Seriously? 30 seconds? You sound like you have a medical condition. There are some people that do have overactive sweat glands in their hands... But they are the vast minority of the population. And for them, you can buy a controller glove. Problem solved.

Yes, seriously. But it doesn't take that much sweat. You are probably thinking sweat like you'd see on someone's face after running 5 miles or even standing in 100+ degree heat. The sweat I'd get on my hands is like the condensation you'd see on a can of soda a minute after opening it. Not really noticeable, but certainly there.

I get the same thing using a mouse, but it really doesn't affect me much... leave the mouse alone for 10 seconds, and it goes away. It's the full time contact with the remote (and subsequent lack of airflow across the palm) that exasperates the situation. And with the Wii remote, you never really get it out of your hand during game play.

A controller glove would be great, but the unfortunate problem is that by the time you realize you need it, the Wii remote has already hit the TV.
