The latest issue of Nintendo Power reveals the first images of Nintendo's pack-in Wii Zapper game, Link's crossbow Training. The hooded protagonist is seen picking off both enemies and targets in the world of Hyrule.
The scan isn't too large (click the thumbnail to enlarge), so details are that much harder to pick out. However, you'll first notice that the camera is set behind Link at a Resident Evil 4-style over the shoulder angle, rather than in a third person perspective, and that the game looks to use the same graphics engine as The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
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.

Is it me or do I sense that the Wii is the only other newsworthy console now that Halo 3 has launched?
Nintendo is very smart. They knew no one would pay that much for a piece of plastic so they bundled it with a small Link/Zelda game.
THIS GAME IS THE WII'S HALO KILLER
