Nintendo introduced the Wii Zapper device in 2007, which is an elongated gun that the both the Wii Remote and Nunchuck slide into. The gun comes with a free Link’s Crossbow game and works with all the shooters out there, including Sega’s House of the Dead 2 and 3 Returns, Ghost Squad, Medal of Honor Heroes 2 and Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles.
I’ve always been a fan of arcade lightgun games and Wii is a system that was built perfectly for these target-shooting games. While there’s not much depth in these shooters, they’re fun to play with a friend. The Zapper makes targeting enemies much easier and the gun shape better replicates the arcade experience—since any of these lightgun games can be played with the traditional Remote.
