Nintendo PowerGlove Commercial

[bangasou12]

ps childs play

[Primerica4life]

I had one of these... wow I forgot about this ........

[Litosaurus]

Teleporting fat guy sent me here

[Leachim911]

First Wii Remote!!

[ResediVlad]

Summer 1990.

Awesome.

[MrMajorasmask101]

This fucking thing does not work!!!!

[doid1337]

Teleporting fat guy!

[NothinsM]

so the first motion controlled game?

[codystafford]

Before its time

[Mike8901000]

So...if I get the Power Glove, I'll be cool like that guy?

[shtzandgigglesfilms]

@Mike8901000 lol

[18shadowolf]

is this guy on crack?

[vaibanez17]

Where are all these kids playing video games in factories? Seems like every other commercial for video games back then the kid was playing in a factory at night...wtf?

[DJMC5ive]

@vaibanez17 lmao! awesome. I just realized that when you said it. come to think of it, nerf is like that too

[justnormaldude]

piece of crap

[SilentVoltaire]

This only comes out of my one speaker. .

[TokyoFMNA]

Teleporting, Teleporting, Teleporting Fat Guy!

[tegsnightmare4]

@TokyoFMNA smosh rox

[MEMPHISBUTCHA]

I HAVE IT, IT'S COVERED IN DUST THOUGH.

[Marcostudiostube]

First the pwerglove next the wii :)

[xTheDeathSaintx]

if they honestly where to remake this with todays technology, i would buy it. picture this, rebuilt, and instead of with the wii its with the connect. the glove can have sensors so you can actually get a feel of wht ur doing. maybe some light elctrical stimulation, so you feel when you pull a trigger. and to feel your hand sliding into a bowling ball it sends a wave down the finger as it enters so you feel it. im sure they can do something along those lines

[xTheDeathSaintx]

this idea is the greatest idea ever.......too bad the idea was the only great part....

[lunatiksAlterEgo]

I never knew anyone who owned this.

[n2kmaster]

@lunatiksAlterEgo I did and seen one recently but cant find a working NES anymore to try it

[Christianrockrockz]

@n2kmaster just go on Ebay.

[tegsnightmare4]

@n2kmaster u got to put in the power code

DU

[n2kmaster]

@tegsnightmare4 well you still needed a working nes system lol. I knew the codes had to be inputted before the game was played. I'm from that generation and watched "The Wizard" I know how they work lol, still need a console that works and around here they are getting pretty scarce.

[WebVMan]

Kinect is child's play. Real gamers wear gloves when they play games.

[epit0me]

lmao you guys catch him clearing the coke from his nose in the very beginning of the video when he's walking in?

[beylerk]

As bad as this and the Virtual Boy was, without them we might never have gotten the Wii and the 3DS. Nintendo had to learn from their mistakes in order to develop them!

[sylvur]

Ahh, so much wasted money. My parents got so pissed off when they found out I wasn't playing this $100 piece of shit anymore after only a few days after begging them to buy one for me.

[YoshiPocket]

this glove isn't officialy from Nintendo

[NWpowerhouse85]

It's amazing how cool this looked to a 5-6-year-old back then, and when you look at it now, even in the commercial, it looks like a cheesy piece of crap lmfao

Nevermind the fact that it was outrageously expensive, tedious to set up, and didn't even work all that well in execution. What a pile of garbage. Mattel = epic fail on this one.

[Acellio]

I guess tvs only had 1 speaker back then because I only hear the audio coming out of my left speaker

[spaijkull]

I didn't know Tom Cruise did a Minority Report in 1990...

[dcowboys6213]

This thing was a piece of shit

[irismey]

I remember that glove I think the people who made the Wii system was trying to make it a comeback. Now, I get it! Thanks, for the memories.

[furQ]

:smugdog:

[Oxyster7]

they wouldn't get away with that kind of advertising lie these days.

[CrushingC10996WM]

i would buy it, just 2 wear it

[EzioAuditoreXIII]

they are cooler just to wear.

[crazybay46913]

The powerglove: everything else is a real controller.

[Officer94]

the first wii mote ever! xD

[Mr8bitgamer]

wow if i could beat the shit out off punch out like that that would be awesome

[DevilMaster]

What did they have back then? A motion controller (Power Glove) and a stereoscopic console (Virtual Boy). What do they have now? A motion controller (Wiimote) and a stereoscopic console (3DS).

[koopa2222]

@DevilMaster Power glove isn't motion control, and virtual boy rapes your eyes

[playtube2000]

MICROSOFT BEAT THIS IN 1990!

[jwhitloctombraider]

The only function of this thing is that it looked awesome and EPIC XD

[sideslide23]

nice Powerglove works almost like the nintendo Wii today.

[Bocaj77]

You can make fun of the Powerglove but it led to the Wii, Connect and Move

[ArsArma]

@Bocaj77 fuck, where can i buy a time machine so it never leads to the Wiimote, Crapnet, and Move?

[Iamtehzombie]

Was that Tom Cruise

[legendarymanic39]

whats it liek? impossible to control? why is the power glove hated?

[Atrus2225]

@legendarymanic39 impossible to control? Yes, yes it is. AVGN did an episode on it (if you know who he is) and showed how very very very bad it is.

[BarbieBillionaire]

Is it me or does he have a BIG bulge down there @ 0:03?!!! MMMmm...!!!!!

[tom3999]

The Big tv this douchebag is playing his powerloveglove on must have been the biggest sized tv ever built in the late 80s ahhaha

[tom3999]

THE POWER LOVE GLOVE, SEGA is better

[ninstarnin]

wow and where are we at now?

[tsimisde]

Dont compare the power glove with the wiimote because the power glove doesn't work

[DeathsNotoriousAngel]

@tsimisde what are you talking about?!? The power glove works for me all the time. Whether I need something to wedge the door open or I'm punching some old lady in the face, the power glove NEVER lets me down XD

[Knoss]

I wonder if this could be reintroduced for wii or kinnect now that such devices can be actually made to work.

[superdonkeykonglogan]

its so bad.

[jokebooks]

I had a power glove and it sucked, big time.



[jafri]

I love the power glove... It's so bad. I mean it's a piece of crap periphal ever. Good thing that now they had Wii, Kinect for 360 & of course, Playstation Move for PS3.

[TEACHERTIGERSHAH]

I remember when this was new. It was a flop nintendo product, but is was cool how they were able to manufactured it back in that early 90's, almost 20 years ago.

[roy1996]

Tom Cruise

[TheCoasterreview]

wow he punched so hard the tv broke is'ent the power glove great!

[8Billybobs]

I love the powerglove. its so bad

[patjuan32]

akkudakkupl,

Nintendo did not develop the Power Glove, Mattel did.

[playout128]

@patjuan32 no nintendo did dumb fuck

[DaGamerChef]

Natal is shit!!!! is not sarcasm!!

[Sacriphyx]

Flop.

[juicey1984]

What's so fucked up about this crappy-ass glove is that, their were only two games specifically built for the Glove, were ever released.

[DukeofColumbia]

heeh, that guy is straight out of the 80's with his denim jacket.

Flash forward 20 years, and he'd be sporting a hoodie.

[KILEKUMA]

@DukeofColumbia he'd be wearing a hoodie because he probably lost most of his hair by now. LOL

[Robtopia77]

The first wii attempt!

[awesomevideogamefan]

I LOVE THE POWER GLOVE ITS SO BAD

[RXTVonline]

a puerto rican kid stole my power glove...:(

[WebVMan]

I hate the Power Glove... It's so bad.

[asbeitemu]

I love the power glowe... Its so BAD

[9001Captainfalcon]

It's so bad.

[sharkperson1]

Is that Tom Cruise?

[GANESHAN]

the way how the guy use the power glove made it look so awesome but in reality it really sucks in some ways. Back in those days commercials like that were so awesome. No bullshit :). I miss those days.

[whit52489]

Is that Tom Cruise?

[strongsock]

fuckin radical man. that glove is choice!

[Tullerman]

watch the angry videogames review on this crap

[RayTheWindBreaker]

Everything else Is child's play.

WELL ATLEAST CHILD'S PLAY DOESN'T SUCK!!!

[Thomasmemoryscentral]

@RayTheWindBreaker Yeah, everything else it only child's play if:

1. You have one that works

2. The proper setup (a certain distance from the TV, sensors setup, centered and proper program for each game)

3. A game that works with it (not zapper games or powerpad games).

[RandomDirectors]

We need next gen power gloves...

They could be awesome if they implemented new technology.

[DevilMaster]

@RandomDirectors The closest you get is a glove called P5, currently sold by a company called Cyberworld Inc.

It was originally made in 2002 and it could only work on XP, then the drivers became open source and the new releases improved precision and compatibility.

[taskr36]

Lol, they really made some awesome commercials for that piece of crap. I was lucky enough to have a friend that got it so I didn't have to get my parents to waste money finding out how bad it was. Anyone who thinks it worked like a Wii, clearly never tried to use it. It is NOT like what you see in the commercial.

[Clintron4000]

it may have been a lame add on money grab thing and may have sucked but the wii remote is only marginally better with slightly more functionality. and only due to advances in technology at that. also it took them over 17 years to do that much. If you ask me its the average consumer who has changed not the product in regards to nintendos recent success with the wii.

[wpmonster]

QMG I had a Power Glove... it was a huge waste of my parent's money

[Wrxrtd]

So 80s it is awesome!!!

[redwallfan123]

here is my response to the "everything else is childs play" i dont know the childs play is easier to play than this dumb thing

[TheRastaJoe101]

too bad it sucked hard

[manfandan]

nice commercial.....to bad its a peice of crap. and i saw a vid of one for the wii

[InsaneRadiation]

One of the Cheesiest things of the 90's

[Rantandum]

i love the power glove.....it's so bad!

[bvaia]

@Rantandum Seriously Its so bad!

[BHT70]

*power glove The controller darth vader uses

[tgiv2252]

Yea one of the greatest lines from the movie the wizard. It's great to know I am not the only one who remembers that one :)

[KoopaTroop90]

@Rantandum He was serious. - Brentalfloss

[tim3058]

this video just wreaks of awesomeness

[novaction]

A wii power glove would be interesting for boxing games...

[ross259]

@novaction Just put a regular boxing glove on and tape your wii remote to it.

[TheRedDash]

ah THE 80'S

[FredFredBurgerStudio]

Cool I want one for the wii!

[onnamejoe]

prehistoric wii

[SaViOrStArDrAgOn95]

It sucks monkey fuck.

[AstroZombee87]

@SaViOrStArDrAgOn95 Dude this was back in the 80's....if it wasn't for things like this you would have your precious playstation 3 or xbox 360, damn kids..

[MrSamToxx]

i remember having this when i was a kid! before my dog chewed through the wire -.-

[mx5master]

the problem is it doesnt work right its just a prototype of WII.......

[dothedewww123]

wow! i always wanted this when i was a kid but could never afford it. just got a Wii for christmas. how funny that nintendo knew how to do this so long ago and is now marketing it

[Starwind18020]

I'm gonna go watch the wizard

[sovietwarchild]

Who knew many years later we would be doing this with the Wii controller, kind of shocked they have not come out with a Wii Power Glove, lol.

[timcarlsondo]

avgn a whiny bitch. this thing is bad ace. I also bet anyone that owned one beat off with it, just saying is all. That dude totally looked like Tom Cruise. I'm also kind of wondering where his game pad is cuz that's a tight setup there. Made me wish I had that tv back then

[Sollythesilent]

I love the power glove.... It's so bad.

[MrNintendofan1985]

this thing was probably a fuckin ripoff huh? the avgn said it sucked monkey fuck.

[dangerfanboy45]

One Bad ass guy.

Beats the power gloves games.

[TheDarkestAbYsS]

Tom is in everything.

[IRISHMOBSTER55]

what the fuck is that tom cruise?

[DWAmichigan]

That thing is a piece of shit. Exactly why i hate the 80's compared to the great 90's.

The 80's had so much old junk that sucked. 90's had greater shit.

[awesomepivots]

if u look in the bottom right hand corner, it says availible summer, 1990.....

[DWAmichigan]

yeah but it was close to the late late 80's. The 90's didn't get good until 91-92

[aoshima6566]

just about everything you see today was invented in the 80's. Of course later decades would have better stuff cause they are improved versions

[cdowg187]

That was the biggest dick tease ever. The fuckin thing never even worked! lol

[StudioStar]

It probably doesnt work on LCD, plasma, or DLP screens, just like the gun for duck hunt.

[rossdans]

Actually, it's weired, it uses ultra sonic sound so it has a sensor bar you put on the tv, the type of tv wouldnt matter.

[liphttam]

No It does. There are three sensors you hang on your tv. top right, top left, and botom right.

[Topaz1115]

dang.. soo high tech!

[Directorboy91]

That guy at the start is fucking badass!

[AnnMargret11]

Is it me, or does that guy look like a young Nathan Fillion?

[Desertfox858]

@AnnMargret11 it does! or a less-gay Tom Cruise

[lNintendoguy96l]

Ok. I need this for my Halloween costume. Im going as a kick@ss looking super gamer.

[Hellbat06]

Made from Matel, :o

[HarleyAMV]

Yeah childsplay my ass!

The damn thing doesnt work! bought one for 200$ and that didnt work right, so I bought a new one, didnt work ether.. -.-" bought 3 more cuz I was pissed... No one worked!

[FURRYFOX27]

i heard the glove never worked. the add was to sucker you in

[noshadowmaster]

You dumb ass XD! Nintendo made both of those products hahah....

[akkudakkupl]

wiimote prototype from 90' ? :D

[neolancer005]

actually it is prototype to the wiimote! the powerglove was so bad because of it imprecise and diffcult controls. i found one in my aunt's attic! looked bad ass to me!

[SGwizard1]

@akkudakkupl 80s!

[akkudakkupl]

@SGwizard1 even better :D

[Adeon55]

@akkudakkupl Yes. It was extremely bad.

[aperfectfailyour]

why is this in mono

[tppickles]

I had one of these it was horrible it was impossible to use and extremely hard to get anything done with the random controls it gave you in the book it had me moving my fingers independently of one another to do random things that it was supposed to do but never did, i ended up using it as a Halloween prop one year lol

[Strome88]

That thing is only good for jerking off while playing mario bros. lol

[jorden9k]

the remote is called a wiimote XD and this glove sucks

[asittingducktv]

awesome

[wwefuture01]

is that tom cruse in this commercial cause that kinda looks like him lol

[manervic]

isnt the idea of the wii exactly the same at the powerglove?

[fightingpro25]

Dude... They're both Nintendo...

[30GB]

omg your a complete retard

[spritemoney]

lol i swear i didn't type that comment, it must of been my sister, i watched this video!, but i think she typed it, lol

[ross259]

@manervic pretty much except the wii works.

[kevy06]

Seriously the only real use for this is if you wanted to pretend you were Predator and blow yourself up with fireworks attached to you.

[deathsimm]

Its better than the wiimote in so many ways search Wii vs Power Glove

[VaidotTheDSplayer]

The nerd lost to glass joe with the power glove

[wamji84]

but in 2009 if they make a shit like that it will work and be freaking cool...

[vatolocoese12]

the powere glove was such a epic FAIL!!!!

[HunterTuts]

your born was a such epis FAIL!!!!

[Jontiac]

grammatically, I FAIL to understand this comment.

[HeroofWind1]

And what the hell is "epis?" The "C" and "S" keys aren't even that close to each other. I concur with Jontiac. That comment is the penultimate epitome of Fail (the epitome of fail being the commentator his/herself.

[Kavelman]

"everything else is child's play" hahaha so this is for the grown ups? ^^

[YoshiTheBlue]

This would have been great if it fucking worked.

[Customcoasters91]

that peice of shit was the worst $10 i ever spent

[laxinthe303]

Worked like TOTAL crap.

[Smampman]

Ahh the Power Glove......

I think the Wii is a power glove game console O_o

[Calebus]

God I miss the 90s

[Hustinetten44]

that was the 80s nap :P

[denizkoekden]

of course

"Available Summer 1990"

[MistyShadow007]

Wow This dude would be great as a plumber. Cause he's already handling with enough shit by using the power glove :P

[AwesometacularDesign]

lol good one
