Trauma Center, Delivering Bad News in

No one likes to deliver bad news to the family and friends of the recently departed. Nevertheless, it is a part of being a doctor and the unique input properties of the Wii and DS have let the developers of Trauma Center bring this challenging part of healthcare to gamers everywhere:
- Pat shoulder of bereaved mother 4 times and say “he died peacefully” into DS mic
- Use Wiimote to slowly pull surgical mark off face and shake head side-to-side remorsefully
- Attach Mario Kart Wii wheel and steer gurney to waiting room. Press A to withdraw sheet.
- Use Wiimote and nunchuck to control dead body as marionette and stage heartfelt goodbye as mother to surviving six-year old
- Use stylus to brush aside tears and then gather family around cafeteria fridge where you arrange magnet poetry words to spell out “your son is dead.”
- Use WiiFit balance board as gas pedal. Drive to Hallmark store. Purchase hilarious Shoebox brand card for widower featuring old granny saying “I heard you’re on the market!”
