    WeeP5 Gun Is As Real As Wii Zappers Get

    Hack-A-Day builder TheOreos took a realistic toy version of the Heckler & Koch MP5 and outfitted it with a Wiimote, ending up with the cleverly named and scandalously realistic WeeP5 you see before you. [Hack-A-Day]

    Wii Zapper Hands On (Verdict: Shoot From the Hip)

    Nintendo's gun peripheral has a slot for your Wiimote, and comes with Link's Crossbow training. It's no duck hunt, but it's really fun. The Good: High build quality, battery-less design, fairly accurate, Tommy-gun design of the Wii Zapper makes me feel like Wii Capone. Inexpensive, since it doesn't introduce electrics, depending on the Wiimote's exisiting buttons. Fun would be an understatement. More »

    Parents Think Wii Zapper Might As Well Come With an NRA Application

    NJ.com, your source for "everything Jersey" asked people what they thought of the "gun-like" Wii Zapper in their weekly Question of the, um, Week segment. The responses poured in and they were extremely negative.

    Hands-on Wii Zapper Assembly Video

    Ashcraft and Crecente from Kotaku got a hands-on demonstration with the Wii Zapper. The video shows how you put the thing together—a combination of the Nunchuck and the Wiimote—but it also shows Ashcraft demonstrationg his acting chops. The Zapper is actually kind of uncomfortable, seeing as the two grips that you put your hands on are a bit close. It's like holding a Tommy gun, except possibly even more awkward. What's also weird is that the trigger was in the front, and not the back as you'd expect. [Kotaku]

    Wii Zapper Coming May 1st

    Nintendo is bringing its Zapper days back. The folks at Gamestop have just added the Wii Blaster to their Wii arsenal, claiming it'll ship on the 1st of May for $20. Couple it with a few Virtual Console games like Hogan's Alley, Gumshoe, or Duck Hunt and it's 8-bit nirvana all over again. Now all I have to do is, er, find a Wii. More »
