Wired's Chris Kohler reviews the Wii Zapper and writes that "the Zapper actually makes Wii's shooting games less fun." Here's the conclusion in his review:
"The problem is that while Nintendo promises the Zapper will 'steady your hand and improve your aim,' it actually has the opposite effect. The Wiimote's basic pointer technology lends itself especially well to shooting games, and the Wii Zapper improves nothing. In fact, hauling a heavier, gun-shaped plastic contraption around with both hands only weighs you down and makes it harder to hold your aim steady.
There's really no compelling reason to turn the Wiimote into a light gun -- the standard remote works better without the accessory. Held in one hand, the Wiimote lets you blow away targets with pinpoint accuracy using very subtle, small wrist movements."

Now that Resident Evil 3 remake is less than a month away, here's a look back at the other times Capcom reimagined the 1999 classic game.
Numbered entries aside, there have been a whole host of other Resident Evil games, across multiple platforms. Here are some you might have missed.
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.
Well yes and no. Wii Zapper for Ghost Squad awesome. Wii Zapper for RE:UC bad. Wii Zapper for Links Crossbow Training good. Umm that's it so far right 3 light gun games. Not bad 2/3 work great with the Wii Zapper. Haven't tried it yet with MOH2 though.
how do people aim with it? its too sensitive
There's only one real way to play wii games and that's having the wiimote sticking out of your pants while you pretend to ejaculate on the the tv. I'll leave the nunchuk up to your imagination.
why is that.. cause its not hardcore enough. it dont come with real bullets so some clown can go shoot up a mall....the wii will win no matter what. and i have the zapper and it works well
shift over to the xbox360 triggers to feel the realism
