Wii Shooting games and Big Buck Hunter?

Question

Hello Yahoo Wii communiity, I'm in need of some help:

I am a wii owner and have been unimpressed by the shooting games I have. I am looking for something as fun as Big Buck Hunter, which is ultra responsive, accurate, and doesn't have a target reticle on screen at all times.

What I have is Link's Crossbow Training, Umbrella Chronicles, Call of Duty 4, and Metroid prime, and a wii zapper. None of these are nearly as fun to play as a real light gun game (Like Big Buck Hunter or even the original Duck Hunt).

1. I've tweaked my settings all I can, but it seems like the Wii Zapper is just a bit too fast for the target reticle in all these shooting games.
2. The reticle is a bit below where i'm actually aiming in all games...has anybody else experienced that? Have a fix? I'd like to actually aim the gun instead of wave the wand around.
3. Does anybody know of a better accessory than the wii zapper for shooting games?
4. Does anybody know of a better game than the ones I've listed, to recreate a true light gun experience?

Thanks so much for your help all. The shooting aspect of Wii so far has let me down, i'm basically trying to recreate the feel of an "Arcade Shooter" in my living room, something as fun and responsive as a game like Big Buck Hunter (though I don't care what I"m actually shooting at, just need something responsive).

Thanks again for your help!

I am an avid shooter genre fan and the Wii has added a really great 'arcade' experience to my in-home gaming.



I too have Umbrella Chronicles, Link & Zelda, and House of the Dead 2,3,4 the Wii Zapper, and a pistol gun as well.



The Zapper's trigger is very sensitive, but comes in handy when facing an onslaught of enemies to deal with. It is so easy to shoot that you can actually do it repeatedly almost in a continuous fire.



But, if you are looking for something with a little more force needed to shoot, then go with the pistol accessory. It is heavier, smaller, and the trigger needs to be pressed down a little farther for it to shoot, so it isn't as sensitive. Each of them has its own advantages and disadvantages, but they are useful in different situations.



If you want to get back to the 'old skool' gaming experience I would suggest picking up House of the Dead 2,3 and even the new one that came out a few months ago. They are all pretty great quality games for arcade shooting on the Wii.

For a better shell { Like the Wii Zapper} you should try the Perfect Shot, Link Below. It has great reviews ank can work with games with the nunchuk as well.



As well setting up the Zapper to be more accurate, Its not going to be perfect the zapper but try moving a bit away from the T.V



Also some games that are Light Gun Shooters that i personally enjoyed are



Target:Terror ---VideoGameCritic.net gave this game a B Rating.



Ghost Squad --- You play as the Ghost Squad which to me seems like a version of the Swat Team for America. IGN gave it a 7.5/10



The House of Dead 2,3 also the House of Dead:Overkill --- These are great games but be warned. Overkill has the record for most cuss words in a game.



Also some Light Gun Shooters that are coming up that should be and look really great are



Dead Space:Extraction --- Im pretty sure the release date is September 28 of this year



and lastly



Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles -- coming out on November 17 of this year.



Look into one of these game my personal Light Favorite Shooter is Ghost Squad just becasue everytime you beat it you get a new gun to use in the missions.

I'm not much of a shooting game fan or am I a hunter but I love "Big buck hunter pro." The problem is the gun keeps breaking and I have to buy the game all over again. I can't really afford to do that anymore. How do I get just the gun? No GameStops have any.
