There have been some concerns raised against the functionality and life of the wrist band attached to the Wiimote. The controller comes with a small band, which keeps the controller from being flung form the hand, but to many this just isn’t enough.
We are investigating [the Wii Remote strap issue]. Some people are getting a lot more excited than we’d expected. We need to better communicate to people how to deal with Wii as a new form of entertainment.

But when the WiiMote goes flying and hits a person or cracks the T.V. screen, most people would probably feel this isn’t good. Just a thought!
