Another third-party Wiimote Blaster hits the scene

The Wiimote blaster love just keeps on comin', as cranking out third-party steering wheels, Wii Sports apparatuses, and full-fledged Link suits apparently isn't good enough. We all know the Zapper holds a dear place in most every gamer's heart, and judging by the variety set to be released for the Wii, accessory manufacturers are keenly aware. The latest Wii gun has popped up at GameStop, and aside from a smallish photograph and "Core Gamer" listed as the developer, we're not too sure about anything else. Of course, there's not too much to understand about how this here device will eventually work, but on or around June 26th, you can plop down your $19.99 and find out once and for all.

Joytech's Sharp Shooter looks like Wii Blaster, but isn't


So while Wii fans wait around for the promised "Zapper Style" Wiimote shell (a.k.a. "The Blaster"), peripherals big shot Joytech has snuck onto the scene with a similar product called the Sharp Shooter. The lack of details on Joytech's site means all we know is that "the Sharp Shooter brings Wii shooting games to life with amazing realism," though how the contraption actually pulls this off is still somewhat of a mystery. No word on price or release dates either, but we can comfort ourselves in knowing that when the Shooter does hit shelves, it will work on "ALL TV's and displays" (emphasis theirs, not ours).
