The Wii Zapper is coming on November 19 with an MSRP of USD $19.99 - complete with a pack-in game set in the Zelda universe, Link’s Crossbow Training. That’s right - only Nintendo could release a gun peripheral for their console, call it a Zapper, and include a game that doesn’t involve guns.

I’m more excited for the third-party offerings - Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 will feature a Wii-exclusive Arcade Mode that lets even the most hackish noob pick up and play the game with the Zapper, Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles is built from the ground up for cooperative Zapper action, and Sega’s Ghost Squad aims to bring the arcade shooter experience home for the first time in donkey’s years.
