Wiimote marries the real PowerGlove

Remember the PowerGlove of old? That piece of gaming peripheral was one of the biggest flops ever despite boasting a whole world of promise. It had poor tracking, limited cable length, and poorly programmed games that made it more of a gimmick than anything else. A Japanese dude decided that the concept was way ahead of its time, and now is the right moment to reap it. He has gutted the standard control pad of the PowerGlove and replaced it with a Wiimote, while the actuators are hooked onto the fingers of the glove which are subsequently wired to the buttons on the controller. This DIY project certainly puts the power into a PowerGlove!
