A Wii Little Accident! - #1

I just had my first Wii accident this weekend. I don't have pictures to prove it, as it was very little, but yep, I had my first Wii accident. Of course, a lot led up to it -- it didn't just happen out of nowhere.

Recently, I've been working many 50+ hour work weeks and because of such, I don't get to do many things that I may like to do, like play tennis or bowl. And what would a good substitute br? Why, playing Wii Sports of course!

All weekend long, starting Friday night, I've been playing Tennis. I was at about 340 points, and you need to get to 1000 to be PRO. After 3 hours of playing by myself I got to 1000, it was easy. However, I wanted to play around with setting up myself up as a team mate on both teams, and then 3 of Mii and 1 computer component. It got pretty confusing at times, but it was really fun.

So finally, after hours and hours of playing Wii Tennis, my shoulders will be pretty tense. I played really hard to the point where it was kind of hard to grip the Wiimote firmly. So, as I decided to take a break, and play some Wii bowling. As I pull back and swing my arm forward I let go of the B button and the rest of my fingers slip and the Wiimote goes flying to the ceiling and then into the wall and under the futon. As I retrieved the Wiimote, I noticed that it doesn't have a scratch however, it did take a small chunk out of the wall.

Now I understand how Wiimotes go into TVs...

Everyone, please! Use a strap!

    Who knew Wii Sports could be soo dangerous! I'll have to keep this in mind once I get my own Wii.

    Get some rest and thanks for the blog. :)

    hahaha....

    those things are dangerous! You should stick to more safer sports... like scuba diving with sharks or mountain climbing without a rope!

    We had a collision the first day we had a Wii when we were playing tennis on it. It's dangerous!

    To Zinor: It is quite a dangerous console. I've heard of people killing other people for PS3s and Xbox360s, but I've never heard of someone actually injuring the other person with any of the controllers.

    To Nimloth: I've tried to scuba dive with the sharks, and it's kind of meh. Not nearly as exciting as playing DDR (Drunk Drunk Revolution)! ;)

    To Malice: I'm quite revived now, after two days of resting and I'm ready to take on the world! Or at least a couple AI players. :)
