And of course there's no real way to reply to anyone on the poll answers, so I shall just reply to
farli here, about the PS2 game thing --
SSX Tricky is OK on my wrist, because there's no seriously rapid-fire button pushings (at least in the Time Challenge) - you get a couple seconds rest between things, and I can use both wrists equally. I also ahve a cheapass poker game that's fine. XD
I played some Soul Calibur 2 this weekend, and while my carefully-thought-out strategy of randomly mashing buttons as fast as possible did serve me in good stead for the most part, by the end of about 15-20 minutes, my wrist was starting to protest and I quit before I hurt it worse.
There's bound to be some other games out there which don't require as much fast button-pressing, and I can keep my fast-game stuff confined to short periods of time.
[In case someone didn't read my VERY IMPORTANT poll, this is in reference to a question that asked for recommendations for PS2 games that didn't aggravate the tenosynovitis in my right wrist, as I discovered Soul Calibur 2 did this weekend.]
[And let me state right here that the misspelling of 'calibre' in that title DRIVES ME CRAZY.]
