According to an article in the Daily Telegraph today, the average Wii Fit user in the UK has caused £6.55 worth of damage to things around their homes while using their Wii, totalling about £20 million.
Simple reason for this: they are fucking morons.
These are the same people who threw their Wiimotes through their TVs when the console first came out. Apparently now they have managed to knock over vases and somehow injure pets in the process. I'm not gonna ask. You'll notice I'm also not mentioning that it seems to be all women in the survey. I'm saying NOTHING.
Now correct me if I'm wrong here, but if you plan on waving your arms (and possibly your legs since Yoga is an option), would basic common sense not tell you to make sure that you have moved things out of the way? Not only because of the damage to objects, but because if it had been a granite mantlepiece instead of a vase, smacking your foot off it would hurt like a son of a bitch.
Is there some kind of test these Wii owners take when they buy the console, that basically works out how stupid you are and only allows you to buy one if you completely fail as a rational human being? Don't they know they have arms and legs? Don't they realise how far they can reach? How do they get stuff out of cupboards or off shelves?
So we could end up with a nation of really fit, flexible people, but they'll all have shredded feet from walking on broken ornaments and be brain dead from bouncing their skulls off counter tops. Awesome.
