Not bad! Looks pretty sturdy. I also saw this on www.joystiq.com today:

Nintendo responds fast! Smart move

Hmm...wonder if that means the ones you order off Nintendo.com will be the new ones?

That's what I'm wondering too, b/c I haven't seen them anywhere to "buy" or anything. And that would be a smart move to just "discontinue" the thinner straps.

Am I the only one that doesn't understand why people can't just keep hold of the remote? WTF is wrong with people

Ha! I too think it's just ridiculous. It's the same people that sh*t there pants be cause they are too anxious to hold it that send wiimotes flying through air. If you have played the wii for so long that you feel your grip is becoming less than sufficient, take a bloody break. It's not like your wii is turning back into a pumpkin at midnight.

Retarded, someone actually has enough free time to make a site about that.

There was a NY Daily News Article which talked about the Wii straps today. They had 2 pictures. One was the wiimote breaking a TV and the other was a wiimote stuck in a wall. You know the force you have to use to put a controller through a wall? It's insane. Most of the people who broke their TV's or whatever probably never used the strap in the first place.
