Wii causes bruises, assault charges on Christmas

081227blomyoung

I guess some people just don’t want a Wii. Heath Blom, 26, of New Hampshire, was allegedly expecting a $1,000 RC airplane from his grandparents for Christmas. When he didn’t get it, he became upset and “acted like a 10-year-old.” When his girlfriend, Randi Young, 24, followed up by giving him a Wii for Christmas, he blew his lid, said he hated it, and – long story short – the two have been charged for assault.

You can read through all the cloudy details at the Herald article below. There was punching, dragging of people down flights of stairs, knotted hair, what have you. Not exactly the Christmas that Nintendo was expecting people to have on account of them, you think?
