Hi Ken,
We were quite impressed with the games and I checked online to get the cost of a second controller so that the kids could play against each other etc - the top Google result was "Nintendo recalls 3.2 million hand controllers"!!!!!! These things have been flying out of young hands and damaging LCD , Plasma screens, parents, siblings and friends all over the globe
Seems the wrist strap isn't up to the rough treatment dished out by the kids.
My little girl has already fired this thing across the room, and my 8 yr old boy has an uncanny knack of punching the TV with it!!!!
I'm thinking of putting a fire guard round the telly
RE your tale - all the games have screens urging players to make sure there's no one in close proximity and Health and Safety warnings!!!!
Cheers, take care - those kids are crazy!!!!!!
