Hey, looky here! I'm a bit late on this news, but Nintendo Australia are giving out a free Wii Remote Jacket if you call them up and provide them your serial number. Quite handy for those who frequently suffer Wii-mote related injuries, or paranoia of their controls being flung into expensive TV screens...
(from the Nintendo website)
Australia, Melbourne, October 2, 2007 - Nintendo is committed to ensuring an innovative and unique game play experience on the Wii. To help players adapt to this new style of play and provide additional protection we have created a protective cover for the Wii Remote - the "Wii Remote Jacket".
We recommend to fit the "Wii Remote Jacket" to the Wii Remote in order to enhance your grip and provide additional protection if the Wii Remote is accidentally thrown or dropped during game play.
The "Wii Remote Jacket" is being offered free of charge to all Wii owners.
To request a "Wii Remote Jacket", contact NINTENDO CUSTOMER SERVICE on (03) 9730 9822 Monday to Friday 9:00am to 5:00pm (EST)
