Is The Wii (Insert Ominous Music) Dangerous?

While studies are still in progress to judge its addictive powers, there is now proof that part of the Wii is in fact dangerous… to your television, or other expensive items within throwing distance of this Japanese Death Toy. That’s right folks, the Wiimote is dangerous, it has cracked screens, caused blunt force trauma to several innocent bystanders, and even (gasp) broken irreplaceable Star Wars collectibles!
Nintendo, the evil terrorists who produced the weapon of mass destruction called the Wii, sent this warning to those who have purchased the gaming system, in hopes that it would reach them before it’s too late.
They stated that they would not be held liable for the damage or loss of the above mentioned Star Wars collectibles and that users should follow some simple rules:
- Wear the fashionable wrist safety harness (included)
- Don’t let go of the remote during gameplay
- Stay at least 3 feet away from the television (mother’s reminder) or you’ll go blind
If you choose to disregard these simple rules then you are playing at your own risk! May God have mercy on your souls (and on your Star Wars collectibles).

you gotta wonder if the ESRB( the electronics software ratings board) is going to say anything specifcally about the Wii.
Not for the hilarious reasons listed in this article btw, but because now you’re actually swinging the sword to kill the dude in front of you, now you’re actually pulling back the arrow and firing it in someones face!
Don’t get me wrong I’m still a staunch nintendo nerd, but lamer things have been said in the past…..
I love that the Wii is actually getting people off of their butts and up doing something. Granted, it’s no cardiovascular-aerobic workout, but it is something.
