I more or less agree, but then I never assumed it would be some miracle new gun controller. I rather assumed it would be a cheap plastic shell that supports a few games that will go largely unused, like any other light gun peripheral, except in this case it will be cheaper and less guilt inducing than going out and buying a light gun. For 20 bucks you get a shell and a fun game. Every once and a while a lightgun game will come out, and if you want you can pull it out. If it were a 50 dollar light gun then I would smell failure, and bad decisions. But since it's 20 dollars for a plastic piece and a game, I will actually get one.
Which as far as marketing goes is rather brilliant. I didn't care about RE:UC, but since I'm getting the zapper....maybe I will get it...Funny how that works. After you have a peripheral your more likely to buy a game that uses it. Hell, they may even be doing to specifically try to boost RE:UC in order to win Capcom over, a longshot but if they can make money to secure future exclusives it sure beats spending money to get exclusives.
