 The player is to wear these gloves while playing (although it is also common practice to play without the gloves, though this can scrape the knuckles).When an on-screen enemy makes an attack on the player, a punch pad will swing out on its hinge at a smooth pace, and upon reaching full extension at 90 degrees, the LEDs light up red.The pad stays lit for a short time, and then the pad returns inside the cabinet to rest.
