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

experienced symptoms linked to an
epileptic condition (e.g. a seizure or loss of
awareness), consult your physician before
playing video games. We recommend 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 awareness, 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.
• Do not play if you are tired or
need sleep.
• Always play in a well lit room.
• Be sure to take a 10-15 minute break
every hour while playing.
