WFAA website headline about Wii --- "New video games lead to serious injuri

Turn on ABC right now...AvIdGaMeR444

Too late...they had like a one minute report on Wii injuries.  ABC even showed a baby with a swollen eye that was hit with a wiimote to emphasize their point.  This is like the 5th report ABC has done on this...they are really out to slam the Wii it seems.  The said that Wiihaveaproblem.com is inundated with reports on Wii injuries even after Nintendo made stronger wrist straps...

Fission mailed TC.......Fission mailedShinobishyguy

Look, I said Nintendo's response to WFAA sounded like "blatant disregard"...I'm just saying what they said almost made it seem like they were placing blame on gamers..."Gamers need to be more aware of their surroundings" is what Nintendo said on WFAA.  So, I'm basing the blatant disregard thing on that statement....

Ok, now that that is outta the way....I said "turn on ABC now" because just as I was typing other things, ABC was beginning its live report on Wii injuries.  It only lasted like a minute. 

Everything I said was true....so I don't get the "fission mailed" reply from you

I guess Honda/Ford/etc should be to blame for their selling of cars and people not being able to drive thus leading them to hit things? :|-RPGamer-

This is exactly why this thread makes no sense.

The majority of players aren't getting themselves injured or breaking things and Nintendo shouldn't be held responsible for the small number of people who are.

Nintendo can't protect people from their own stupidity, plain and simple.

Like I said are you going to blame your car manufacturer if you fail to control your vehicle and hit something? No (unless it's an issue with the product itself, in which Nintendo has already made strides to fix said problem).

God i hate how people say it killed my TV it broke my friends ribs no you broke your TV and you broke you friends ribs because you were to close like Baseball if your to close to a bat be perpared to get smacked.  or you wern't whereing your wrist starp. IStarFoxCOM

Kind of like someone blaming the gun for killing someone rather than the person who pulled the trigger.

Excellent point, and one I agree with 100%.

Basically the same old news about people getting carried away and swinging the Wiimote too hard leading to broken TVs and injuries.  WFAA News interviewed Nintendo....

Nintendo responded...."gamers need to be aware of their surroundings"

Sounds like blatant disregard from Nintendo once again...
