I just bought the Wii Zapper thingy with Link’s Crossbow Training yesterday. It’s okay, I guess, but I find the Zapper is far too small! I do have big, meaty hands, but they’re not abnormally huge or anything. The Zapper is fitted for small hands and both my wife and I got very tired and achey after using the Zapper for no more than 20 minutes. I’m glad the thing was only $25 because that’s a fair price to pay for something I won’t get more than 5 hours of usage out of over its lifespan.

Wow, the Wii Zapper Gun. Bring back nostalgic memories as Nintendo repackages another old novelty to resell for the MILLIONTH time!
Honestly, they’ve been doing this for years (not to say it’s bad, cause it’s not bad…in moderation). The Gameboy Color gave them a chance to resell NES games, the Gameboy Advance gave them a chance to resell SNES games, and the DS…yup, N64 games. And you know the Virtual Arcade on the Wii? Yup, have a look.
Nintendo, coming up with “innovations” since the Virtual Boy.

The Wii Zapper works great for me. It might take a while to get used to but once you get used to it, you’ll enjoy it.

Hey Chris,

This isnt relevant to the Wii zapper, but I thought Ponzi might find this fun to play. I found a flash version of “Duck Hunt” and it’s very easy to play. http://www.cyberiapc.com/flashgames/duckhunt.htm

Chris,
If you look at the Duck Hunt page in Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duck_Hunt), it says that one of the minigames in the game Wii Play has a similar style to Duck Hunt. In the minigame, you can shoot ducks and flying disks, and some more things.
If you go online with the Internet Channel on the Wii and Google search Duck Hunt, you can play a online flash version of Duck Hunt that you can play on the Wii.

Well i must warn you my light gun impressions are well closer to a bomb going off than an actual gun but then again iam just horrible at it.

Well I personal have just obtained a Wii and if i may say so myself I’ am / was very thrilled. I can honestly say that iam addicted to the Wii as much as it can be known to be addicted to a particular game console. Oh and if i may make a suggestion, Mario Galaxy is pure enjoyment.

The Wii to me is one of those things that you are willing to ignore the fact that the every other console may have a slight one up on it. I know this for a fact. The Wii to me is the last light as far as inovative gaming in todays world. Maybe thats me being alittle bit too poetic but thats my thoughts on the matter.

I don’t have a Zapper but I recently got myself Zapper-like Blaster Gun from Core Gamer. I have been hooked to it and been playing Medal of Honour: Heroes 2. I recommend, you try the game.
