The Wizard

A recent coversation with player 2 revealed a common lust from long ago.
The Nintendo Power Glove.
The commercials made it look so bad ass that we had to have one. And when I was like 7, man lemme tell you, that scene from The Wizard sealed the deal. That kid was so awesome with his power glove that his friends would set up his Nintendo so they could watch him play.
Upon a review of the clip… http://youtube.com/watch?v=UfyxWhwia90
I have to say, it’s kind of lost its appeal. Player 2 put he best when he said “100% lame.”
Now I’m kind of scared to go take a look at other things I thought were awesome when I was younger. I really don’t want them to end up like the power glove.
