While "Wii Zapper" just doesn't sound right, it looks like Nintendo has an attachement for the Wii that holds both the remote and analog stick in a gun configuration. Gamespot is reporting that Nintendo is showing off this device at their booth and calling it the "Zapper" - in apparent homage to the old NES light gun. Can R.O.B. be far behind? C'mon Nintendo, bring back R.O.B.! Check out the Gamespot article here for more details and join with me in hoping that everyone's favorite little unemployed Robotic Operating Buddy can find work again!
Just to be perfectly clear, Nintendo is showing off a light gun form factor for the Wii that would hold the standard Wii controls. They have said absolutley NOTHING about bringing R.O.B. back. The R.O.B. thing is just part of my twisted thinking.
