Nintendo today at E3 dropped a couple new hardware accessories for the popular Wii, including a steering wheel for Mario Cart, and a new Zapper. For those who might be too young to recall, the original NES Action System shipped with the original Zapper, which you used for Duck Hunt, and that’s about it. But Duck Hunt was great fun, and the Zapper became iconic.
We’re hoping that now that your virtual gun can have motion sensing that many of the popular arcade shooters of the last decade can hit the Wii. House of the Dead with motion sensing? Sign us up. What we’re really hoping for is a new, 2007 version of Duck Hunt, wherein we can finally shoot that damned dog who snickers at us for missing. I hate that dog.

Looks to me like this might make a good controller for Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition. Anyone who has the game care to comment?
Probably not RE4:Wii, but RE: Umbrella Chronicles is supposed to utilize the Zapper. It’d probably too hard to move around with the wiimote up on top of the thing.
thanks for listenig me kisses mari
