Aww aren’t Nintendo nice? They are now giving away free jackets for your Wiimotes. Simply enter your Wii’s serial number (found on the back of the console) and personal details here. You can request up to 4 jackets per console.
It kinda looks like a silicon hoodie to me, and it makes the Wiimote look a wee bit chunky. However, I’ve ordered 4 for my Wiimotes and I’m curious to see what they feel like, so I’ll reserve judgement until I’ve tried them out.
From the 2nd October 2007 Nintendo will be including a jacket with all Wii hardware, so you’ll be able to see these jackets on the shelves from mid-Oct (according to Nintendo’s website).
Got a Wii? Then time to get protected. Get your jackets now!

Is this is the most pointless free giveaway ever, or is it to protect those who still insist on throwing their Wii at the tv?

Yeah, it does see a bit pointless. We’ve always held on to our Wiimotes so there’s been no problems. Even with the semi-drunk people playing Wii bowling last night, everything was ok. Maybe I was telling everyone to strap up as soon as they got their hands on a Wiimote!
