Come on. When he jumped up and down like that you knew something was going to break.
That's what you get for using accessory add ons.

"Buy now and we'll throw the TV in for free!"

They showed everyone how not to play the Wii.

This is why I'm having trouble getting a plasma screen tv. If a wiimote goes through my old tv, it will bounce off.

Old world craftmanship ftw.

Make sure that your accessories are pushed on all the way...

... best scene save of the day using a phrase beloved of pornographers...

I was actually tempted to get a sword attachment, as I like swinging swords more than just holding the remote like one and there are appropriate games for it. I'm less tempted now ^^;

I love the fact that right after he threw the peripheral at the screen, it said extended holiday return policy at the bottom of the video, because they knew people would want to start returning it after that incident.

This guy is a retard however because when a person stands right next to the tv and makes exagerated movements like that, of course the crappy peripheral is going to hit the screen. I also think that this is a relly stupid bundle because some of the peripherals that are included are for games that are not even included in the bundle and even if you buy a game that does use one of those peripherals it usually already bundled with most of those games so what is the point?

I've personally never seen a Wii remote/accessory get thrown into any TV. Seeing that made me laugh. And then it made me wonder why they didn't throw in a free roll of duct tape with every order. Certainly made my day much, much better watching that video.

Wow...Those guys are really emptying consumer wallets with cheap plastic tat being attached (horribly) to the Wii Remote.

Though I kind of wish the TV ended up more broken just to make it more hilarious, but it's still funny to see this.
