$50 Duck Hunt, Anyone?

September 11th, 2007

Does it strike anyone else as weird that Nintendo is basically re-releasing the NES zapper for the Wii?  I mean, sure, it sounds interesting… but it would be very difficult to control a complex game with just the Wiimote, since you wouldn’t have enough hands for the zapper/nunchuk combo.  And if it’s just for simple games, are we really going to want to pay for this?

    The Zapper is $20 and will come with “Link’s Crossbow Training”. The zapper holds absolutely no interest for me… I’d consider maybe $5-$10 for Link’s Crossbow training though if it was sort of an interesting variation on Duck Hunt.

    How do you not have enough hands for that? One index finger would go on the B trigger and the thumb of the same figure would go atop the wiimote to press various buttons. The other hand would go at the rear of the zapper and use the nunchuck. It seems so simple, what am I missing? You shouldn’t even have to use your middle hand.
