Well they have done this sort of thing in the past...
Buit I don't think it's poor quality materials we're talking here. I think it's the fact that this is the first time a strap of this kind has been used in a device like this which requires a lot of stress to be put on the strap.
The only other times I've seen these straps used is for handheld electronic devices like a camera or something like that. The idea is to have it tied to your hand so if you drop it, the strap catches it so it doesn't break on the ground. On the other hand, the Wiimote has you doing some crazy things sometimes.
Also, I've spent the last hour periodically putting stress on my DS's strap and it hasn't broken yet... I'm almost at the point where I'm about to throw my DS around by the strap to see if it holds... still holding.
