Even if you don't have a Wii, chances are you've seen plenty of instances where the Wiimote has slipped from a player's hands and smashed into the owner's TV. Well, if our fix-it didn't help, Nintendo today released an official safety guide for playing with your Wii. It's filled with valuable gems like:

1)Wear the wrist strap when using the Wii Remote

2)Do not let go of the remote during game play

3)Allow adequate room around you during game play

My personal favorite: "If your hands become moist, stop and dry your hands." Thanks, Nintendo. This is just as good as telling us we have to be in shape to play the Wii.
