Hey, I just ordered four of them, and I was wondering what exactly are they for? Are they used for people with bigger hands, so their hands aren't as cramped? Or are they just so if you drop it or something, they don't break? So yeah, what are they for?

And do you use them or not? Do you like them or not? Just wondering.

There used for getting a better grip on the wii-mote so you have a less chance of letting go. I use them a lot and trust me they give you a good grip:)

All of the above. A naked Wiimote feels awkward in my hand after using the jacket.

I only ordered mine because they were free; I didn't plan an actually using them. But they really do make the controller more comfortable. The only inconvenience is taking it off to replace the batteries, but it isn't much of a problem.

I really could not be bothered ever getting them, I like the feel of the Wiimote on it's own, and no I've never ever "thrown" the Wiimote at the TV ever...thus I don't see the point of the jackets.

I used them a little once I got them, but took them off because they wouldn't fit intomy wiimote charger. They give grip and protection if dropped. Since I have the Nyko wii charger, I already have battery cover grips and I don't need the extra protection since I never drop mine.

I don't use them. It's too annoying to have to take them on and off when I recharge the batteries. And they look ugly IMO, I like the look of the Wiimote without them better.

2. Sweat doesn't affect me with them on.

3. Feels great.

I use 'em. The grip is better, although it takes some getting used to. The first time I put them on, they slowed down my reaction time simply because I had to kind of "fell around" for the A button. It didn't feel natural. Now it's fine though.
