The Wii Boxing Glove: lowered expectations sold separately

While there's a couple of options to help those looking to add an extra dash of authenticity to Wii Golf or Tennis, not to mention that all-purpose foam donut for driving games, those needing some help reconciling the incongruous Wiimote and nunchuck with the act of boxing so far haven't been so fortunate. Thankfully, someone's decided to fill in that questionable gap, releasing the "easy to use" Wii Boxing Glove, which promises to "enhance the joy of playing" for the low, low price of $22. As the image above helpfully illustrates, you simply pop your standard issue controllers into the gloves and start swinging, with the padding providing some sure-to-be-needed protection against your added enthusiasm. Now, if someone would just figure out how to make the Wiimote a little more like a baseball bat, we'd be all set.

Who cares about an actual glove. Note to Nintendo: make a boxing game that uses both wiimotes(one in each hand) and the wii fit board. I predict a huge seller.

the wii is beginning to turn into the iPod with its slew of mostly pointless accessories...

[(Unverified) Posted Feb 6th 2007 8:43PM]

yeah, lets make accessories for our product that isn't available for anyone. shouldn't they be putting their resources into something that makes more sense?

"Now, if someone would just figure out how to make the Wiimote a little more like a baseball bat, we'd be all set." - I can't wait to see the pictures of the Wii-bat lodged into someone's TV when THAT wrist strap breaks!

....
looks like a piece of crap. How about some legit company mods a wiimote into a boxing glove? Now that I would buy, even for the extra money

[CommentSystem Posted Feb 6th 2007 11:24PM]

and this strengthens the label of "gimmick" for the wii.

[(Unverified) Posted Feb 7th 2007 12:38AM]

Before they come out with boxing gloves, we need a decent boxing game for the Wii that properly tracks your movement and hand speed and not rely on gestures

[(Unverified) Posted Feb 7th 2007 8:28AM]

Yep, I'm realizing how much I despise the Wii Sport Boxing game in that it's completely unrealistic and seems to be made for spastic kids who don't mind just twitching with the wiimotes. I want a boxing game that actually works when I punch to the head and the upper-cut is an upper-cut move, not a twist and a lift.

That said, it's still a solid good work out if you move for real anyway, especially since the better at boxing you are the worse you'll do in this game (except for the dodging) meaning you'll need to play a LOT more to win more matches. :)

Love:Hate... thin line I guess.
