Those are all normal warnings, i have similar ones even on my Megadrive manuals (dont pour liquid on it, don't cover it with a blanket because it obscures ventillation slots, and so on). Someone just thought they can pull a funny by thinking up random crap next to them.

Besides, Nintendo would get sued by all kinds of fat american kids who pass out from swinging the wiimote too much, so they have to add all kinds of warnings in the manual. It's like the "don't put your cat inside the microwave" thing (look it up, some idiot tried drying her cat in a microwave and then sued the company who made it cause there was no kind of warning in the manual that you cant put animals in the microwave. And she won.).

That's the whole point - they're funny!
But some of those things are just obvious. Although, it seems, not to the Japanese people. They've always been crazy.

Aww, poor cat.

Amazingly, the DS and GBA both had the "no numbchuck" with link cables rule.

I guess they couldn't enforce that one anymore seeing as one of the products is a numbchuck!

Thats nothing, I saw a news program a few years back about "wacky warning labels" and there was one where there was a toilet that said "Warning: The Water in the toilet bowl is recyled flush water; do not drink"
