I guess it's for people who don't want their Wiimote to get scratched.

I just ordered my 4.

Lawlz.

I had four before- blue, pink, green, and red. But they made it really hard to change the batteries.

Yeah, I have a black one... its a pain in the *CEN-1.01-SORD* to change the batteries.


I'll probably get 4, just to have them.

 

[Jeremy]

Well I tried to order mine but it didn't load right and now I'm not sure if I'll be getting it or not...

 

[Micah]

Same thing happened to me.

 

[DarthGohan1]

Mine has a small crack.




I ordered 3, even though I only have 2 Wiimotes... just in case.




My friend paid $10 for a couple of these when he got his Wii. :lol:

If it's free then it's for me. I own 3 remotes but I'll take 4 jackets Nintendo. <_<

That happened to me too. When I tried to do it again, it said that I had requested more than the allotted amount. I haven't checked my account to see if it is being processed or not.

 

[Jman]

It froze up on me too. :/
"please wait 24 hours" >_<

 

[Tyler]

I ordered them

I'd assume so it'd be so you have a better grip.

 

[Jman]

I contacted Nintendo, but I think it's an automated message...

I read that the reason they are doing this is to protect things if the Wii remote is thrown at it =o Or maybe to protect the remote itself... but I doubt that because they don't break easily.

 

[Micah]

I finally got my order through this afternoon.

|sf>It's meant to counteract the complainers that the controllers get damaged.

As I said privately to one of my frineds, if this means that this will end Nintendo's 'controller worries' and gets them started on a hard drive project, I'm all for it.




I also tried to put in my order on Monday and got frozen. I'll have to check back at a later date to see if everything went through.

 

[Furry Sparks]

Or maybe to protect the remote itself... but I doubt that because they don't break easily.

No kidding. My wiimote has been thrown at the ceiling and landed on hard floor and it was fine D= (was my sister not me... I was pissed at her when she did that )

 

[Jman]

Ok, mine is set. I Emailed Dervin and Travis from Nintendo. They were able to summit my order, and I got a confirmation email. I also asked if they were available in different colors, this was the response:

Hello and thank you for contacting Nintendo,

The Wii Remote Jackets are only available in one color and we have no plans of releasing them in other colors. For the latest Wii news, be sure to check our website at www.nintendo.com.
