Thanks for everyone who voted. Go go gadget phone will become a reality once I buy a Power Glove off eBay. For some reason people are bidding on it like crazy and it’s more than what I am willing to pay for. I’ll be sure to post a work blog on the creation of the awesomeness of the go go gadget power phone!
While my pointless project of the year is on hold. I’m working on custom building a arcade fight stick for my PS3. Why buy when you can build? Since Street Fighter 4 was released last week, I purchased a copy. Using the controller to play it is just plain terrible so the only solution left is to get a fight stick. Everyone has been raving about the Mad Catz SF4 Tournament Edition stick but it’s $150. Not willing to spend that much I decided to build one piggy back off the PS3 controller to make a wireless fight stick. I placed an order for the buttons and joystick, hopefully I’ll receive them soon! So exciting!
I’ve been thinking about this for a while and it’s really pointless but it could be fun. Without further delay…I present to you my pointless project of the year!
Power Glove Go Go Gadget Hands free Handset
Sexy Star Trek Communicator Handset
I bet you’re thinking right now. Anyways, let me elaborate on this a little bit. First, the Power Glove is integrating with an ordinary bluetooth headset thus creating the Inspector Gadget style phone. Since it is bluetooth powered, you can pair it with any modern cellphone. Why would you want this? Because the Power Glove was the rage when it was first released in ’89, every kid living on your block wants this. Heck, even your grandmother who doesn’t know anything about video game wants one. You know it’s awesome when your Power Glove starts ringing.
Just look at how serious that guy is with his Power Glove on. IT COULD BE YOU! Me actually because this is my project. It make him look like he is going on a top secret mission with a 0.001% chance of returning. Chicks dig that. If that doesn’t convince you, perhaps this video might.
Second, the Star Trek communicator handset. Taking the replica communicator and integrate a bluetooth headset into it, thus creating a sexy communicator for the modern world. The communicator itself comes with 9 original phrases from the TV show!
“Enterprise, this is Kirk.” (Captain Kirk)
“Spock here, Captain.” (Spock)
“Bridge here, Captain.”
“Transporter room ready to beam up.”
“Bridge, this is the captain.” (Captain Kirk)
“Enterprise to Mr. Spock.”
“Captain, shall I beam down an armed party?” (Spock, plays during call-back mode only)
“Scotty here, Captain.” (Scotty)
Entertainment Earth exclusive bonus phrase! “Your signal is very weak; can you turn up your gain?” (Spock)
Not sure if the last phrase is true but apparently you can only get it if you ordered through Entertainment Earth. Star Trek is making a come back, a new movie is coming out in May. Who doesn’t dream of becoming the sexy Captain Kirk? No women can resist Cpt. Kirk, rrraaarrrrrr…. Just imagine me flipping open my communicator and say….
Hopefully after reading through my ideas have change the way you see it. So I ask you, the reader, which idea would you like me to create?
