Wii Sniper Rifle Gun Released

Accessories maker CTA Digital introduced its Sniper Rifle Gun for Wii, complete with removable stock and barrel, magazine tube, sniper scope, and stand. While the sniper scope is for cosmetic appeal and "not gaming accuracy", the accessory does incorporate the Wiimote and Wii Motion Plus to get the job done.

That's all I got. That's all I need.

Wikipedia says the longest successful sniper kill was over 1.5 miles...I wonder what the range of this thing is. :D

[disposable]

I bet a Piiness gun is not far away...

[sikbeta]

Yeah..so cool, it probably works with this:

[pcz]

looks ridiculous.

[SilentNegotiator]

How cool would it have been if it did?

[SactoGamer]

...and all I could think was "oh my god, seriously?"

[IanCube]

Did you get to test it out yourself? Looks like they had playable demos of it going...

[SactoGamer]

I thought about it, but just couldn't bring myself to.

@News10... You're not a news gaming site r u? If so I think you would have at least tried it out b4 commenting. Things like this do work. Just like silent scope for the xbox!

[IanCube]

Wonder what Nintendo things about this thing.

They did try to intentionally name their "gun" the "zapper" to try and distance themselves from the whole gun issue. These people seem not to care, think Nintendo does?

[indiemike]

What is this even good for? The 10+ rail shooters on the Wii?

All I know is, I wish I had THAT scope for Duck Hunt back in the day.

[IanCube]

10+ games is still enough if you add up all the replay time each has...

[Relientk77]

time to get some headshots

:)

[GiantEnemyBOT]

Hey anyone remember the Onion doing the spoof with Modern Warfare 3? Remember the machine gun controller that comes with the Wii version? Yeah...not so farfetched after all lol

[IanCube]

You talking about this thing?

[Somnipotent]

what kinda people buy let alone use these kinda things?!

[SactoGamer]

Taliban.

No, really.

Okay, not really.

[ThanatosDMC]

HAHAHAH! I cant wait to see these in stores and see who'll buy 'em.

[indiemike]

I've used CTA Digital's past Wii shotgun, it was decent quality, the barrel and handle were removable. But it just felt pointless depending on the game.

I guess I really like the Wii Zapper, it is pretty comfy. I can't imagine that being comfy at all. Games are played for at least 20 minutes to an hour. Typically you hold a gun in that kind of position for a much shorter amount of time.

Controllers should be more about comfort, especially with plastic shells that HOLD controllers.

[Mikeyy]

I don't get it. Does the Scope do anything? looking through an empty hole toward the TV screen doesnt = Sniper Rifle.

[cyberwaffles]

lmao you're right, it technically isn't a sniper without a scope.

[Lykon]

so you hold a gun shaped piece of plastic looking down the scope at atari2600 graphics with inacurate aiming controls wtf. the emporer aint wearing any clothes.

[Obama]

Sad news is I don't think any dev bother to make a hardcore sniping game for the wii anymore..

[BYE]

Nice, now you can shoot enemies that are on your neighbors' screen across the street.

[indiemike]

I think it requires that you're on the roof of your house to use it, right?

[Infernostew]

This calls for a silent scope collection.

[bjornbear]

-_-

[SpoonyRedMage]

Yeh to all the people think "hurh, hurh, Wii sucks." Machine Gun peripherals are on the PS3 as well.

[Tomkar]

Wii does not suck because of these attachments smart as*

[SpoonyRedMage]

So you think the Wii doesn't suck because it has these attachments? That's just weird...

Come back when you have the required intelligence to adequately express your thoughts.

Smart as*.:)

[Tomkar]

I have my opinion and I did not feel like sharing it, you did not share an opinion so you can come back when you have the required intelligence to adequately express your thoughts. If you are going to respond, do it good and maybe even stir up a conversation. Fool...

[superootfan]

It looks kinda cool. It might be awesome to just buy it and spray paint it black and use it as a rather convincing toy. Wonder if COD reflex sniping would be at all improved by this addition... doubt it tho.

[xboxman08]

man thats nice when is 360 and ps3 gonna get a sniper rifle

[bigjclassic]

this looks like it will go hand and hand with that game.

[FwanK]

What i need is a Silent Scope remake for the PS3

[N4g_null]

Wow lol that is sick I'm getting one as soon as I can! I hope red steel 2 comes with unsharpen katana too!

I'd buy it just to hold an extra wii mote and it has motion plus hmmmmmmm.
Man would it be sick to get a compound bow for the real bow experience.

Lol
