Amsterdam, New York, 12/27/2007 -- It was one of the hottest gifts of the holiday season and it's still sold out at many stores.
But for those who were lucky enough to survive Wii-mania many are now finding themselves dealing with wii-pain-ia.
So many players have come down with Wii-related injuries the New England Journal of Medicine has a name for it, wiitis.

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space
Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

"Wii-related injuries"

" Isakson spent hours in front of his Wii on Christmas morning playing everything from bowling to baseball.
When he woke up on Wednesday he says he was still feeling the burn.

yeah well jack@ss, read the instruction booklet it says take a break after each hour.
I got bursitis in the elbow from Wii Bowling. My elbow blew up like the size of a baseball. I had to go to the doctor and get some anti inflamatory for it to go down. It hurt like hell. That Wii can be dangerous.
its a real serious injury that Wii owners should be aware of...
...PLEASE NINTENDO....THINK OF THE CHILDREN
Are all these injuries related to over-exaggerated moves?
