THE LATEST game action on the Wii console can cause weight loss as if you were doing a real work out, according to a bogger.

Wii user Mickey DeLorenzo claims that he is 4KG (nine pounds) lighter after playing Wii Sports games for more than six weeks and a day.

Speaking to WiiNintendo.net, DeLorenzo, 25 noticed that he was breathless and sweaty after pummelling his missus in the Wii Sports boxing game.

He set up a daily regimen and started a blog to record his results. He ate as usual and didn't deprive himself during the holidays. The only thing that changed was the addition of daily, 30-minute sessions of Wii tennis, bowling, boxing or baseball.

Apparently he was 181 pounds when he started and it all fell away. There are loads of before and after pictures to prove his point.

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
