Now that's adding insult to injury. - SmackMyMac, on 10/10/2007, -3/+21Hey, sometimes losing hurts.
- otep, on 10/10/2007, -3/+15"Lose a game of chess to a computer, and you could bruise your ego. "
Unless you're playing against a Wookie, then your arms could be pulled out of socket. Or so I've heard.
... - whatever1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+12The good news is that you only break your arm if you suck.
- lex0429, on 10/10/2007, -5/+16inside the machine is actually chuck norris
- Sabin, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10Having arm wrestled many Japanese people before, including one who was considered strong and worked in construction (drunken pub night with my language exchange group if you are wondering) I can safely say that most Japanese people do not know how to arm wrestle.
- xadhominemx, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8If Chuck Norris was in the game, there would be no difference between playing the game, and losing the game.
- yomamaisfat, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9Finally a game has been made out the movie Over the Top.

- thehans, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4This makes me laugh at all the people whining about their Carpal Tunnel!
- capiCrimm, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3it actually pulls out it's penis and pisses on you if you loose. Those Japanese people have such a funny sense of humor.

Oh, ...you didn't get that memo? - Scheissen, on 10/10/2007, -3/+6Only in Japan could they have their arms broken by a machine that could be beaten by a girl.
- theMurdocVolta, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2OMG YES , thank Science, its happening to someone else, my friends think I'm ***** crazy.
Whats the deal? I'm losing some good comments.
Oh and we all know thats the same arm that robocop used in 1 & 2, but not 3, we must never talk of Robocop 3 - mbthompson, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Yeah, I have ghost comments as well, there one minute, gone the next.
- DSEZ, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2they had these in the USA to but not exactly this one. we'd get someone to sit on it while others pulled it down... put like 500lbs of pressure on it and u'd win every time
- JangoFett, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Luckily, the company can make up any losses with its new game: Dance Dance Revolution - Minefield Edition
- krawkula, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Anyone notice this is the machine from the gold saucer in FF7? Or was it just me?
- grifta67, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Don't forget Arm Champs 2. This one managed to make it to my local movie theater, where half my six grade class would hang on the arm to beat the final boss!
http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?game_id=6920 - catfishkempster, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Doesn't anyone remember the arm wrestling game that was around in the mid 1980s, to early 1990s? I think they were Nintendo machines. I believe they got pulled after people started reporting shoulder and arm injuries too.
- Bfettmaul, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2What about Over the Top?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Over_the_Top - capiCrimm, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4I believe he was referring to a japanese girl who, from the looks of their porn, can take quite a bit of punishment.
- capiCrimm, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2At least it still posts for you. I don't double post as often, but now my posts randomly disappear. (the pages still show in my "Commented On", but not a comment from me in sight.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I actually played the game at a local arcade and it was damn impossible to beat it...and we used like four hands to put him down
- capiCrimm, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3you must mean from using the mouse? I'm fairly sure you couldn't be insinuating masturbation since everyone knows diggers can't get laid even by themselves.
- skyshock1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I seem to recall a game almost identical to this in the USA around the mid-80's. Can't remember what it was called though.
http://www.npr.org/programs/morning/features/2002/apr/musee/arm_wrestling_main.jpg - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1at least the machine won't taunt you >.
- Bricks, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Yet another example of violent video games. Someone should really hold the strongman inside of each machine accountable.
- Spuy767, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1"That's because droids don't pull people's arms out of their sockets when they lose."
- deags, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1i've seen these in Australia before(2000/1).
- a3r0, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3People in Japan have 3 arms??
- S4MF1SHER, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Who the hell gets "overexcited" playing an arm wrestling game? I mean besides Sylvester Stallone...
Over the Top FTW! - Hetman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1This is awesome. Everytime you think japan cannot get any cooler an article like this pops up and proves me wrong.
- mookieXL, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Dear Atlus, please stop making gimmicky ***** and bring us more shooters. Thank you.
- Gryffydd, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Your use of the word "recall" confused me for a minute there... Damn you English anguage and your plethora of homonyms!
- LegendarySock, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1If Chuck Norris was in the game, more than 3 arms would be broken. Many more.
In fact, all. - beatleman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I rememeber in the late 80's, early 90's when this version of the arm-wrestling game was EVERYWHERE!! http://static.flickr.com/70/185919307_5cfe620c42.jpg
- hockey, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I vote we declare the month of September as wrist awareness month
- pmpsta, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I wanna play that.
- CrimsonBlur, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1The spokesperson for this company is awesome: "The machine isn't that strong, much less so than a muscular man. Even women should be able to beat it," said Atlus spokeswoman Ayano Sakiyama.
So basically, if you broke your arm playing this game, you should be ashamed of yourself. I would love to see the face of one of these idiots that manage to break their arm as the women step up and start beating it. For a Japanese man, I would think breaking your arm playing a game designed to be easy for women would force you to perform Seppuku to restore your honor. - mookieXL, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Getting your arm broken by chihuahua is insulting enough as it is.
- clear9, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1it says EVEN women can do it.....
wow - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I remember this at the Chucky Cheese in Reston VA waaaay back in the day.
