OUCH!!!

Saw a segment on the news today about Wii users getting hurt by overdoing it and having to go to doctors and chiropracters. So I did a search and came up with these other "Ouch" moments! One of the links has a story about a woman almost killing her dog - saw that one on the news and thankfully the dog ends up being okay. I had one minor mishap myself while playing Samba De Amigo. I was swinging my arms up and down doing a side movement and I accidentally whacked one of my hands with the remote so I learned quickly to be more careful and aware of what I was doing! And that photo of the woman's knee is painful to look at!!

Injuries Grow Along With Wii Popularity


I did have to laugh though that the news segment I saw tonight about Wii related injuries showed a mom bowling with her kid and neither one of them were wearing the wii strap!

Happy gaming everyone but be careful!!

Yikes, looked at all your links. The knee was the worst for me to see. Well, there's risk in everything, but, the way I look at it, the odds are in our favor by getting fit. I suppose I could go out there and give my Wii a small, but firm, scolding and advise it that any such misbehavior is unacceptable, but, after that, I'll give it a hug and call it tough love.

Yuck!

We've had several close calls, but thankfully no serious injuries or damages. Although at times I feel like chucking the wiimote at Maya.

I wonder when Nintendo gets sued?

Yeah, that knee one was hard to look at but then again she was playing wearing high heals! I doubt anyone on this forum works out in high heals!!
