I'm sorry, but there's parts on the Wiimote that dig into my hand, and it leaves marks. It really pisses me off, that they couldnt design them to be more... hand-friendly. Maybe I'm holding them wrong or something... But any-other way, I cant do the buttons right, so Idunno.

Uh oh... Agreeing with Kwaad... World ending... Just kidding. :D

Actually, I'm surprised that so few of us are calling out the Wiimote for its shoddy design. The controller digs into your hand after awhile, the buttons are poorly laid out, and all-around, it's not a great industrial design for a controller.

The Wii itself is a blast to play but the controller could have used a few more man-hours in the design stage, methinks.

 I'm actually quite surprised that people are complaining about the remote being uncomfortable.  I have fairly large hands and I love the feel of the remote (and nunchuck even more) and know people with small and even medium hands that love the feel of the thing. 

Are you holding with a death grip or something?
