Product Description

With the Wii Zapper, your game shooting experience is guarenteed to take on a whole other dimension. Your Wii remote and nunchuck fit snugly into the Zapper, still working as well as before, only now in a shape that, when simulating the use of a weapon such as a gun or bow, allows for a steadier hand that is much less likely to get tired. Included with the Zapper is Link's Crossbow Training for the Wii, a clever and engaging shooting game set in the world of Twilight Princess that includes 27 different levels, several different game modes and multiplayer capability up to four people. Link's Crossbow Training is ESRB Rated T for Teen.

The Wii Zapper is a gun peripheral that allows the user to insert a Wii Remote and Nunchuk, both sold separately, into either end and play a compatible game. The control stick on the Nunchuk controls player movement (on stages that allow player movement), while aiming the Wii Zapper moves the targeting reticule on the screen. The Zapper comes with Link's Crossbow Training, which helps to familiarize the player with the Zapper in a shooting gallery style game. Link's Crossbow Training contains three game styles: target shooting, defender and ranger.

Features:

• Target Shooting: In target-shooting rounds, players shoot bull's-eyes as they pop up on the screen. In early stages, targets are stationary. As the game difficulty increases in later levels, the targets move. Hitting the center of the bull's-eye nets more points, and hitting targets in succession without missing earns combo multipliers. Link can aim anywhere on the screen.
• Defender: In defender rounds, players remain stationary but can look and aim in all directions by aiming off screen. Hordes of enemies assault Link, and he must fight them off. These battles have a great deal of variety, from fighting off skeletons in a desert to defending a wagon from boar-riding Bokoblins.
• Ranger: In ranger rounds, players can move throughout the level using the control stick and aim anywhere they want by aiming the Wii Zapper wherever they want to look. In these missions, Link storms enemy encampments, fights his way through a forest and seeks out his foes while exploring the environments.
• The Wii Remote and Nunchuk are sold separately

Customer Reviews

Good game, so-so accessory
This review isn't easy, as you get a good and bad in one box. On one hand, Link's crossbow training is a ton of fun. After Wii sports, this was actually an enjoyable party game, and something that my wife picked up quickly, and she isn't exactly one for video gaming. With that said though, the zapper itself isn't something that is totally necessary. I found it easier and a bit more accurate to just keep the nunchuck and remote out, but on the flip side, for a more 'authentic' rail shooting experience, the zapper is something that you'll want to keep and use. I'd still buy this over again for Link's Crossbow training alone, hopefully Nintendo will expand on it as a mini game come the next title in the Zelda series.

Surprisingly I Had Fun w/This!
I bought this for a gift for my boyfriend's son and was pleasantly surprised with the game that came with it. We all tried it out and I became pretty competitive (But of course was no match for my police officer boyfriend who blew us all out of the water with his skills!!) Nonetheless, I actually had fun with this and am contemplating getting one for my Wii system! I will say that my controller seemed to have the battery life sucked out of it a lot quicker though...which didn't make that much sense to me, but that's the only thing I noticed. For $20, this really offers a lot!!

A Much for the WII
I receive this from amazon and tried it right away. It is a blast. If you love duck hunt like I did with the first nintendo. Then you will love this. I even had to take the gun away from my mom she love it so much. This will be another fun game to play with family and friend.
