People aren't getting a grip on Nintendo's new system.

Picture this. You're lining up the perfect shot in Wii Bowling, remote in hand. You set up the shot, swing the remote with all the strength you can muster, and... follow through a little more than you intended.

Somehow the remote leaves your sweaty-palmed grip and bang, smash, there goes your TV, window, photo of your granny, anything that happens to be in the path of the newly liberated remote............"

No doubt some class action lawyer is getting his pencil sharpened. They will find some way to sue because the new Plasma is shattered. Just watch.

Heh. This is the big advantage of projectors - a wiimote will bounce off of a free-hanging screen.
