Get kinky with your Wiimote: “cuff” it up!

Desperate times call for desperate measures. Desperate gamers wanting to avoid dishing out a thousand dollars for TV repair costs call for some rather kinky extremes. After killing hundreds of TVs across the world, the Wiimote has already been able to beef itself up with reinforcement. However, for want of an unshattered flatscreen, some gamers really can’t help playing too safe.

Sniffed out by badam (thanks, dude!), this German gamer Karunga posted his Wiimote strap mod at the InfinitPower forums and lots of people are giving it second glances. Handcuffs? Isn’t that a bit too extreme? What if you lost the key? Well, Karunga seems to be one step ahead of you guys. It’s actually not a real pair of iron handcuffs like those used by cops.

The cuffs he used for the mod are fake and were bought from a sex shop. They’re not made of hardcore metal, but still, they are strong enough not to break when you get carried away with your Wii-playing. There’s still a weak point, of course: the chain-link that fits through the Wiimote.

We’re picturing a couple of people entering a sex shop and looking for “handcuffs to strap onto my Wii.” [cue raised eyebrow] Yeah, that’ll get their attention all right.
