Hi no Seijin

Thank you for the information.  However, you did not reply within the specified amount of time.  I must now turn TDC into a Megaman fansite.

Okay, goofiness over.  Back on topic if there is still a topic to discuss.

I tried... Actually, I was writing my original post while you  happened to post. Then I made an edit talking about what the jackets' purpose was, then I noticed your post, so I made another edit to reply. Please don't turn this site into something else.
What, you expect me to say something witty?

Unless you really, really want me to transform this site.  But I think Shika would verbally and physically maim me if I did that.

Yes, let's just keep it the way it is.

Does anyone have an actual picture of the jackets, aside from the small, animated picture Nintendo has on their website?

Actually, I like Megaman....

I have not seen it, actually, although it looks different from the ones they sell at the store. Looks a bit odd.

Well, the ones they sell at stores like Wal-Mart are pretty much just to make your remotes look cool. Some are even temperature sensitive, so they change color when you hold them. I don't think they provide much protection in the case of letting the remote go.

JDog

Yeah, alot of stores tend to do that alot...

Hi no Seijin

A lot of stores tend to sell stuff a lot?  Is that what you're trying to say?  Well, we certainly didn't need you to tell us that; it's pretty much a given, even with little kids (though they probably don't get the point of having to buy things).

Also, a lot is two words.  Not one word.

No, I was saying, A lot of stores tend to make things look cooler than they really are...

Yes, HNS, please do think before you post. Stores will sell stuff that's gimicky but useless, that's what Jdog was getting at. Now please, no more of that.

 8) he was obviously joking

I was at a wal-mart a few days ago and saw them selling nerf jackets for wiimotes...



Twilight Wolf

Yeah, and they sell Nerf cases for your DS, too, and I've also seen Nerf Playstation 2 controllers. They feel cool, but they're really pretty much just for the look and feel. No other purpose, really...

Well, once our Remote jackets arrive, I'll post some pictures of them, and I'll let you know how they feel.

Well sorry Jdog said something that wasn't all that clear to me.  Trust me, I did review his post and the post before that, and to me it looked like he was commenting that stores tend to sell a lot of stuff.  I'm sorry I can't read minds like you can.  Maybe in the future I just won't ask questions to clarify stuff.  Since I won't be asking questions anymore, might as well practice flipping burgers, huh?  I bet you'd love to see that, JQ.

To Jdog, thank you for clarifying what you said.

Well, we got our remote jackets today! They're not too difficult to install, but they're not as easily removable as Nintendo says they are. However, an added feature, they have is a dust cover for the plug on the bottom of the remote, so you can keep the plug dust-free when it's not being used with anything. They're also designed in such a way that you can keep a better grip on them during gameplay, and they're really pretty comfortable; they don't interfere with the controls at all.

Pictures will come soon.
