Wii power glove



Remember the NES power glove? The Power Glove was unique in the fact that it was a glove instead of the normal control pad. The glove had a traditional D-pad on the forearm as well as a program button and buttons labeled 0-9. A person would hit the program button and a numbered button to do various things (such as increase or decrease the firing rate of the A and B buttons). Along with the controller, a gamer could move his or her hand in various movements to control a character on-screen.

Unfortunately the power glove wasn't a huge hit on the NES but, even so, it hasn't stopped Nintendo fans wishing for it's return on Wii. Nintendo are now in a position to improve the past problems and bring the glove back with great success.

Some guy has knocked up an artist's impression of the power glove concept from Nintendo for Wii with this conceptual advert.

this will mean nothing without classic feature-length adverts

The Wii is shaping very nicely. Was a bit spectacle at first (Xbox man) but its really growing on me.

This is an interesting idea, and would allow greater interactivity for further game genres, such as boxing titles and even certain fps. Kinda fills in the holes for where the regular wii controller and nunchuku couldn't really apply to in a game.
