Arcade Game Goes On A Rampage, Breaks The Arms Of Three People

If you're ever out at an arcade and see one of those arm-wrestling games that lets you pit your skills against those of a machine, you might just think twice. Especially if it bears the name Arm Spirit.

Apparently, the game has been pulled from Japanese arcades because it has gone and broken the arms of three different challengers. Details on just how the game managed to snap the limbs of players are sparse.

According to a spokeswoman for the game's distributer, they have recalled the games as a "precaution" and that they "think that maybe some players get overexcited and twist their arms in an unnatural way."
