Good idea on paper... Feb 21, 2008
By Jimmy Ray Purser
"zabricab"
Sounds like a good idea right? With the Wii, there are many customizable attachments to add to the controllers for that added touch of realism e.g. Links crossbow, golf clubs, etc...why not boxing gloves?
The problem is that these are basically bag striking gloves with a pouch sewn in and foam inserts. I noticed the following problems that this quick "port" causes;
- The glove fit tight (like striking gloves should) but that means if/when you clinch your fist the gloves will depress one of many controller buttons which of course can do things like turn your Wii off to exiting the game.
- No IR window for the sensors. The glove dramatically reduce the range and accuracy of the controllers due to the damping effect of the gloves outer shell
- No access to any control buttons. Hope you like only jabbing cause accessing that coveted "z" button for the knock punch just ain't gonna happen.
Most of these problems can be fixed with an Xacto knife, but I decided just to sell them on eBay along with the ultra sucky boxing game I bought with it (Showtime Boxing).

Not so Good Dec 25, 2007
By T J A The glove interferes with the IR of the remote and slows down your control of the game. All they have done is take a cheap pair of gloves and cut the padding.
A few minutes with a knife and a sewing machine greatly improved the product, but isnt something you should have to do to make it work.
Without the modifications you constantly have to take the remote back out, which is a cumbersome process. The controls should have been made accessible for the original product.
With the modifications, this is a fun accessory.

not practical Jul 07, 2008
By M J
"momofthree"
Purchased as a Christmas gift for my children to use with Wii boxing game. The gloves were fairly useless. When wearing them, you are unable to press any of the controls on the controllers as they are tucked into the back of the boxing glove ( on the back of your hand). My kids have used them twice ( tops!). don't bother. Boxing game is more fun without them.

Gloves for Wii Sports boxing only Jul 16, 2008
By Tazmanian Devil
"Taz"
If you have a boxing game that requires that you push different buttons for different punches, these gloves and all the other red and black gloves aren't going to help you. You can't reach the controller to push the needed button for say, an uppercut. And, when the match is over and you want a rematch, you have to take off the gloves, pull out the remote to work the menu. Pain in the behind.

What's the point? Dec 26, 2008
By Stephen C. Burmeister The controlers don't fit in the available space? You have to fish the controler wire through a hole....not easy for kids in a rush. The only people that would buy these are the clueless suckers-like me!
