Well I knew of it but didn't know anyone who actually had one. The Powerglove seemed more practical with actual controls and buttons. And I saw it in The Wizard

But while looking for more history on it I came across the LaserScope[0] which I was not aware of. So I guess we're in the same boat on NES oddball accessories.

- flanbiscuit 4y agoI love The Wizard! I recently re-watched it and it still holds up for me, but a large part of that could be nostalgia. The ending still gets me though. I stopped by the Dinosaurs of Cabazon earlier this year while driving from Palm Springs to LA (part of a larger road trip I took this year). It's so different now, they've painted them really bright colors. I was there 15 years ago and back then they still resembled the ones from The Wizard and Pee Wee's Big Adventure. Was still cool though.
