They're hardly dangerous? Dumb American kids are to blame that get too excited when playing Sports I think. The strap is strong, very strong actually.
Never mind about the tv smashing thing lol but like the hurting ur joints or sumin, she hears all these things on her radio ¬.¬

Hmmm, some advice. Smash her Radio :P
If you are being too violent with it, it would hurt your joints possibly, but it depends on the person. Just keep telling her over and over again, that you're safe, it's safe and everything around you will be safe. As a normal parent, she should give in :P

Ignore this imbesile.
He doesn't own one and has some sort of hate campaign against them. The Wii is hardly over-rated. What IS more over-rated than the Wii is the XBOX 360 and PS3 if anything "/

That's the post of a fanboy.
Xbox360 never had such a build-up as the Wii did, infact, it hardly got any.
PS3's hype has been muffled out by the release of the Wii.
Over-rated? No.
The Xbox360 claimed to be a media station aswell as a next-gen console; and what is it?
The PS3 claims to be the same, and with the added factor of the ability to play blu-ray discs; and what is it?
I've played a Wii; i've owned a Wii; I dislike it, very, VERY much.
It brings shame to the name of 'gaming' as it used to be.
This is just a cheap exercise machine, not gaming.

Ontopic: I also dont get how its dangerous unless your dumb but oh well.
Flame your thread?
How is expressing my opinion 'flaming' a thread?
If you don't want my opinion on a question, and a poll that you posted; you shouldn't posted it.
it'ss only dangerous if you're dangerous with it.
Yea I agree.
Also, it wouldn't be released if it was dangerous?

Oh do stop whining, please. You're annoying. You call it an exercise machine, so I get the impression you're a little fat kid "/ It is hardly exercise anyway "/ It isn't dangerous, unless you're dangerous and too stupid to put the strap on your wrist and secure it.
You say the Wii is over-rated, yet you have no proof? Just an opinion on it.
If you don't like the Wii, fair enough. No need to tell us why by ranting in such a immature way in which you don't get your point anyway.
Minime4000, you may aswell close the thread. He has soiled it "/
I know it's an opinion; that's what i've been trying to tell you all along.
But oh no, you won't have it.
Everyone's entitled to their opinion, so stop turning what is my opinion, into an insult/******** match.
And no, i'm not fat, AGAIN - that was my opinion.

Well the only question i asked is if its dangerous and said if you don't like the wii then don't post and you obviously don't like the wii so don't post or just post whether you think its dangerous or not.
So because I don't like it; means I cannot post?
No because some people like the wii yet think it is dangerous, i did not ask if you like it or not just whether you think it is dangerous so there was no need to go all crazy and flame

sure does.
and i think teh person who started this thread doesnt want arguments
and i also think you go around starting them for no reason.
Forums are means of expressing views and opinions.
I said that they were dangerous, and I also added an extra comment that I think they're over-rate; not once did I say I did not like them UNTIL someone started a debate with me, which im happy to take on.
It's not an argument, its a debate.
1. Stuff Only Gets Broken if Your Not Being Sensible
2. And Just Play In MODeration If You Dont Want To Get Sore, And Acctually Its Only WiiSports That Anything Bad Can Really Happen

Because it has nothing to do with you? If you bothered reading his post, he wanted to know if it was dangerous and was asking people who own the Wii on their opinions and some facts that he can show his mother.
Not some angry kid who hates the Wii and posts blindly. You know it isn't dangerous, but want to cause an argument over it. It isn't a debate, because the argument put forward is an obvious no, it isn't dangerous.

Isn't that a fact though? All consoles use their novelty after a while. If it was over-rated, you would of hated it from the start, but you clearly don't nor did "/

I can understand that it could be dangerous by giving you pains in your arm but people who fling their remotes at the tv do it because of frustration really.

So you never owned Twilight Princess when you had your Wii?
About the harming joints, you don't actually have to put all your energy into it, but if you want to perhaps you should warm up or something before hand :p.

Do tell why the Wii is old technology? The PS3 and XBOX are old technology, if we want to play that game, nothing has changed? The XBOX 360 is just a re-built XBOX that, at the early stages, had the laser burn out after a matter of weeks...
The PS3 is using new technology that has made it one of the worst technological failures in 2006, because it uses a new technology that not many companies want to invest in. They also lose alot of money per console, which, although games make a lot of money, is still not good considering the games will be/probably are expensive.
The Wii is cheap and fun, all you need in a console. Not a glorified console that uses bluetooth on controlers. That just a new way to go wireless "/ Nothing changed their, the Wii-Mote is different. It uses motion to play.
Its nothing new like the PS3. xbox own all the rest. i just hate it i'be played most games and they're just boring.
How does the XBOX own all the rest? There's nothing different about it than the last XBOX?
Considering the Wii has just been released, you should be capable of realising that games won't be coming out one after the other. When the cool new games like SSBM and Mario come out, they'll be great. Even though Twilight Princess is excellent and Wii Sports is a great game to play with friends.

Rofl, the Wii is old technology? Lmao, did you eat your brain for breakfast? It's one of a kind, it's the newest thing out. It is interactive! So how you play the Wii is old technology, eh? No. You are stupid. How you play the Xbox and Playstation is old technology. You sit there smashing a pad to bits with your thumbs... but when you play the Wii it is a totally different experience. Sorry, but you don't even know what the words 'old' and 'technology' mean.
It's nothing new? Once again, where did you leave your brain today? The Wii has loads of new features. Wii Channels, Virtual Console, Wii-Mote, Nunchuk, Mii's, the list goes on... The Wii is so different from the Xbox it is almost stupid to compare them. The Xbox IS nothing new, not the Wii. I'm not even going to go into the Playstation 3...

the consoles themselves aren't - but anything can be dangerous if you make it.
for instance if you smashed the wii console over someone's head it would probably hurt them.
Ok ready for some words of wisdom?
If you crash a fast car whilst speeding you dont blame it for being too fast as its your own fault and its ok while your sensible with it. The same goes with the wii.

The 'dangerous' part of the Wii made me want one more.
I've got one and had it for around a month now, and no-one whos played on it has had an eye smashed in.

Sorry, I forgot to mention. This was when the XBOX 360 had just been released. After about 2 hours of gameplay, the laser started melting the CDs and over heated everything... My bad :P
The PS3 still needs alot of testing. Are they actually capable of playing PS and PS2 games? I thought they had to be blue-ray capable?
The strap is incredibly strong, you must be very vicious with it to break it "/
