Michael Torchia, a man with his own radio show called Shape Up America, claims the Wii is, contrary to popular belief, contributing to the obesity epidemic and causing injuries to innocent consumers due to a lack of proper warnings for their innovative controls. He also claims that Nintendo, through television advertisements, misleads potential consumers into thinking that the Wii is a fun, family-oriented experience that can replace a real workout regime (because, you know, they said that) and as a result, more and more young children are staying indoors and playing video games, rather than running around, climbing trees and eating mud pies, a low-caloric food high in protein and worms. Torchia has retained a “prominent lawfirm” to prepare a class-action lawsuit against Nintendo in a desperate move for some cash to set things right in the world.
