    This game was huge. People that weren’t around at the time don’t understand how much better it was than previous games.

    They made a freaking MOVIE to promote it!

    And that stupid glove.

    Looking back, boy did they have vision. I get that the Power Glove wasn't all it was cracked up to be but Nintendo really saw early on how we want to interact with our machines.

    Then somewhere along the way they realized they could make a lot of money by relicensing the same game over and over again, and suing their most loyal fans out of existence.

    The power glove was like Wii version 0.0.0.1.

    The amount of weird tech that got thrown around in the NES days was baffling. U-force was probably the weirdest thing I ever tried to play a game with.
