Im deffinatly going to buy one also because you get links crossbow training.

If it was just £20 for the zapper on its own i probably wouldnt buy it.

Wow is that 20 pounds? That translates to $40 CAD/US lol. I'll get it if they create more games that utilize it, also how do you guys find the 'Wii Light Gun', I like the look.

Well, reviews say that it actually hinders the experience in RE:UC, so I wouldn't buy it for that reason. However, 20 bucks seems like a good deal fro Link's Crossbow Training, regardless of what piece of plastic it comes with.

It looks cool, but I like the Zapper better.

The Wii Zapper and gun attachments make no sense. The Wiimote does not function like a true light gun. It's a mouse, a cursor you move around. It would be like attaching a plastic gun shell to your mouse if you were playing something like Umbrella Chronicles on your computer. Utterly pointless and unneccasary.

I have Umbrella Chornicles, a lot of fun and challenging. But I held up my Wiimote like a gun to see what it would be like and as expected it's completely nuts to try to do so b/c you are looking at yoru on-screen cursor not lining your sight down the barrel of your gun/wiimote like a true light gun game. I could see the Wii Zapper helping balance your reticule for a more accurate shot though since you hold it with two hands.

no, unless you want links crossbow training

all the reviews ive read says the zapper hinders your ability to play well. and i just bought re:uc today, and i can tell you that the zapper really would cause the game to be unnecessarily harder (in reloading and knifing, which u do a lot)

Personally I don't think it's necessary, considering the wiimote is already a lot like a gun. Whatever floats your boat though.

buy a wii

No. Invest the $20 in a game worth playing / having like Z&W or something. Yes I know you get Links Crossbow training with it... but still.
