So, who's interested in this game? It's bundled with the Wii Zapper and will have 27 levels to play through. What more could you want? You get to be Link, and shoot things with arrows until they die. Go violence!
Begin discussion.

Hey, if it's free, I take it. That said, I still have to get a Wii to start with, but that's another issue.

I can't say I'm getting all drooly over this game. While just destroying things (in games, people!) has proven fun on multitple occasions, this just doen'st sound that exciting. My main problem is that for as far as I can see, they've reused everything from TP. Nothing seems new, while I don't think it would've been that hard if they would've gone the extra "mile" and also added stuff that wasn't finished for TP (like enemy models). Or maybe even add a few surprise enemies like maybe a TP style 3D Goriya (now that would've been a surprise).

I would've even been happy if I would've been allowed to shoot Midna!

That said, you use a crossbow in the game. And while I think Link should stick to the regular bow in the action-adventure games, having a crossbow (felt in love with them because of Warcraft 2. Die abominations called Warcraft 3 and World of Warcraft) in this game doesn't hurt.

Or actually, it does.

The enemies that is.

I don't like the zelda franchise being milked the way Mario is. If the games a good quality, I have now problem. However if this gos like mario party does and spawns 8 plus bad quality games, I'll be pissed.

All it's supposed to be is just a small bundled game with the zapper, kinda like Wii Sports. I doubt that they are going to make it a series or something.

Yeah, it really only sounds like a game that's just been designed for fun and to show off a new Wii accessory. It's nothing particularly epic. And I doubt it would spawn a whole series of games, because it'd just be the same basic game over and over again. But then again, so is Mario Party...
What, you expect me to say something witty?

I want to get this game, it sounds like loads of fun, does anyone know when its coming out? I forgot...

Twilight Wolf

Sometime this month, I believe.  I'm going to keep an eye out for it in stores.

Hi no Seijin

November 19.

And the game seems kind of "meh" for me.

Still, for $20 bucks you get the zapper that will be essential for many games to come, and a Zelda game. Need I say more?

Hi no Seijin

I think it's safe to assume that the zapper will be for mostly FPS games, and I don't really like FPS.  Really, the only time I would play a FPS is if I'm hanging out with my friends.

Isn't this going to be one of the online games? I heard about it somewhere I think, might of read it wrong though.

What would be the point? It's just a smaller version of Wii Play basically, with one game...
