Oh, but I did. 😎

(but power glove)

zdroberts.bsky.social•81 days ago

Shit. I thought this was me as a kid for a moment. I had the glove, gun and gameboy.

demusk.ing•81 days ago

Light gun, yeah.
Hogans Alley & Duck Hunt FTW.

How much use did you get out of the Power Glove?

madimadas.bsky.social•81 days ago

I did and I had the mat too.

If the movie The Wizard was a person.

asadiablo.me•81 days ago

Kid was living the dream then.

Now THAT’S what I call Nintendo Power.

It's so bad (in a good way)

razorbunz.bsky.social•81 days ago

This was the dream.

buradimari.bsky.social•81 days ago

That's the year my older brother was born.

Had a powerglove. The coolest mist worthless thing I owned. Wish I still had it (lost in a fire). Sure I could integrate it into the vr headset I never use

noremac75.bsky.social•82 days ago

The Power Glove was trash, and I won't stand for your attempts to make it good in retrospect!

geektyrant.com•82 days ago

It was a good prop… but a terrible controller

donbrando.bsky.social•82 days ago

My brother got it, and we did not use it uncomfortable fit, I thought. Kids got a sweet setup, though.

chillygills.bsky.social•81 days ago

By the time I finally got to try a power glove my hand was way too big for the stupid thing. Fuck you, Lucas, you're not that cool.

geektyrant.com•81 days ago

Having big hands… better than the opposite

blametag.bsky.social•81 days ago

It's so bad.

storminspank.com•82 days ago

My family didn't have the money, so, yeah, I could only dream!

madmaudlin.bsky.social•81 days ago

I found the kid that kid bullied.

geektyrant.com•81 days ago

At least he’s a billionaire now

That was me in the 80’s.

zachuncorked.bsky.social•82 days ago

Too bad that power glove was straight trash

eaustin1969.bsky.social•81 days ago

I still have that Nintendo in the back and it works 😂

straymeerkat.bsky.social•81 days ago

I need to confess that I'm jealous.

eaustin1969.bsky.social•81 days ago

I’ve kept the first three Nintendo systems that came out. Idk why 🤷🏼‍♀️

eaustin1969.bsky.social•81 days ago

Two controllers and golden eye, Mario party, and a few other games as well. It’s super funny that I’m not a pack rat but that’s something I did keep.

straymeerkat.bsky.social•81 days ago

I wish I still had my black and white Game Boy, I loved that thing, lol.

johnkris.bsky.social•82 days ago

Actually bought one when it came out. The 3D handball game was a bit of a disappointment.

jennysampson.bsky.social•81 days ago

You’ve got to see the Christmas movie 8 Bit Christmas - set in the 80s where the kid wants a Nintendo (like the BB gun in a Christmas Story)

emkob.bsky.social•81 days ago

Agreed. It's such nostalgia and is a fun, sweet movie.

existentialcat.bsky.social•81 days ago

Thats a kid whose parents were separating and overcompensated with gifts.

My stupid parents loved each other so I had a coleco vision.

coachgav.bsky.social•81 days ago

My parents separated and we still got shit
