Anyone pick either of those up yet? i see zidart already asked about the RE game :] Also, for GH3 have they been able to work out if they'll be doing song updates or anything on the wii? i know it was planned and in an interview on gamestop they had said they were trying to work with nintendo to do something similar to the planned updates for 360 and ps3... but i haven't heard anything else about it. Anyone know?

EDIT: a nintendo rep came into my store the other day and showed us the Wii Zapper. i definitely want to get it, even more so than previously. i mean, for 25 bucks it's not bad for a peripheral AND a game. It actually feels really sturdy and the rep said that when he played with it it actually helped to steady his aim so it might be nice to play through umbrella chronicles with it. i realized that he's the NINTENDO REP so of course he'd want to hype the products, but holding it myself i'd tend to believe him :]

Just picked up my wii zapper and umbrella cronicles yesterday! and WOW. both amazing. at first i tohught the wii zapper looked wierd, but it just feels right. the weight distribution is great and overall it feels very natural.

Links Crossbow trainging, wasn't amazing but is fun for a few hours and has alot of levels and medals to get, also can be played multiplayer (not online) which looks like fun, its mostly just shoot bad guys or shoot targets, there are a few levels were you get to run around and shoot stuff, which is good.

RE: UC amazing! its very hard though, im playing on easy and it can get frustrating. the game is smooth, has a TON of secrets and explodable objects with hidden facts and information about the series, the weapons are upgradeable and it has something like 20 hours of gameplay, which is insane for a shooter, not to mention the multiplayer which also looks like a load of fun. overall both in my opinion are a MUST get.

the only downfall with the wii zappers configuarion and the way the game is played in RE:UC is you can't dual weild the zappers, you need two hands to change weapons and pick up items. oh well.
