very interesting. i never knew that existed.

That’s pretty cool. Especially since it’s an original accessory made by Nintendo. I haven’t seen that before either…

Interesting how they could trademark such a common name as “hands free” 😛

I wonder how many were made?

i wonder that as well. it is pretty cool that it was an official Nintendo product. i wonder how you go about pressing start/select and also a+b, since for one you blow and the other you suck.

Hey, that’s a pretty cool find, jojobean!

Someone should make some clones of that and have a contest to find the best hands-free gamer 😀

They could use SNES, Flash or maybe some custom-made games. They could even use ROMs of the contest games that Nintendo has done in the past, like the “Nintendo World Championship”.

BTW, Dan, unlike a copyright, a trademark doesn’t just cover the content of a word or phrase but also the font or other design in which it’s presented.

Just FYI… 😉
