But they’ve arrived, and I can now fling my Wii Remote about in gay (notgay) abandon safe in the knowledge that I have replacement straps. Or something.

The tips thingy reads:

Wii
The following tips are advised for safe play:

• Always wear the writst strap while playing.
• Keep a firm grip on the Wii Remote at all times.
• Make sure people and objects are out of the range of movement before play begins.
• Players shoujld keep at least three feet/one meter from their televisions and dry their hands if they become sweaty or wet for any other reason.
  Remember that the Wii Remote is responsive enough to detect minor movements – so excessive and forceful actions are not necessary. Therefore we recommend not to use excessively rapid, violent or wide swinging motions while using the Wii Remote during game play.
