I've just been banned from the Wii for a month by my doctor because I pulled the connective muscles between my ribs. She said it'll take around 3 months to heal properly, but she'd allow me to play the Wii again after a month.

We'll see how long that lasts.

So, have you got any good injury stories to share?

You... injured yourself playing a video game? Epic fail. I take care of myself, so even if I'm playing thirteen straight hours of PC games, I've never even had the beginnings of carpal tunnel syndrome or any repetitive strain disorder. My overall health, though, that may be a different story!

The closest I came to injuring myself in a game is not being able to bend at the knees after my first game of paintball.

Normally I would agree with you. But the way the wiimote is designed and portreyed on various video games, it's bound to happen ALOT more then if you are on a keyboard or something.
By the way, this happened to me the other day when I was playing tennis on Wii sports. Not that big deal, but I smacked my other hand, that made me hurt and laugh at the same time.

My injury, I was playing Wii Sports and I was playing bowling and I was bowling by spinning around and throwing the ball, I did this and I got dizzy after a while and then the next time I did it and I fell over, hit the sharp edge of the table, even though it was far away and I cut my thumb badly.
