Glow Gaming to release glow-in-the-dark controllers

Glow Gaming

If you’re still playing your old school PS2, Xbox, or GameCube, you probably need a way to spice it up a little.  A company called Glow Gaming is coming out with glow-in-the-dark controllers for those systems in time for the holiday season.  The glowing “charge” will last users for about 30 minutes in the dark.  Additionally, controllers have a few other features that the company is touting - including longer data cables for connecting them to the console, and a soft-touch “ivory” feel.

According to the company, there are plans for next-gen console (Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, PS3) versions as well.

Update: The units will cost about $20 and according to the company are “coming soon to a retailer near you!”

    Yes. These new glow controllers are in Besy buy and Rogers Video Canada. I’m getting mine next week, I had to order it online from Canada. Not sure when the US will have them, I checked with a Gamestop rep they are not sure.

    I saw these on Electric Playground, Vic and Tommy reviewed them gave them a good recommendation, the glowing effect was awesome. I’m asking Santa for one. ;)
