That blaster is compensating for something.

I just received my Wii HotD handcannon, and I can say that it is totally awesome. But these? I don't need these.

They did the gun design wrong, like so many other Wii guns out there (I've tried a lot of them). No game ever uses the Z button as the trigger, so that's a pretty stupid spot to put it. I hate shooting from the barrel; why do so many Wii guns make this mistake?

The only decent guns I've tried so far are the official Wii Zapper (for rail shooters) and the Nyko Perfect Shot (for off-rail shooters).

@NeoStarr:
The only one that really looks like it was designed right is the Cobalt Flux Dark Ops gun, as it gives you everything that you've already got _without_ throwing the gun into the mix, and then they add in the gun. I've got the Nerf gun, which isn't terrible as far as your average Wii gun goes, but you lose efficient use of all but the B button on the Wiimote. Or to put it in context, you lose five of the eight total buttons on the combo setup, which really limits the number of games that it's actually useful for. And _that_ is probably why the gun designs constantly put the Wiimote in the barrel and the nunchuk in the grip, since you can access all the topside buttons if you've got your hand wrapped around the barrel.

I'll have to make an addition to my house if any more plastic peripherals hit the market.

I can't believe it took this long for official Wii lightsabers to come out :/

Also where's Mace Windu flavour?

@(Zombie) Goldwings: I wonder how hard it is to take those things apart and replace the tube with the appropriate color?

@C22DBlueKnightOne:
That part's probably easier than fixing the totally-not-like-Mace's-hilt look of the hilt.

But seriously, just Anakin and Yoda? If we can't have Mace, the least they could do is give us a legitimate Sith blade.

@Yossarian: That load of Bantha fodder?

Well, it's no Thermal Detonator, but it gets the job done, I guess.
