Video gaming, especially with the Nintendo Wii, is designed to be “fun for the whole family,” so most people don’t think about safety issues. Yet Nintendo has issued several safety warnings regarding their products, specifically the Wii, its games, and accessories. Heeding these warnings can help ensure that all gamers will have an enjoyable, injury-free gaming experience.

Research has shown that a small percentage of the population can experience seizures when playing various types of video games. This can be attributed to a particular flashing pattern in the screen graphics that can be unique for each individual. This can occur very suddenly for people of any age, regardless of whether or not they have previously experienced any type of seizure activity.

Headaches and vision problems are another health concern that you should be aware of when playing video games. Severe headaches, twitching eyes, and blurred vision should be taken very seriously. Also, people who may be prone to motion sickness may sometimes experience similar symptoms when playing certain games on the Nintendo Wii because of the rapid movements on the screen.

Repetitive strain injuries are another risk for gamers who spend long hours playing on their Wii. While your favorite games can become quite addictive, you need to be aware that motions that are repeated again and again can result in pain in the fingers, hands, arms, and wrists. These problems can be avoided if you limit your playing time each day, especially if you experience early warning signs such as numbness or burning sensations in frequently used areas of your hands, fingers, or arms.

Also, since many of the games for the Nintendo Wii are interactive, you should be careful to survey your area playing area before beginning each session. Make sure that you have adequate room to complete the required movements, and that you won’t injure yourself by bumping into objects or other people.

Stretching before and after participating in these games will also help reduce the risk of injuries. Anyone with a history of heart problems needs to check with their doctor before engaging in these types of games.

The vast majority of people will find Nintendo Wii games to be great fun and not at all risky. However, as the girl in this photo discovered, accidents can definitely happen. Please be safe when using your Nintendo Wii, and seek medical attention promptly if necessary. Have fun!
