The Wii is fun until somebody gets hurt, then it makes for funny news...

A family in the US town of Loveland became concerned when their dog started vomiting blood - something that the first aid chief on our floor will tell you "ain't quite right."

So naturally the dog was whisked off to the vet, where X-Rays revealed what appeared to be an old TV remote.

Vet-induced vomiting revealed that there were pieces of TV remote inside the dog's stomach, but there was something else in the pooch's tummy as well...

"The Vet started massaging the dogs belly and it just came flying out of the dog," said Marie Becknell. "I knew what it was right away by the color and shape of it. It was my son's video game remote." Yep, the dog had swallowed the boy's Wii Remote.

We're sure you'll agree that this is one talented dog, but instead of having him run around the living room, hilariously flailing the bat in Wii Sports, the family had the Remote removed.

"The dog spent the night at the Vet and boy's punishment for leaving the controller out was two weeks allowance to replace the Wii remote," said Mrs. Becknell. Don't him leave the SixAxis lying about...

To Harvest or not to Harvest, that is the question;
Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The pipes and bullets of outrageous Splicers,
Or to take arms against a horde of Big Daddies,
And by opposing, end them. To die, to sleep...

As if we needed more proof that the Japanese government is using the Wii as a tool of mass destruction upon the U.S.

$20 allowance?! That family's loaded!

And no docked allowance for the cost of the vet visit? Does he get to keep playing the Wii?

I'm more concerned about his Sixxaxis!!! How do they get the money to get both a Wii and PS3!? Poor dog though. I wonder what it would look like if someone videotaped the dog walking across the TV screen while the Wii was on.
