Sometimes I got a pain in the back whenever playing in my DS while sitting for at least an hour.

I have been playing both Mario and sonic at the Olympic games and New International track & Field, and after a while my shoulder gets almost numb. And when swimming 100m I almost get a cramp, just almost XD

I find that my hands and fingers either hurt or stiffen up if I play for too long

Hey OP, I know we read instruction booklets and heed warnings. Heck, most new games come with these warning burned into the game. I received cramp after cramp using my friends' Lite, but my trusty brick never hurt me, with the exception of using the stylus for too long.

Well, one time I was playing Jewel Master or something similar to it and all of a sudden my right arm started to hurt [like how I use my laptop mouse to long] really badly and my eyes started to hurt a little bit,but not as much as my arm,maybe because I was playing to long I think I was playing an hour or so. So i stopped playing and a while later I started to play again!! LOL!! :D :D

I usually only hurt my hand if I hold the stylus too long. I guess I've trained my eyes to stare at a TV screen for hours at a time. :(

I hate the thumb problems that they give you. It's worth it sometimes, but i wish they didn't have those pains.

Resting for 1 hour after playing 3 hours is good enough for your eyes and your ds. Also dont forget to stay 30cm away from the screen...

I usually don't get pain from playing most games, but I can't play guitar hero on tour for more than like two songs without my whole arm hurting, from my fingertips to my shoulder. It's terrible pain. But I still play it cause it's so fun lol

my right hand hurts whenever i play for too long. i recently bought rhythm heaven and it requires alot of stylus work so my fingers get really sore afterwards. my eyes also start to ache after a while but usually when i play Millionheir which needs eyes ALOT!

my eyes hurt if i play games too long, if it keeps happening i would get ur eyes checked. Also if i find that if you are in a hot area you get head aches faster, that might have something to do with ur eyes hurting.

When I'm playing Ouendan/EBA, I get angry from getting A Ranks. Though I have S Ranks for all of the levels by now.
