            Anybody have one of these growing up? Only worked with two games. It's a shame it never caught on. I thought it was the future. Maybe someone shut it down prematurely before it could become something beautiful...

            Everyone should have a ROB at some point, growing up or not.

            That was like the Power Glove...
 kinda cool, but you weren't really sure what to do with it...yes/no?The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

 Yeah, the glove only worked with two games as well. It's funny to compare devices from that time period to stuff today. Although some of those 8 bit games still bring me joy.RKCNDY said:That was like the Power Glove...

 I should have kept my old NES...I had very few games, and the gun, but I do kinda miss it, it was in pristine condition, because I was 'that kid'.WhatYouTaughtMe said:

 I loved Jackal and of course Tecmo Super Bowl is a game I still play once in awhile.0

 Seriously? I'm afraid to google that one. I guess it's better than the glove being into them...dankind said:Wasn't there a group of fetishists who were, um, into the power glove? 0
