Wiimote strap breaks, controller destroys TV

Wii_crackSo there’s this dude who was playing Wii Sports bowling, as his story goes, and his pal rolls a Lebowski and the next thing you know the strap breaks from the force of the swing; his slippery hands let loose, and the Wiimote flies like a missile and cracks his pal’s TV. Believe it or not, having played Wii Sports bowling, this is totally something we can imagine. But you can take one of two positions here: 1) dude or his friend weren’t using the wrist strap, as is recommended before every game starts, and the controller flew out of his hands and smashed the set; dude(s) cut the strap and put it on display for internet pity points (and possibly a new TV courtesy of an anxious Nintendo). Or 2) somehow the Wiimote strap — which, for the record, we think feels sturdy enough — does break mid-game and this guy really is out a 60-inch TV thanks to Nintendo’s fabric engineering team. But we know one thing for sure, that’s a helluva crack and something tells us it won’t be the last.
