An extensive discussion on the Mattel Power Glove has been going on in sci.virtual-worlds almost forever; take a look! Latest news is that a lawsuit ended with a new party in control of glove sales, and instead of Nintendo's limited engineering information, there should be a glove for sale with full "high precision location" hardware and software interface specs in about two months. The down side is, the price about tripled, from $70 to $200, per the same posting. (Guess who gets to pay for the lawsuit? Don't you just love lawyers?) Kent, the man from xanth.
