I like the way he compliments "nintendo craftsmanship" because the remote didn't break... after it broke?

BAD! Because the strap for the controller broke it flew out of the guys hand and smashed his 60" plasma TV up...

Maybe insurance or even Nintendo could pay up?

Psh, a) the guy has a better tv than me and b) his friend essentially threw a controller at it, he deserves a broken tv methinks... Also I love the comment

"Jesus how much force was he bowling with?

I REMOVED the wrist strap on my remote because thats just how I roll, I'm fuckin hardcore :cool: "

This is like when someone dropped their GameCube down the stairs because Nintendo's carry handle snapped...

How can a carry handle on a gamecube snap just by carrying it down some stairs? The gamecube is tiny and the handle is a massive chunk of plastic! If the Xbox had a handle then I could understand that breaking but a tiny lil thing like the gamecube?!?! Bet the guy just dropped his gamecube and then broke the handle to try and sue nintendo or something...

Psi speaks the truth, it might be a small box but its just really condensed :) Plus, the handle is so big and chunky the finger space isnt big enough. I'm not surprised it snapped and fell down the stairs, I wouldn't trust the handle anyway. I would have thrown the controllers down after it as well, worst controller design ever.

The GameCube is actually pretty heavy. Almost as heavy as a PS2 funnily enough.

Lies! I have both, and you sir are fibbing!

The Cube might be as heavy as the PS2 Lite edition, that one is so tiny :).

So, anyone actually put off a Wii because of this? I still wants one, my precious...

My plan is to give it another week or two yet to see the general reaction around the internet before I buy one. This has been noted, but it certainly isn't a critical issue by any means.

Not as bad as the 3 hand grip design for the N64 :P. I was so confused what the 3rd was for...

What? You don't have three hands? Oh my goodness... But really, in my opinion the N64 controller was pretty good, apart from the hard to reach C-buttons. The z-trigger was pretty good, and the nice big A and B buttons kept things simple - the Gamecube has about a million buttons occupying the same space. They're actually stacked up on top of each other in a vain attempt to cram them all in, even the buttons have buttons.

Agreed Tet, i loved the N64 controller, and no joshing with games as brilliant as golden eye and mario kart64 who needs all this new fangled rubbish.
N64 ftw everytime. if i want to enjoy a graphically spangly game i use my PC as it gently ravages consoles and if i feel the need to play some console style games then its all about the N64 out she comes and i hear the greatest phrase ever.
