It’s over. The Wiimote straps have been quietly replaced. This includes console packaging, Wiimote-only packaging, and even the Wii Play combo packs. The new straps may or may not have an intricate, highly top secret titanium/adamantium alloy mix sew into the fabric. Nintendo isn’t saying, but I’m speculating it’s true. Back to having fun.

The one in the box with mine today is the old style, I will look at the Wii play one in a bit.
Congrats to Jack on the short post. Way to keep it under 200 words!
The Wii play remote also has the poo strap. I hope bigN are doing a free replacement scheme!
O har har 😛
In a few years, the old straps are totally going to be collectors items. It has been foretold! Just you wait and see!

Some idiots out there will try to break the newer straps. I can guarantee it.
