People love the Nintendo Wii, but what they don't know is that the Wii is being used by all sorts of ways. One way is to give the elderly at retirement homes a way to exercise. Some are even holding large tournaments for Wii bowling. Another use has been for soldiers to deal with combat wounds.

A Canadian researcher is finding that video games have been a great aid to people with chronic pain. Nintendo Wii does a good job of immersing you in the game so you forget about many things that bother you. It's already being used as a physical therapy machine so treating chronic pain fits right in.
