For the first time ever I played Wii without the remote jacket. WOW, what a difference! It feels great, and the rumble is stronger. Does anyone actually prefer the feel of the remote with the jacket on?
I think its a pretty awesome addition. It gives the controller a nice weight, and comfy feel. I like how Nintendo handled the redesign of their controller instead of their normal route. (Note the Wavebird, SP, and DS Lite) Yeah, it is a different situation, but I still like the cheaper way out.. Ironically I did buy a Lite. I can't resist the shiny.
The one downside is I cannot play Brawl at all with the Jacket on. So I find myself taking the jacket off frequently.
I always have the jackets on. It helps to keep the wiimotes clean, plus it sits more nicely in my hand. Although, it feels appropiate to play 2-button VC games with the jacket off. Feels more like the old NES/TG-16 controllers.
I don't use the jackets any more. I only ordered them from nintyendo because they were free.
It's a lot more comfortable when it's naked

yup i totally agree. i also had a problem when i played MP3 with the jacket on seems like the cursor would just disappear from the screen so i said nape i'm going raw and like BuryMe said its better naked (no sexual pun intended)
I stopped using the jacket a while ago when I bought a charging dock. It's a pain to keep taking off the jacket and then put it back on after charging. I find the remote far more comfortable without the jacket and it gets less dirty where the button holes in the jacket are.
I play with the jacket and will leave it that way since playing without the jacket can make the controller itself dirty and scratched....wassup432
How about washing your hands and cutting your fingernails? Seriously though, I can't stand the feeling of that rubber thing so I never use it. Good news are that I didn't get pregnant yet.
i dont use jackets just because, they are unessecary to me as i don't thorw the Wii mote across the room , and they are just irritating as i have to change my rechargeable batteries alot.
When I have young kids and intoxicated people playing I will put them on, otherwise I like them bare. Nintendo have spent millions on the product in order to save millions in claims, now that Motion + is on the way I imagine that they will need to re-invest on new ones.
I don't use it because it gets annoying having to take it off everytime I use teh Wii Wheel, I use the zapper, or I use the Guitar Hero guitar. It gets too annoying.

I think I never used the wiimote jacket in my life.
I think it's more comfortable with them on, and it keeps my hands from getting as sweaty. I really like them, but now I have a Nyko charger, so I just leave them off, because it's annoying to take them off when ever I'm done.
I'm the only one in my family that uses the Wii Remote jackets. I like them. It feels kind of... awkward when I play with a naked Wii Remote now.
However, when I play games like Excite Truck, Super Paper Mario, Super Mario Brothers, and the like, where I must hold the Wii Remote like I would a NES controller, I prefer to take the Wii Remote jacket off.
I don't know I haven't used it naked for a long time but what I remember is that it got really hot in the back side because of the batteries and I felt a bit unconfortable about it (especially in summer)
