Smash-Related Injuries

[JustCause]

My current record is four broken ribs and a bruise on my leg. I was hit by a car last week on the way to the computer lab, to see if I could get in a little Kaillera time. I've also jammed my trigger fingers because of my absolutely horrid controller and its trigger placement.

So, what are your worst Smash-related injuries?

Probably literally tripping in a brawl tournament...

Tripping needs to be banned in real life

Shameless plug for Life+

Verbal abuse from my brother about how much better Brawl is, because I constantly destroyed him on n64 console.

arm and hand pains after playing melee for 15 hours straight overnight, then doing it again the next weekend

 

[hamburglar]

it wasn't smash related but i played with a broken left hand for a few months and after it healed my z cancel consistency and other ATs improved a ton. it's like practicing running with a parachute.

mario party 1 ****** my hand, then doing dk dittos the next day.

 

[ciaza]

Blsieters on the palm of my hand for trying out a new way of SLide DI, by rotating the joystick with my palm. Results were good but not worth the price of pain.

Mario Party 1 is a hand raper.

Mario Party 1 ***** the center of my palm really really bad

 

[DaisyBoo92]

I wish Mario Party 1 would **** me.

 

[Nixernator]

Blister on my thumb, which then opened up and bled everywhere Lol.
Also many dead arms from non-smash friends I play at 64 =P

Yes, exactly. The frigging boo one where you cycle is the worst! ERGHH SO MANY BAND-AIDS.

the team mini game where you paddle the boat and try to push the other side against the shore was really intense if the balance was 3-1 and you were the 1. that one always broke the skin....

There is so much sig material in this thread x]

Mine wasn't really an injury. Playing smash actually seems to ease the pain from injury for me. I screwed up my arm one time from Tennis, and every time I played games the pain seemed to magically disappear :]

I know what you mean. For my ribs, a good 0-to-death is better than any Tylenol.

Actually I just remembered I had a ~6 hour console session about a year and a half ago after I hadn't played any SSB (or any other N64 game, for that matter) for a couple of months. My thumb was like twice it's normal size afterward, and didn't feel or look right for a couple of days.

Drunk friend threw a controller at my face.

ROFL, I was also hit by a car, while playing Smash in the Daedalus emulator on my PSP. I was so excited about getting 25 fps that I didn't notice the truck. The guy was on his cell phone. My legs and my left arm were in casts for 7 weeks. Luckily my arm wasn't completely broken, so I was able to play through Fallouts 1-3. That was about a year ago, and my legs have never really been the same. On the bright side, I made some good contributions to the PSP hacking community while I was on bedrest. Vicodin is some pretty amazing coding inspiration.

 

[Neo Exdeath]

I've lost some sleep over Smash (Curse you, Mewtwo, and your evil unlock method!), but that's pretty much it. Also, I agree with Z.e.n, this thread has loads of sig potential.

 

[SuPeRbOoM]

when I tried to unlock mewtwo I just left my gc on overnight and my gamecube started rolling black smoke from it and I was like "wtf?!"

 

[Darth Rancorous]

umm, lets see. ive played smash so much that my thumbs are completely callised over and dont hurt after playin smash anymore. my friends are such cowards, they always complain about their thumbs hahaha

When were you gone for 7 weeks? stop making stuff up, Luke...

 

[Bloodyknuxs]

me and some friends were play ssbm ffa, which i suck at. one of my friends was talking so much **** i got so pissed off i bent over, slammed my controller into the ground so hard it bounced up and hit me in the eye.

that year i had a black eye for my 8th grade photo.....but that was a long time ago. im a senior now....but i still have that memory of pwning myself after getting pwned....

 

[Wal-Marth]

I usually cut myself after losing a game on Kaillera.

BTW, the pfrase "hand raper" is very arousing.

God **** this thread is too funny.

This might be considered property damage: My friend has thrown so many controllers after losing. Usually he hits the ground and they break, but once he lost to Ness and chucked it at his big screen tv.....yea

btw Wal-Marth, your posts are so ****in dumb yet so funny. I'm like "wtf?," then I laugh for 10 min. Comical genius I swear, don't ever stop.

 

[Paixy]

Same as above, more property damage. I use to throw my controller a lot. smashed three tv's (one being 42 inches) in a week...

 

[Paixy]

Mario Party 1 is a hand raper.

[Daedatheus]

I partied from 11pm until 7am, had 3 hours of sleep, then hosted a Melee tournament today.

Smash has temporarily turned me into a (hung over) zombie

 

[Vudujin]

Friggin Shy Guy Challenge made my palms bleed

 

[H0lyQuebec]

pedal power + paddle battle + cast away then tug-o-war with hard computers, then go crank dat shy guy = new controller. its ridiculous lol.

my worst smash injury? probably very dry skin on my thumb, since i play with DPAD. reminds me of playing street fighter 2/3 with DPAD, my thumb hurts alot after 15 minutes.

 

[t3h Icy]

My sister has a seizure playing Brawl before. She got 2-stocked.

 

[Kazz@]

Least MP8's nicer.

If shake it were any longer, I'd have a broken wrist.

Lol.

olol.

ololol.

um.... do I have 10 characters yet?

 

[Fireblaster]

I got a seizure while playing melee at a Toys R US on those godawful demo stations with the TV and controller so close together they force you to stand 2 inches from the TV. It was my first time playing a game at 60 fps with so much rapid and fast 3d movement, so that helped as well.

Because of this, at the hospital they had found a growth in my head that I was able to take medicine to get rid of before it did any damage at all. Therefore, smash saved my life. >_>
