While wandering around the Sands hall at CES today, I bumped into a Chinese company called Shenzhen Koonhome Technology, who were showing off some Wii accessories. The most quirky was the Wii Boxing Gloves.

Basically, they’re a pair of lightweight gloves, which you strap onto your hands for playing, well, Wii boxing. They’re not controllers, mind – you still have to hold the Wiimote and nunchuk. But the idea is they get you more in the mood.

  • Looks like it would be painful to hold onto the wiimote & nunchuk while wearing those. Need gloves that hold the controls plus have resistance bands running around your back so you can get a real workout.
