 Got it with MH3 right? Sometimes I get excited and forget the damn thing is attached and bam it will hit the floor when I stand or whatever.... How can I prevent this? I mean I could attach it to my wrist but it gets heavy and annoying after a while... I'm a gamer that Stands to play and also sits periodically (need to see the screen better) So anyone have any cheap solutions? I'm thinking of just applying duct tape and be done with it but then I'm just kind of like.... maybe not don't want all that sticky stuff all over it.

Back before my sister stole my wii I sat down and played and this still bothered me loads. I think it may be a good idea to wear a long sleeve shirt and tuck it in one of the sleeves?

Maybe a dumb question but is there any reason you can't adjust your room so you can sit and play more comfortably? I tend to forget about the wii remote, depending the chair I am in of course.

Not sure if I understand your problem, your saying the wiimote gets heavy?  I know the Xbox 360 controller is a heavier controller, the wiimote seems light to me, so i'm definitely not sure I understand you correctly.

 See how you can only hold the Classic Controller
   now the wii mote just dangles and if I hang it by the wristrap it isn't balanced and it starts to way heavy on one hand more then the other (weight not evenly distributed) so I have to switch during gameplay to make it comfy. If I don't do that I just leave the Wiimote dangling on my bed or whatever and then I forget it's attached and boom whenver I move it hits the floor... It's very very annoying...

I got mine when I bought Tatsunoko vs Capcom.  I just keep my wiimote in my pocket.  It works best that way.  :D

It baffles me how I never thought of this.

I've never tried an official Classic Controller.
 
I have been using a wireless Gamecube controller that has the button placements of the Classic Controllers for that kind of stuff. But with GCN support being phased out, I may have to adjust.

I just sort of stick it on the couch beside me. It's awkward, but it works. 
 
Sometimes I cram it between the cushions so it doesn't go anywhere, but they I run into the same problems as I would with any wired controller. 
 
 It's a pretty stupid design choice.

Put it in your pocket or inside your underwear.

O.k. now I understand what you mean.  Yea I can see how this is such a problem.  Its kind of sad because this is because Nintendo seems to be trying to keep the price down on the classic controller, so now your stuck with having a wire.  For a solution I would say just get a extension cord, here is one listed on ebay.  I would think that this could fix your problem.
