My Wii mote is giving me mild electrical shocks!

No joke! what do I do?? I rang Nintendo customer support and they just told me its a new motion effect they packaged into their new Mario game! I reckon thats a load of BS because I live on a farm and have touched Electric fences before so I damn well know what a electrical shock is! What do I do? is there anyway to fix this? or will I have to buy a new controller?

you're doing it wrong.....

seriously though get a new controller, its not suppose to do that. Also see if you can return it to whever you bought it so that you can get your money back.

Now you're playing with Power!!!

Seriously though, I'd take that controller back because that's a defective unit.

It must be static, touch some metal before picking up your wiimote. Seriously, 2 AAs don't have enough voltage or amperage to even give you a tingle.

well it's a good thing you never sat on it on accident!

nice joke thread though... I've touched a few electric fences in my day too though... talk about ouch!

Uhhh...Deja Vue?

Are you using a wii glove thingy when this happens?

lol sue them

HAHAHA that made my day "playing with power" haha but yeah return it...

Give it to your buds to use when they come over. > :D

And yeah, take it back.

Umm, I don't think plastic is a very good conductor. Maybe you're insane? Are you sure it's not the rumble?brandontwb

I'm thinking he's mistaking the "electrical shocks" for the rumble as well. I've been shocked before and I would say that if you were to mistake any game controller's rumble for a mild electical shock it would be the wiimote's

I can't believe you guys are taking this seriously...

Obvious joke is obvious. Obvious from the moment I saw the Mass Effect avatar and realized this is the guy from SW who likes to make mild, seemingly harmless troll posts, and watch them grow like wlidfire (at least methinks :/). Bravo, you've tricked people yet again :lol:.

am i only one who knows how to fix this problem? take the controller, place it in your back pocket, and go to your nearest video game retailer. then lay down in a parking space. i promise it will solve all of your problems.
