Do you use the Wiimote protector?

What do you think of the rubber layer you can put on Wiimotes? Do you use it?

For some reason, I find it kind of uncomfortable.

yes I use it... to avoid GTD's game transmitted diseases.

No seriously, my hands sweat like a freak so it keeps it from collecting nasty gunk, plus it's a cushion if I drop the remote or whack it against something.

Also, I hate it, but I'm one of those people who has to keep my gaming stuff in perfect condition. One tiny scratch or ding, even if invisible will annoy the heck out of me.

No.

I find it to be pointless.

I NEVER FILLED OUT THE NINTENDO OFFER TO GET THEM!:cry:

I dont think the offer is still around either..... Woe is me.

I use it normally except for when playing mario kart.. duh..

I think it still is on their website. I didn't order one of the replacement wrist straps until a year and two months after they made that offer. Just look at the website.

I did, but when I got the plastic accessories(Zapper and Wheel), I stopped using it since it was a pain to just put it back on there when I was probably going to stick the Wiimote back in one of the shells.

Thnx for the heads up, I couldnt find it while navigating the website, but i found the page via google.

Ima order some protection now!:D

I use it all the time. Not for playing video games, though.

My baby daughter is teething and I've found that she really enjoys chewing on the rubber protector thing if it's on a Wiimote.

Kinda wierd, I know, but it makes her happy. I usually take the rubber thing off to play games.

lol, same here. I don't really want it anyways...

I Never Use the Wii Protector!!!

Maybe only for Wii sports but not for all other games i find it annoying. :)

No, because I got one of the launch Wiis, and I have to like... order them. I know they're free, but when I used them at my friend's house who just got a Wii, I found them... kinda strange-feeling. I like the feel of a bare wii-mote on my hands...

wait... oh shi-

only during intense wii sports games

I use it.

As far as ergonomics go, I've always felt that the Wiimote had a poor design, unlike the nunchuk. For me, the cover makes it a lot more comfortable, and less sweaty too.

No I don't. (silicon is allergic to my hands :P ) I use it when friends come visiting, though.

Hey man, make a poll for this!

When they first came out I ordered one from Nintendo.

A week later I bought another controller and realized I had 3 controllers now so I ordered 2 more.

Still haven't got them.

The last time I didn't use it, I found a kid in my house 9 months later...

So yes, now I always do.

Actually, they are now called GTI's. "Game Transmitted Infections"
