Or, Wii Remote Jacket if you prefer. In case you're living under a rock, this is a free accessory that Nintendo has released to cushion the Wii Remote, to prevent it from destroying things. In reality, I don't think it'll satisfy in this regard, but it seems to make the Wii Remote easier to hold. it's less likely to slip. Also, I'd imagine if it actually does hit a person (not a TV, it'll still break that.) it'll hurt a lot less. You can request up to four for free. If you care at all about ergonomics (even if you don't care about safety) you owe it to yourself to click a couple of buttons and get some. Why the fuck am I reviewing this? Because it's awesome, and it deserves recognition. That is all.
Where I work, there's these Wii Remote gloves that are being sold for $10, I can't help but think how annoying it must be to try to sell those after Nintendo gives a far superior one away for free. I'm guessing they'll never sell them, and they'll end up in a landfill like those Atari ET cartridges.

I definitely find it easier to hold and it feels less likely to fly out of your hands. Of course, I've never thrown my Wiimote across the room before even without it.
@Clockwork: you might as well anyway. You never know, you might like them, and if not you can give them to another Wii owner who hasn't ordered them yet.
It looks like a little snow suit for your Wii-Mote.
