Answer #1

it sounds like you have ‘tennis elbow’ and you are probably developing tendonitus.

repetitive motion with a WII is no different than in a factory or a sports event- so the same rules apply- mikeh may have hit it with the statement ‘STRETCH BEFORE AND AFTER”

and you will have to moderate yourself- you wouldn’t play tennis or football or softball for 10 straight hours would you? I foresee a lot of bad arm and wrist injuries as a result of the Wii.

Answer #2

well mine hurts if I strain my muscles or move my arm in the wrong way just be careful how you move it next time and give it a rest so that means no playing on the wii until its better

Answer #3

Let’s talk about what hurts from the Wii. My soul hurts from the Wii. My soul hurts because after months and months of clever marketing, rampant speculation, and overblown promises about the future of gaming technology, what we were finally given was a system with lousy motion recognition and not one notable or memorable game on the entire system. We were left with a glut of unplayable and buggy games and a gimmick that would have been cool if it had worked as promised or was at least implemented correctly.

smash smash!

Never again, Nintendo! I stood by you through it all, even the Virtual Boy disaster, but never again!! You hear me?!!

Sigh.

Anyway. Stretching before and after should help.
