Does anyone know when the Wii Zapper is available to buy on it's own in the UK? And not part of a bundle with Link's (Pointless) Crossbow Training...

http://www.game.co.uk/Wii/Hardware/A...Wii-Light-Gun/
I think the best one is the Nyko perfect shot though, you might be able to order it off here, because it's not here yet:
http://www.amazon.com/Nyko-87030-Wii.../dp/B000X2RKOO

That looks really cool, too, hope this helped, l8r!

I read about the Nyko Perfect Shot in last months n-Revolution mag.... And it looks very nice.... But again not available in the UK atm...

I have a friends who gonna lend me the Wii Zapper to try it out.... If I don't like the feel of it, I'll get myself the Nyko Perfect Shot...

Hopefully they'll both be available soon... With Ghost Squad here (good game btw) and MOH:H2 on the way, a decent gun mount is a must....

The Nyko perfect shot is really good. You can get it from e-bay for £10.

I got a joytech frame for about 7 odd quid, i want another one, i'm just being patient about that nyko one though, you got a date for the Nyko release in the UK, i think if your desperate you could get it off Amazon.

Edit: Like spinty said, ebay too, i forgot about ebay.

Why don't you just get it with Link's crossbow training? It's not much money AND you get a game.

Why are you all wanting to get it without the game? It's practically free, it's the Zapper and it's advanced technology *rolls eyes* that's expensive.

I'm not sure the Wii Zapper is advanced technology.... It's a plastic shell with a trigger mechanism...

Also, I have 4 wiimotes, and I would like potentially upto 4 Zappers.... I don't want 4 copies of a game I have no interest in.... So quit with the "Just buy it with the game" nonsense...

it won't cost much less without LCT... just buy it bundled with the game.

i know you'll like LCT, but you don't have to admit it. and if you PM me how how much you actually like LCT i won't tell anyone!

i really like LCT.

Here check this out:

http://www.gameseek.co.uk/pd/Nintend...rfect-Shot-Gun

They're selling the NYKO perfect shot for 13 quid, and LCT is 20.
You'll end up spending 9 quid more, but it'll be worth it, it's quality gear, persoanlly i'd get 2 NYKO's and 2 other brands, it's nice having a little variety.

walks over to the wii, look's at his selecting of gun frames, picks up the NYKO perfect shot and says, "mom, I'll be back"!

I don't know if you'll be able to get it for much cheaper, as I was under the impression the game was basically thrown in. I bought two shells about a month or so ago, and gave the second game to my parents.

If you really wanted to, just buy one, and a sheet of plexi. Trace the edges of the gun onto the plexi, and cut two side panels out. Then either get a piece of plastic dowel (round piece of plastic already cut) or cut out another small strip of plexi, and glue the two pieces together using the dowel or plastic strip as spacing for the Wiimote.

I'd suggest buying the shells with the extra games though

It's an odd way of getting a full set of mote's.... And it is an interesting idea, but I'm not sure I could be bothered with the whole selling on business... Also who's gonna want LCT without the zapper?...
