| Fan Forum's Finest | This movie was soooo bad, but I loved it anway. LOL! I was never into Nintendo, but I saw this with my video-game-obsessed brother. It was cute and corny at the same time. I rooted all through the movie for them to get to the championship. __________________ | |||

| Fan Forum's Finest | Yahoo! article talking about the crazy glove used in this movie. Motion Controllers...That Didnt Work - Motion Controllers...That Didnt Work - Yahoo! Games  Nintendo might be the current king of motion-control, but they spent years as the court jester thanks to the awful (and awesome) Power Glove. While it looked like all kinds of cheesy fun, its rickety motion-control tech barely worked. Making matters worse, only two games specifically built for the Glove were ever released, quickly turning it into more of a failed curiosity than a must-have. Its one credit? Spawning the so-bad-it's-good Fred Savage flick, "The Wizard." __________________ | |||
