Nintendo Wii Injuries

An American accidentally gave his girlfriend a black eye when she made the mistake of walking behind him while he was taking on a rather nasty Poe in Zelda Twilight Princess. That Master Sword is so much more dangerous than it looks!

A New Yorker was happily playing baseball on Wii Sports when, on swinging at the second pitch, her knee popped out of place. She spent the night at hospital and was completely immobilised for weeks. Needless to say she lost the game

Whilst playing a rather vigorous game of tennis on Wii Sports an overly competitive Danish man cut his hand to shreds when he went for a high match-finishing return and put his hand straight though the glass chandelier hanging above him. Talk about a smash!

Bowling, hardly a strenuous sport, however bowling on a Wii is clearly a very different game. It proved too much for an American woman who managed to hurt her bum and pull a hamstring whilst attempting trying to get herself just one more strike on the popular Wii Sports game. Remember kids, whatever the sport, always warm up.

A young boy from Liverpool knocked his sister's front teeth out when teeing off in a game Wii Sports in golf. If he had swung a bit higher he could have got a bogey (sorry).

Every time you put a game into the Wii it explicitly tells you to make sure you are wearing the Wii remotes wrist strap. A Bristol man neglected this advice at considerable cost when he had to replace his brand new 52" plasma TV because it had his Wii remote imbedded in it! He won’t be doing that again.

An Australian man living in East London has claimed to be suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder brought on by the genuinely terrifying Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles. Our advice is if you want to play this game, have a few friends over and always have a shotgun, pistol and chainsaw to hand, you never know when they will come for you!

A Virgin Media staff member was recently diagnosed with repetitive strain injury. He blames it on his energetic wrist shaking action required to get your carrot juice up to the right pressure in Wii’s Rayman Raving Rabbids 2. Yeah, whatever.

So just be careful out there on your Wii's!!
