Probing unsolved mysteries (tangentially related to video games) that nobody else dares (or cares) to investigate. We try to answer questions like who the voiced Colossus epic roar in Konami's X-Men arcade game, why Wikipedia credits completely unrelated people as the creators of the Power Glove and more. Join us on an epic goose chase involving interviews with game designers, voice actors and other guests who are way too important for the stupid questions we ask them.

Adam looks up the patents for the "optical flex sensor" and the "data glove" - the core technology behind the power glove, and in so doing finds several key people who could be called the rightful creator of the power glove, but none of those names were Samuel Cooper Davis. This gives the back story to how it came to be, it's many iterations, and who was responsible for bringing it about.
