I think what Is going on here is that people are in fact getting too much into the bowling game, and actually throwing the wiimote. I just find it hard to believe that something as small as a wiimote can break the glass on these tv screens. My DLP HDTV weighs 130LBs and has been dropped from a 4 foot tv stand all the way to the floor with the screen facing down, and it is still fine, a bit scratched but fine. Also my Xbox360 locked up on Full auto and I chucked the controller at my tv, and the glass on it is still perfect. Most TVs have about 1-2CM thick of glass, which makes it seem unlikely that something that weighs only ounces can break that.
