Video Games Ouchies

whats the worst ouchie you ever got from playing video games?

mine i got a few days ago while playing Tekken 2. i had one blister on each of my thumbs. one of them was huge. they hurt for days :dizzy2:

 

well...The N64 is where i got my first gaming injury on. I was playin Killer Instinct Gold...well..i using the controle stick and pressing on it real hard..well..Some of my skin started getting teared off ...ouch more disgusting then hurtful

 

The Nintendo 64 did have a really annoying stick. Too much Goldeneye brings too much pain on the fingers.

And, never forget my finger pain when me and my mates had a 7 hours fighting game spree on the PS2.

Tekken Tag, Tekken 4, Soul Calibur II and Dead or Alive II.

 

Don't really have much complaints with control pads. However, some games are not suited to certain control pads... like the X box controller, I tried playing Streetfighter Anniversary: 3rd Strike on this and the controller was too bulky for it. Also the black and white buttons strayed too far down for it to be pressed. My hands just ached after a bit. Prefer the PS controllers as it is effectively hollow at the back.

I dunno about video games, but my index finger is (I think) on the verge of getting a blister from using my mouse wheel too much.

Plus my forearms have hurt from typing too much (Carpal Tunnel? I hope not), and my legs have felt weak from spending too much time in my computer chair without a break.

Oh yeah, I was playing Street Fighter 2 for the Genesis, and I kept tearing the skin off my thumb trying to use Hadouken. It got so I had to hold the controller funny and use my finger instead because my thumb hurt too much. I think they should have made the D-pad a bit softer on Genesis controllers.

 

In my rage and conquest to defeat a game, I do not feel pain.
It hurts afterwards. Simple things like sore thumbs, or probably the entire hand. Ussually I kick something in my anger because I was probably thinking the game was cheap at that time, or the physics or something was making me mess up....so my feet and/or legs hurt otherwise. Never had anything TOO particular anyways.

 

The worst ouchie I ever got was during a game of Smash Brothers. Someone started swinging their controller around and whapped me right on the head.

 

Playing Mortal Kombat for insane amount of hours on the PS1 gave me really big ouchies, but at least I beat Shao Kahn!

i know you don't really care about the ouchies when your winning. i was on a winning streak with that indian girl from Tekken 2.

*kisses everybody's ouchies then gives everybody a colorful bandaid and a sucker*

i always had a blister after playing a racing game on the Nintendo 64 :dizzy2:

 

SHAO KAHN.


Yeah the worst I've had are either DDR related, or I remember playing on my SNES for like 8 hours straight one day and I got some sort of blister or other on my thumb.

Not fun.

 

Well, I've been playing samurai western recently, and dodging like mad. I'm sure theres gonna be something there by tommorow growing on my fingers. >_>

 

You know those things that you get on your legs when you don't move 'em for a long time? Like those blistery thingies? Yeah, that's what my diagnosis was.

 

bad memories with ddr =/
and my thumb suffered serious damage after i played RE4 for 17 hours straight.

 

Oh yeah Chejo, me too. One time I fell playin' DDR and almost broke my ankle. It hurt for a looooooooooong time. Also, playing Mortal Combat hurts my thumbs.

 

pod racing on the n64 for 12 hours
gaint blisters on my left thumb/palm, yes i started to use my palm on the stick <.<
other than that
I spraind my right pinky/ring finger and continued o play PS4 on my genesis so I made it worse

 

How the heck do people's skin tear off their fingers while playing video games? I'm sorry i can't see that happening, 1) because it never happened to me and 2) upon looking at a controller i don't see what your skin could get caught on, or how it could.

Heh, I'm good with video games. I know when to stop playing before my fingers start to hurt, and i usually just play RPGs like Final Fantasy where you only need to press the button and move the stick a bit. Oh and I have callouses on my fingers. Not big ones like the ones guitar players have, but my fingers are tough.

The only big ouchie I can think of while playing a game was when i played DDR for the first (and hopefully last -_-) time. My feet were so sore afterwards because i was dumb and saw everyone else stomping so i figured I should stomp too. -_-

 

i did get an ouchie... on the heart after trowing my only ps1 gamepad over the window after an anoying game pissed me off.
after that i ran down stairs and found a pitful gamepad shattered through the street only got another after a month...

 

The worst one i got was playing Mario Party and you had to rotate the stick really fast so the shy guy wouldn't poke you... it hurts for days if you do it to much.
