WOW, PB, two great ones. I don't know if I recall the second one but I sure do the first one. That was huge back then :o Shame it faded out so quickly however. I remember seeing it at the stores, I never got one however. Gosh, just thinking about it and knowing I was around then makes Me proud :)

I'll be posting My special Nintendo showcase very soon, just a heads up ;)

I don't really remember that Nintendo Power commercial, but I do remember that song. I never had the Power Glove but my neighbor did. He also had the mat you could use for games like Track and Field. I don't really remember using the glove, but the mat was like ROBBIE, not great. After a while we'd just kneel on the matt and use our hands to run/jump, etc.

I see and that's cool, I think I either forgot about the mat or never knew about it :?

Yeah, my buddy had the mat. We didn't get much use out of it. Nintendo Power, though. Those magazines were awesome. I still have a few. My buddy had a subscription to those and he'd occasionally let me have some of them. They were actually pretty handy and awesome to read. Especially back in the days of no internet and it was pretty much the only way.

Cool Acid. Yeah, I really still prefer that way compared to the we/net/digital age.
