Most of the time it's my neck from staying in the same position for so long. Occasionally it would be my eyes for staying awake for a long time.
Sore body parts from gaming?

When I first played some of the N64 games, sometimes I had to rotate the control stick like crazy. After alot of failing, the skin on my thumb got raw and I couldn't play very well after that until it healed. Thanks alot, Mario Party!Any games in particular that gave you soreness?Like playing too much Guitar Hero or swinging the Wii controller too much

When I used to play the Gameboy SP, my thumbs used to get sore because of the directional pad being almost flush with the SP. My thumbs were always red after playing it for a long time.

Pc games give me the most acks. Usally if take breaks and don't end being on for the whole day you can avoid it. And my neck as well.

My head occasionally hurts from banging it against the wall due to frustration, but at other times it's the neck. Sometimes my legs go numb from sitting, that's when I decide to stretch with the help of WiiFit.

I have calloused thumbs from my many years of console gaming, and carpol tunnel (did I spell that right?) from the lengthy periods of PC gaming... FUN!

My thumbs actually got pretty sore playing a boxing game once. I actually wore off the rubber coating on the joysticks on the xbox controller. I got up and noticed all this black stuff that looked like eraser shavings.

When I was younger, I'd get sore thumbs. Thanks to the Wii, I can get sore throughout my whole body. :DThanks, Wii!

My eyes usually get tired after extensive video game play. However, sometimes I feel like I have carpal tunnel syndrome - particularly when and if I play games on the computer.Also, my back hurts sometimes, too, when I play video games. Therefore, I follow the recommendations of taking 10- to 15-minute breaks in between playing games.

When I get out my old sega my thumbs kill me after a while because that controller isn't made for extended gaming... Sitting down to long hurts your butt and if your to tall or short and looking up or down at the screen can hurt after a while
