Forums - Gaming Discussion - Link Crossbow Training game shipping with the Wii Zapper.

From joystiq...

Nintendo has officially confirmed Link's Crossbow Training, a pack-in title, to be bundled with the Wii Zapper, which hits retail November 19th for $19.99. As rumored earlier today, LCT is a sort of minigame spinoff that's set in "a world in the style of" Twilight Princess and features a series of crossbow training exercises, from stationary target practice to enemy combat. In other words, it's an archery tech demo ... for a gun peripheral. (Note: "gun peripheral" refers to a plastic mold that houses the Wiimote and Nunchuk.)

 

So guys... I wasn't goin to buy the Wii Zapper when it came out but this extra game is making me slightly more tempted to buy it...your thoughts guys...

Lame.



 

 

I just can't get into the Wii zapper since you can't aim it by looking down a sight on it. There always needs to be some sort of reticule on the game screen. And because of that, I see no point in the accessory. Not even if a cheesy Zelda-based game is included with it.



-Manella: Yeah... sux0rz! I hate missing out on food...
-Maya: Nick... what does "Sucksores" mean?
-Phoenix: No idea...

But Link never uses a crossbow!

Oh right, maybe that's why he needs training. =P



Yeah, the Zapper is a definite gimmick...and from IGN impressions, it doesn't make the gameplay feel any better...it's neither better nor worse using the Zapper.

But...$20 for the accessory and a Zelda-themed game...why the hell not.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

He uses new weapons in every new Zelda title.  Why does this have to be a historically used weapon?
