A failed attempt to stop me!

Posted: 11/17/2006 by Digitally Roasted

You gotta love working in a cool environment… that is until you’re almost killed by a flying video game controller!

I work for the online department of pretty large news company and today they’re reviewing the Nintendo Wii along with Wii Sports. But someone forgot to tell them that the Wiimote/Controllers come with wrist-straps for a reason: to try and keep them in your hand and not flying halfway across a populated news atrium while you’re playing digital tennis.

Luckily nobody was hurt but there were a few close calls. At least, Nintendo did make one sturdy motion sensing controller, lol!
