People actually throw controllers when they're angry!? I never did that when I play games. Sure, I may have smashed the controller against the tv remote that was next to me, but to chuck it at the tv,

Please don't lash it out on the tv.

Its not only that they throw the remote though, the strap that keeps the contoller to theri hands even if theyre all sweaty sometimes breaks. Still gotta feel bad for those people, they just got a wii for like $250 and now are gonna have to spend more on a nice big tv lioke they had (some of these people had nice tvs... and one broke a laptop LOL) I read some of this before, if i get a wii ill be sure to strap a few extra straps to me from the wii.

Crazy kids and people these days. *tsk tsk tsk* Laughing Razz Reminds me of the times my little brother used to throw the controller on the carpet every time he loses. More stories of people's stupidity. At least it entertains me and makes me feel better knowing I would never throw the controller for any reason.

Penny Arcade comic from week ago.

I don't have Wii, but does it really need to be swung so violently?

yeah, to clarify for everyone... people aren't purposely throwing their controllers, but rather the controllers are coming loose from people's hands cause they're getting a little too into their games. Like the Penny Arcade and silverfox say above: you don't need to be doing backflips and stuff to make the wiimote work, just simple hand movements.

and yeah, broke straps are apparently a problem too

... haha... broken laptop.... sucker!

LoL!!!!

I saw this coming, people are too into their games. Maybe they should have a strap that comes along with that remote so it stays on the player's hand. But that's just silly. Laughing

Nice pic silverkitsune. Smile

It was kind of expected that people would accidentally fling their wiimote. So far, I have not experience any of this with my wii as of now. Shocked

Awesome pic silv. XD I like it.

Maybe they should get a projecter so the screen would be on the wall instead of the tv....

HEH, not this kind of sites again. Now the destroy my console websites now this, BLEH...

Cant they do anything useful from themselves?

BTW, I've played the 360 awhile ago, and may I remind you, its not a console that should wrecked with, and not because its expensive either...

LoL, whatever helps get them more money rite?

Cause I doubt parents would buy the system for lil kids who could toss the sucker at their tvs. LoL.

I'm serious, why the hell they be swinging so hard... Confused
