Remember back in the days of N64, that Nintendo released a program where if you turned in a Mario Party instruction booklet you got a free glove 'cause some mini games ate away at your palm? I finally lost mine and i wanna new one. Ya know where I can get a new one? (I don't expect to get it from Nintendo, but do any of you remember wut make/model the glove was?)

I remember that.

We never sent away for the gloves, I'm thinking that we should have since we ended up with some hella bad sores on our hands.

I think between myself and my brothers that we wore out 12 N64 controllers and had them replaced under the lifetime warranty.

Eventually they wouldn't give us anymore...

Hello and thank you for contacting Nintendo,

Although we did make that offer back in 2001, we no longer have any of the
gloves in stock. However, we recommend the you not use the palm of the hand
when rotating the control stick, but you can purchase a sports glove if you
still want to rotate the control stick with the palm on the hand.Â

Sincerely,

Nintendo of America Inc.

Back after the release of the original Mario Party for N64, you released a
special that if someone mailed the instruction manual to Nintendo that Nintendo
would ship them a glove (relating to the fast control stick rotating palm
problem)
What make/model was that glove?
No crap they wouldn't offer it anymore, i asked for the type of glove! I feel like a fool now, having worn an excercise glove to play videogames.
