Everlast Boxing Glove Nintendo Wii Accessory

 

If I had one complaint while playing the original sports accessories games for the Wii, it would be that the golf game is not realistic as there is no way I would ever shoot anywhere close to par in real life. My second complaint would be that playing the boxing game with a nunchuk and controller is too unbalanced. Somebody at Nintendo listened to my silent thoughts as they have introduced the Everlast Boxing Glove Nintendo Wii Accessory. The nunchuk and controller are still used, but now they are strapped into the back of officially licensed Everlast boxing gloves. This new design is not only more realistic and offers a better workout but safer. When you really get a good battle going, the sweat from the hands makes it only a matter of time before the nunchuk goes flying across the room. Not only is your TV cracked but the computer opponent punches you while you’re down…literally!

The boxing gloves are lightweight at under a pound, although the controller and nunchuk will add to that weight while playing. The gloves come in a variety of colors including black, red and blue. The gloves can be used with the original Wii Sports pack boxing as well as for Wii Fitness.

Some complaints of the gloves are that the sensor does not always read well. This seems to be a problem with a lot of the sports games that require intense action. Another complaint is that the one size fits most sizing may not be comfortable for those with larger hands. Priced at around $30, it may not be a bad buy for the kids, half the time they aren’t sure whether they are getting punched or not anyway.
