for. Well a group of friends came over and they proceeded to get very drunk and play Wii....someone didn't have the strap around their wrist and threw the wiimote at the TV and damaged their HDTV screen. So, they had to replace the TV..funniest part is that the guy had like a 37" and the drunk girl that damaged the screen thought it was a 40 something " and bought him a bigger TV!! I am trying to be very careful with mine and make sure I keep the straps very tight!!
So I finally played on a Wii for the first time a few weekends ago and I love it (I think I know what I am getting myself for Christmas!!) I loved the bowling!! we played tennis and baseball too, and of course Im new and wasnt paying much attention the the wrist band, and of course, it ended up slipping out of my hand, luckily it didnt hit the tv or anything, so I didnt have to replace anything, but I will be sure to use the wrist bands from now on!!
