Consumer Information
NOTICE ABOUT EPILEPSY AND SEIZURES
PLEASE READ THIS NOTICE BEFORE YOU
OR YOUR CHILD USE ANY VIDEO GAME.
A very small portion of the population
has a condition, which may cause a
momentary loss of consciousness when
viewing certain kinds of flashing lights
or patterns that are commonly present
in our daily environment. This condition
may cause seizures while watching
some kinds of television pictures or
playing certain video games. Players
who have not had any previous seizures
may nonetheless have an undetected
epileptic condition.
If you or anyone in your family has
experienced symptoms linked to an
epileptic condition (e.g. a seizure or loss
of awareness), consult your physician
before playing video games. We recom-
mend that parents observe their children
while they play video games. If you
or your child experience any of the
following symptoms such as dizziness,
altered vision, eye or muscle twitching,
involuntary movements, loss of aware-
ness, disorientation or convulsions,
DISCONTINUE USE IMMEDIATELY and
consult your physician.
Additionally, please follow these
precautions whenever playing a
video game:
• Do not sit or stand too close to the
television screen. Play as far back
from the screen as possible.

need sleep.

every hour while playing.
