Unwieldy peripherals are nothing new to gaming, but now they're being cranked out at such a clip that every mini-game imaginable will eventually get its own accessory retroactively-there's already been a bowling-ball controller made specifically for seven Wii games, including Wii Sports. But do these hunks of plastic heighten the sense of immersion in a game, or merely sacrifice practicality in favor of looks?
The release date has been revealed for the Championship Editions of Cabela’s: The Hunt and Bass Pro Shops.

GPB writes: "A little while back, we reviewed Bass Pro Shops: The Strike on the Xbox 360. While it wasn't the most memorable fishing experience we've ever had, it was an acceptable digital recreation of the sport, complete with a surprisingly responsive peripheral and plenty of options. Now we come to the Nintendo Wii version, and while we're happy that Pirahna Games found a way to make the motion controls work, it's unfortunate that nothing else does. As a result, you'll want to throw The Strike back before you're even close to done with it."
