Retro Scan of the Week: Little Timmy and the Arm-length Power Glove

April 24th, 2006 by Benj Edwards
NES Power Glove Manual

In this action-packed scan of the NES Power Glove manual cover, we see little Timmy hopping from leg to leg, trying to get in on the finger-bolt-shooting action. “Oooh! Oooh! Lemmie try!” he begs Lighting Finger Man. “Sorry, little Timmy. I think that glove is a little big for you,” LFM replies. “You must also understand that with great Power Gloves comes great responsibility,” he continues, “You are not yet ready to wield the awesome power of this lethal device.”

[Note: The mysterious stains on the manual cover are not mine. For that, you can thank the previous owner.]

    ITS VERY UNDERSTANABLE TO MAKE FUN OF MATTELL’S POWERGLOVE, SINCE THEY ALSO MANUFACTURE BARBIE DOLLS. BUT DO NOT EVERRRRR MAKE FUN OF THE POWER PAD. THIS COULD BE THE SINGLE FUNNEST PIECE OF GAMING HARDWARE EVER. RACING CHEETAH, HORSE, BEAR, ETC. AS A KID WAS THE SHEITTTTTTT.

    “I love the Power Glove. It’s so bad” directly describes how I feel about my Famicom Power Glove. I love the power glove.
