Title: Any games that can use Power Glove?
Post by: wilykat on November 21, 2015, 01:15:21 PM

I got a few gloves and a couple sensor bars sitting unused because most NES games I play don't play well with the glove. So I was wondering if any other console could use it or if there aren't any decent 3D type game that could really use the glove.

Although the glove is made for NES, it can be hacked to work on other consoles.

PS when did the power glove become so expensive?  The sensor bar by itself can reach $100 easy.

Yeah the Power Glove I saw for $150. That is crazy. I hadn't heard anything about the Power glove modded to work on the Turbo Grafx 16. My friend had one back in the day and is just plain sucked at playing any game on. I picked one up years ago for dirt.

I dunno about the NES but if I recall correctly it was used as a low cost Dataglove for PC applications (modded to use PC serial port), the NES one is basically a simplified version of the commercial Dataglove with less precision on finger bending and some other stuff. Of course since the NES has ZERO 3D support at all, and with only one or two games (the rest are just standard NES pad emulation) the power glove is "shit".


Why is it expensive? I guess that's just COLLECTARDS ! ! !

That would be nice to see. It might work on "It came from the Desert".
