At the time it came out I thought the Power Glove was the greatest thing in all of Nintendo. I also had what was called the Power Pad which was used in like sprinting games. I think I had just about everything about the old NES. Too bad i grew up lol, because I don't seem interested in video games anymore.
shareI did. Hated the damn thing. Never worked right, and it was just so much easier to play the game with a normal controller. The only game we ever got to work even remotely well was Punch Out (never worked quite right, but it's the only game I remember being sort of fun on the Power Glove), and that game was fun enough already.
The power glove was simply bad.
The Power Glove may have been the Edsel of gaming accessories, but its legend lives on! There's a documentary in the works about it.

Say it with me now; "I love the Power Glove. It's so..."

I had a Power Glove. It was stolen from me lol. Like many others said, it didn't work, but I liked having it as a collectable.
shareI hate the Power Glove. It sucks.
shareI had the Zapper and the Power Pad. My neighbor across the street had the power glove and played Mike Tyson's Puch-Out with it.
About the Power Pad, I only remember one game that used it, other than the game it came with, World Class Track Meet. I think it was some kind of aerobics cartridge, not really even a competetive game.

I remember running on the power pad and it never seemed to work right. I know a lot of my frienda would pound on the pad with their hands to fake the running.

I did, and it was probably the worst peripheral I ever got. Though Super Scope Six was pretty bad.

I had one and it was fun for like the first two or three times I used it then never used it again. Sold it on Ebay for some good money. I had the Roll N Rocker which was weird. My favorite thing for the NES was the NES Advantage. Awesome controller. This movie was so lame in comparison to the NES.
