Chad's Crappy Corner and another gadget for his theme for March, cheap gaming gadgets.


For his last 'cheap gaming gadgets' spot (Chad's theme for March) Chad picked two. The 1st is the CTA Digital Controller Glove for Wii. Here's what Amazon says: Get a grip, with the Controller Glove for Wii. This multi functional glove will assure that you never lose the handling of your remote control while providing ultimate comfort. The backside of the glove is made of a ribbed, elastic spandex material to fit hands of all sizes while allowing ventilation so your hands do not perspire. The Velcro adjustable strap in the back, above the wrist, assures that the glove is tightly fit. The bottom palm portion is made of soft leather that allows a more secure grip on the controller. Not only are these gloves ideal or limited to usage with the Wii, they are also great for recreational activities like bike riding, weight lifting, baseball batting and anything else that requires a firm and secure grip.

And here's what Amazon said about Chad's second item, Gaming Computer Glasses.
How they work: These classic composite frames are outfitted with state of the art yellow tinted lenses that counterbalance the bothersome and harmful blue light that is emitted from the many technological devices we use throughout our day. Because yellow and blue are opposite each other on the color spectrum, these yellow lenses successfully work to protect your eyes from this type of bothersome light. These ultra lightweight and flexible plastic frames with plastic lenses can be worn comfortably for all face shapes and with or without prescription glasses underneath. These impact resistant designer gaming glasses are built for full and complete protection against the eye straining elements and are equipped with wrap-around side shields as well for 360 degree safety. MSRP: $14.99

And Chad's take? Chad liked the gloves and said he thought would work well to keep things from slip out of your hands. Also at under $4, it's not much of an investment, so he recommends them if you need slip-proof gloves. But be aware, that they seem to only come in one-size-fits-all. Chad said he has average sized hands, but that gloves felt tight. He wasn't sure if they would feel more comfortable after wearing them for a while. And be sure to watch the video, or at least look at the photo to see what these gloves look like. They do not cover your fingers as you will be using them to play video games. The computer glasses Chad was less enthralled with. You can see they're yellow in the picture, but Chad reminded us several times that everything you see is “really, VERY yellow!”. In the video you can get an idea when Chad holds them in front of the camera lens. Yes, everything is bring yellow. They can be worn over regular eye wear and Chad pointed out that they seemed well made with protective side panels and eye-guard at the top. But at $15 Chad didn't think he could stand that much yellow.
