Sega's Activator demostration @ WCES '93 Las Vegas

[jamatuselin]

Unfortunately, the Power Glove, didn´t work

for that reason was a failure in sales

[Christianrockrockz]

I just bought an Activator. Now I have to wait for it to arrive.

[JackDaScarecrow]

Streets of Rage 2 excellent choice Bob

[downphoenix]

hello there Kinect from 17 years ago!

[glitchhunter09]

It had potential but it just didn't cut it. I like the concept of the Activator. It's too bad it had so many problems.

[dziltener]

@glitchhunter09 The only problem it had was that there were too few games designed to work with it - afair only the pack-in games were "Activated" as they called it.

I have one and it works perfect and responsive.

"Those glasses dont look thick enough for you to be a good gamer"!!! That guy is rude but very funny!!

[VikutaaChyaaruzu]

"Welcome to Chippendale's." o.O O.o O.O o.o OwO

[BUnitLives]

That announcer is one of the only people in the entire world I would take a piss on.

[joemj413]

You'd probably take a piss on me too, I'm more obnoxious than that guy!

[lucace1996]

man that thing sucked nooo were near the wii

i love streets of rage 2 tho

[Lockmat666]

Yeah, this is totally like Wii. Except for the fact it's a big retarded piece of junk that nobody bought except Sega fan boys. OH WOW YOU CAN HIT A BY STEPPING BACKWARDS! THAT ENHANCES EVERYTHING!

[pinmonkey555]

No one bought it because they were fanboys dipshit. People bought stuff like this and the Power Glove because it seemed bad ass at the time.

[Lockmat666]

And after the first person bought one everybody stopped because they told all their friends it was fuckin' garbage. Power Glove was a way better idea than Activator. Both were executed horribly however.

[pinmonkey555]

Oh so true. The power glove could've been the best thing since sliced bread.

[theFFVIguy]

Trauma Center is not shitty hardware hank. The controls are innovative, not gimmicky. You are just afraid that it will kill your precious Piece of Shit 3 because it's so much better and cheaper too.

[Lockmat666]

I'm pretty disappointed with all of the next-gen systems to be perfectly honest.

[DawnOfTherion]

moron

[theFFVIguy]

moron

[CornholioFan98]

moron

[CobraStyleDevil]

dude the ads for this thing where extremely misleading. my cousin got one for christmas one year. we played eternal champions for about 15 min until we realized that this thing was horribly awkward and you could never move you whole body faster than someone can move their thumbs.

[keisnel]

I remember this, made a big impression.

Maybe thats why i bought a Wii

[ZPBander]

What's this? A non-gaming older woman playing on a console and anjoying it? With a proper game like Streets of Rage 2 and not some bollocks like Wii-Fit?

This is precisely why Sega should still be making consoles.

[allenliu1973]

this is better then the stupid power glove

[clsmithj]

Just like Nintendo wii

[QuillOmega0]

Yes, this is exactly the same as holding a remote control and waving it around.

[styber]

but it is fuckin 12 years earlier, so what was your point?
