When It Comes To Man Vs. Machine, Machine Always Wins

We wish we could score one of these now re-called Japanese arm-wrestling arcade games to shut up our meat-head friends who get drunk and challenge us to feats of strength. This machine found itself in Japanese arcades and after three players broke their arms, distributor Atlus Co. said they would get rid of all 150 “Arm Spirit” games from the arcades. The 10-level game brings about match-ups with a French maid, a drunken martial arts master, and a Chihuahua all-leading up to the final showdown with a professional wrestler.
Besides putting out a product that turned out to be injury-prone, Atlus Spokeswoman Ayano Sakiyama reminded us that females are wimps:
“The machine isn’t that strong, much less so than a muscular man. Even women should be able to beat it.”
