(GamePro) -- Japanese game maker Atlus said on Tuesday that it would remove 150 Arm Spirit arm-wrestling machines from Japanese arcades after three players broke their arms while wrestling with the machine's mechanized appendage.
"The machine isn't that strong, much less so than a muscular man," said an Atlus spokeswoman.
"Even women should be able to beat it," the company claimed, saying that it would check the machines for malfunctions as "a precaution."
"We think that maybe some players get overexcited and twist their arms in an unnatural way," the rep added.
