Strap on these strapping Wii straps


Remember those replacement wrist straps Nintendo sent out in order to combat the debilitating menace of flying Wii controllers? It appears that those have been dealt the ultimate insult and have been replaced themselves with the variants pictured above. Are the straps even stronger? Possibly, but some gamers are more concerned by the generic aesthetics.

Tipster Ben likens the new straps to "cheap third party junk" when compared to the previous replacements. "Certainly doesn't feel, or look like, anything Nintendo would make. They always make quality things, while these things, certainly, are not."

Life-saving functionality aside, would anyone here be caught dead wearing these?

[Thanks, Ben.]
