Just a day after rumours surfaced on the Interweb that Nintendo has planned a Zelda-themed title to ship with the Wii Zapper accessory, the firm has today officially announced Link's Crossbow Training for the Nintendo Wii.
Link's Crossbow Training is detailed as an experience where players are dropped into the shoes of the famous adventure series' protagonist on a mission to perfect his marksmanship. Challenges will start with static bulls-eyes before shifting to moving targets and all sorts of enemies.
With the Switch bringing interest back into the realm of motion controls, it seems as good a time as any to dip back into the backlog and retrieve some lucrative nuggets from the one that launched the phenomenon in the first place: the Nintendo Wii.

..........................WHAT !?!?!?!?!
That's beyond the dumbest thing I've ever heard, way to milk a good franchise there Nintendo.
....Link's Crossbow training, Very eloquent.
Another useless accessory -_-'
Who would want crossbow training? Just release time crisis already!!!
could be cool. The zapper is a good idea for upcoming games that'll use the Wii Remote more as a gun anyway. Hopefully the Zelda Crossbow training will be pretty fun. I did enjoy that little training bit in OoT
Wii Play Targets and the Ghost Mansion minigame in Super Paper Mario have always been fun and a great test of skill... however weren't very deep at all.
I expect Link's Crossbow Training to be far superior to those, so it should also bring the good times!
Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles and other full length games that are designed with the Zapper in mind should really kick some ass though.
