The Stroke Research Team at Cornwall recruited a gentleman named Mark Bennett to be the final patient in their research study that investigates whether playing Nintendo Wii for several weeks after an acute stroke is an effective form of rehabilitation. The unique experiment is called TWIST, or “The Wii In Stroke Study.” Sufferers of stroke often experience weakness in their arms, and doctors expect the repetitive motions necessary to play Wii games to be instrumental in rehabilitating patients back to normal arm strength. Doctors at the research center are expecting to release the first results from the study about six weeks from now. Interestingly, the final participant, Mr. Bennett, is patient number 101.
Yes
He is the Wonderful 101!
101 is only fun in one case: if you stick your nuts in the blazing hot sun. Compared to this, yes yes, the 101 is some fun.
wonderful 101 is a wii exclusive
What a wonderful opportunity he has.
Very nice!
Are you talking about this?
*Whips his moldy nut sack out and places it on a fresh slice of bread.
this is the way god intended.
i like this.
But remember guys, the Wii sucks and only babehz play it.
F
Butthurt much Sonydrone?
Caterpie senses you are terrible at picking sarcasm!
Well I sense you really don’t know your English seeing how that WASN’T sarcasm
Caterpie senses someones getting angry ;)
The guy is only joking lol Any retard could see that!
If I was “Retarded” then I wouldn’t be able to convey my words only. Also, how did you take “anger” out of a comment online? As a matter of fact I was very neutral over the comment and only a bad troll would reply with such a pathetic reply. ;)
Same way I’ve seen you take “anger” out of comments online ;)
Yes, keep feeding the troll! Such a genius you are!
Stop eating, you’re too fat.
stfu you basement dweller, yes we all saw what you look like and it also looked like you were in a basement in front of a pc. not surprising for some loser who acts the way you do at the age of like what was it 30??
OMG UR SUCH A BAD TROLL, I’M GONNA FEED U SO MUCH NOW.
IM SO SMART AND FAT. PATHTEIC UMAD BRO!? DHJSLHFSJLHD
It was mot definitely sarcasm. It’s plainly obvious. He’s drawing attention to the fact that the Wii is fantastic and clearly it is played by and carries benefits for people other than babies.
*most definitely
If the Wii sucks a ball sack only does it suck. But what kind of of ball sack? A hairy three-balled sack (Microsoft, Sony and PC).
wow 101 they had to have planned that
lol XD

I don’t know whether to be offended by the name of the project or not… hmmmmm
Caterpie senses you are mad. U Mad Bro? Yeah U Mad.
Again, how is one angry? I’m guessing you don’t much about jokes either, oh the irony
I’M COMING TO EAAAAAAAAT YOUUUUU.
Jokes on Wii Wii like a little child’s wii wii. Maybe not for babies but for toddlers. Wah Wah my Wii Wii is Poop Poop out of Mii Miiyamoto’s ass crack!
Yeah U Mad. Stop being Mad. What is it with you being Mad?
This is what I believe is the Wii’s biggest advantage, yet it’s the least reported on – it gets people gaming that never did before. Does anyone here think that Apple got Grammies and Mommies playing casual video games? No. I have a number of relatives in nursing homes. (I am 50 and my family is old. Lol.) They would have never played Bubble Pop-type games, if they hadn’t been introduced to the Wii for therapy. Other systems like to hype how they have made strides in gaming and development for people with disabilities, but the Wii has done exponentially more, but they don’t get, or seek, the press for it.
Who cares about advertising to old people, the disabled, or stroke victims – they’re pretty much already in their graves. I get the whole “everoyone” demographics, but I don’t think that’s where Nintendo’s main focus should be.
I never said it should be their main focus. I’m just saying it’s another way that Nintendo is revolutionary, but never gets mainstream credit for it. Everyone falls all over themselves to anoint Microsoft as being groundbreaking for some of the insignificant things they do and the PS3 gets a lot of credit from the medical community for that health based thing they were doing (the name escapes me right now), but all it did was give people credit for logging onto it and staying logged in for long periods of time. All they were doing was going to work or sleeping while they were logged on. They weren’t accomplishing anything, yet they were lauded for this. Meanwhile, Nintendo comes up with something that not only was a great gaming system, but it also actually helped people in an entirely non-profitable demographic in the process. Apple also owes them a great debt because a lot of them are hooked on casual games that they would have never even knew existed, if they didn’t know how much fun games could be.

Why go through all this trouble, when all they need, is to kill patient 0?
There you have it folks…
Nintendo cures stroke patients…
Medicine continues to amaze us by inventing more and more ways to quickly and effectively rehabilitate after illnesses. This is impressive, because the latest methods allow you to return to active life much faster. Of course, the best thing to do is to regularly monitor your health to avoid problems. For example, if you pay attention to resources such as https://curaveindoctors.com/wayne-nj/ , you can find a lot of useful information about the prevention and treatment of various diseases, which will help you stay healthy and active.
It’s fascinating to see how innovative therapies like the TWIST study are exploring unconventional methods for stroke rehabilitation. The idea of using Nintendo Wii for arm strength recovery is both creative and promising. I’ll definitely be keeping an eye out for the results in six weeks! Hopefully, this method proves effective and becomes a regular part of post-stroke therapy. Has anyone else heard of similar studies?
This advice is spot on for anyone looking to start a business! The emphasis on patience and building a strong foundation really resonates. I appreciate how you highlight the importance of long-term planning. Thanks for sharing such valuable insights – it’s definitely motivating for those of us just starting out.
