Come the morning of December 9th we reckon there will be more than a few gamers waking up with aching limbs, missing teeth and busted domestic appliances, all no-thanks to a little too much happy-handed enthusiasm for their spanking new Wiis the night before.

But if you’re thinking that these sorts of expensive accidents and personal injuries only happen to other chumps, think again, and take a look at hilarious US blog site www.wiihaveaproblem.com to see the sort of mishaps the Wii has in store for the unwary.

The self-confessed fanboys at Wiihaveaproblem have been keeping a log of reported minor catastrophes and other Wii-related misfortunes. To date they’ve noted a couple of broken laptops, seven boshed tellies and 13 snapped wrist straps (which are supposed to safeguard against such things happening) and an assortment of discombobulated windows, stereos, ceiling fans etc... but we suspect that this is just the tip of the iceberg. There’s picture and/or video evidence wherever possible too.

The latest video update is the most amusing, though. There are no injuries or broken plasmas involved. Let’s just say that it demonstrates the unbridled, nay, unhinged joy that Wii can bring to some people, and in a way that makes the notorious restaurant scene from ‘When Harry Met Sally’ look like The Last of the Summer Wine! We’re not kidding...
