Look at my beautiful win on ebay

The power glove was only good for one game, Punch out, and all it did for Punch Out was make it really hard.
Remember the Robot? That sucked too.
Power pad sucked as well, could have been good, but there weren't any good games for it (DDR and Pump proved that Power Pad games could be good, its just that Nintendo never made any good ones.
I find it amazing that nintendo would ship that crap, but they never managed to release the disc drive setup that half the launch titles supported (the save and load menus in Excitebike, Wrecking Crew and others).

Yeah I'm going to have to agree with the whole Powerglove hating going on.
I was so excited, I spent a TON of my paper route money on that piece of crap, and I used it for MAYBE one day. It was just IMPOSSIBLE to use, it didn't work well at all, and it made the whole gameplay experience much worse.
You'd figure Nintendo would do some testing and market research. I know about 20 people who had them, and EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM hated the damn things.
I actually liked that track & field game w/ the power pad tho.
Cheetah ain't got nothin' on me ;D

The powerglove was a software problem. Hack it to a PC interface and it can do some really great stuff.

That's Nintendo marketing 101
