I think it was the power glove or some shit ?

what I wanna know is why the hell you can't get anything like that these days, I mean you could get a gun on the nes (duck hunt rocked) and thats about as good as you can get on the xbox. There is that skateboard thing aswell, but I don't think we've really come that far with game controllers. I mean sure we've added 50 buttons and stuff, but why the hell can't i strap a helmet on and go full 3d yet ??

what do you guys think ??

If you want one, check around at flea markets. I've got a buddy who practically lives at those things. He has loads of things like that. Check around.

Yup, seen that movie at least a dozen times... although I would probably say Goonies and Neverending Story where the two movies I have prolly seen over 50 times each.. loved those movies growing up.

I had that Power Glove back in the day, and it was actually very accurate and fun to use!

I'm a sucker for specialized controllers and music games... I had the Samba de Amigo maracas, but sold em. I still have a pair of Beatmania controllers, a pair of DDR mats, and a Guitar Freaks controller. All of em get pulled out every couple months or so.

Jeez.. I still have both the power glove and the powerpad in storage. As well as the light gun and the robot thing (can't remember his stupid name right now).

The reason the powerglove never caught on was caused it SUCKED!! It was one of the most horrid control devices ever released. It was so inaccurate and slow, it wasn't any fun to use.

Yeah I meant for Xbox, although i don't think i'd ever want one since i'm afraid to do it in the arcade. The kids would prolly laugh their asses off at me...........and throw fruit.

OMG... the NES UFORCE controller. Utter crap.. as you need to move your hand over a bunch of beams of light.. which would track your movement.. and translate it to the game.

Most either didn't work right.. or people got tired holding their hands in the air.

That's cool. I still love duck hunt. I thought it was awesome how a light gun works. used to get the whole family together and play duck hunt.
