Just when you thought that having a nice pleasant round with the Wii is
as safe as the console's wholesome packaging, Wiihaveaproblem.com reports that
there's a growing number of injuries sustained while playing with
Nintendo's motion controller. Here's a few things you should definitely
keep in mind the next time you pick up a Nunchuk.While the injuries do not come directly with playing with the Wii, cases of Wiinjury have come as a result of the lack of precaution that some players observed while playing.
This popular Wiinjury photo is of a woman who was supposed to be getting help playing Zelda from her boyfriend, but she unfortunately came in range of his swing, leaving her with a black eye that you usually see in boxing matches.
Other Wiinjuries include:
- Hand/Elbow bruises and lacerations: usually sustained when hands swing into nearby objects, such as glass figures, lamps, fans, and ceiling lights.
- Wii-itis: coined by family physician Dr. Julio Bonis to refer to the sore shoulder that he sustained after playing too much tennis in Wii Sports.
- Dislocated knee: One unfortunate player made the mistake of playing Wii Sports tennis in high heels and later found herself in lots of pain.
