Just be sure to note Nintendo's press release (?) from yesterday.  
 From <http://arstechnica.com/journals/thumbs.ars/2006/12/6/6188>

"Do not let go of the remote during game play. For example, in a game  
like Wii Sports bowling, the ball is thrown by simply releasing the B  
button on the remote, not by letting go of the remote! Hold the  
remote securely and avoid excessive motion during game play. If your  
hands become moist, stop and dry your hands. Excessive motion may  
cause you to let go of the remote and may break the wrist strap. "

You really don't want the Wii remote to impact that big telly at high  
velocity.
