Arm Wrestling Machine Recalled for Breaking Arms

Posted by samzenpus on from the step-right-up-and-lose-a-limb dept.

Lucas123 writes "After three players broke their arms while wrestling with a Japanese arcade machine, the manufacturer promised to remove all 150 of the mechanized appendages. Said game maker Atlus' spokeswoman: "The machine isn't that strong, much less so than a muscular man. Even women should be able to beat it.""
