WARNING
A very small percentage of the public, due to an existing condition, may experience epileptic 
seizures or momentary loss of consciousness when viewing certain types of ashing colors or 
patterns, especially on television. While the 
V-Motion

risks, we do recommend that parents supervise their children while they play video games. 
If your child experiences dizziness, altered vision, disorientation, or convulsions, discontinue 
use immediately and consult your physician.

controls for a prolonged period of time may cause fatigue or discomfort. We recommend that 
children take a 15 minute break for every hour of play.
