Hi, This may be a wired question but here goes…. Does anybody know how or if you can connect an Nitendo Power Glove to the Amiga's Parallel Port so it acts like a mouse?? Thanks!! Tom Patrick #72212,1103

Hi, Tom — Dunno if this helps, but in Vol 1, #1 AC's TECH mag was an article "Adapting Mattel's Power Glove to the Amiga" — the Glove is referred to as a Nintendo Power Glove several times in the article. The interface is through one of the mouseports, not parallel port. If this is what you need and you can't locate the particular issue, give me a mailing address and I'll send you a hardcopy of the article. — Ed (In Nawth NH) — [via AP!]

Tom, You might check out Tensor Productions, 280 Mathilda Dr #9, Goleta,CA. Tel.805.685.6245 Fax.805.685.2994. Joseph Shen is the contact person, I talked to him about a year ago and he had a prgm called "Digi-Mice" that worked with the P-Glove. Hope this helps. He also had 2 other utilities that one that utilized Midi input to control the Amiga and the other using video from the "LIVE" frame grabber. CJ —-> on AP
