      Tips

      • Try thinking carefully about what you're trying to imitate/perform. You may be over exaggerating the motions inadvertently. Small motions may register better than unnecessarily large ones.
      • Most games require you shake the controller instead of swinging it.
      • The Sensor Bar can be placed above or below your television.

      Warnings

      • Be sure to wear the attached wristband during any strenuous play to avoid accidental remote tosses.
      • If you have a thin wrist strap, you must replace it with a new version of the wrist strap. The reason is that the old version can break easily due to its poor strength. Refer to Nintendo.com to know the old and new version of the wrist strap. When you are on Nintendo.com, go to the customer service section and look for "Important Wrist Strap Information".
