This is the game that taught me that I desperately need a third-person shooter set in the Zelda universe because man this game is alright but can be made way better with the advancements the game industry has had over the years.

Loooool who played this
Zapper is cool though

Sort of Tech Demo for the Wii Scope based on Twilight Princess. It's a really quick and fun minigame to play ... but there isn't that much to do here and you can finish everything in 1 session without trouble.

[ 6.5 / 10 ]

A tech demo to showcase the Wii's controller abilities with the Wii sensor bar. Fun but rather bland and short.

I think this was my first Zelda game


marginally more enjoyable than Twilight Princess but man what the fuck

they made this over a sequel to twilight princess

The wii was really a crazy time.

It's an ok spinoff. The Wii Zapper controls were pretty cool and I liked how it was connected to Twilight Princess.

They made wii play minigames out of Twilight Princess. This game just confuses me. Why use Twilight Princess to make a demo pack-in game for the Wii Zapper? Why does the Wii Zapper even need a pack-in game? The wii zapper is just a piece of plastic, this game is 100% playable without it. No particular features of the zapper are utilized in this outside of the pointer controls, but Wii Play already kinda existed to be a demonstration of the pointer controls.

The actual gameplay itself is just a bunch of rail-shootery light gun gamey missions that you do in a quick succession. The game really favors accuracy over speed as getting hit combos is the easiest way to get points by far, and missing one shot drops a combo. If you play cautiously and refine your run, getting platinum rankings on each of the stages is a cakewalk.

When I looked up the development of this game, thinking it was just a quick job to make a quick little pack in title for the wii zapper, I was even more confused with the development history of this game than I was with the actual game itself. Apparently this could have been a sequel to twilight princess, or some weird terminator-styled side story where they gave link a gun. Despite the empty-calorie feeling this game has in its own playtime, it's like an hour long to go through everything and the minigames still have a solid level of polish put into them so it doesn't feel like no care was put into it. Worth a shot off of curiosity alone, I'd say.

This scratched an itch and im not afraid to say it

Pretty nice to discover

Was fun playing with family

Honestly so much more than just the game that came with the Zapper!

the wii zapper was the coolest gimmick the console ever had that was used for maybe 2 or 3 games what a sick joke
i mean yeah u coulda used it for like red steel or smth if ur a psycho

When I was a kid, I thought the Zapper was the coolest shit ever.

So much for that.

A tech demo for the Wii's zapper control and wiimote pointing capabilities with a coat of Zelda paint (themed after Twilight Princess). It's fairly short and straight to the point and was worth the price of admission (especially if you are a Zelda fan).

Has some good moments but it's not worth it in general. Also there was supposed to be an equivalent of Majora's Mask for Twilight and it got canned in favour of this piece of crap I am so mad.

most random game to ever exist. Played a fair bit of it and even bought the damn crossbow gun wii accessory thing.

Stranamente, questo spin-off di The Legend of Zelda funziona davvero bene, tuttavia l'assenza di una campagna singleplayer rende questo videogioco fine a se stesso, come se fosse una tech-demo.

I have three copies of this game. Literally every person I know owns this game. Even my grandma owns this game and she doesn't even have a Wii. Decent game, not much to it! Beating that knight meant a lot to me as a kid.

the fact this couldve been twilight princess 2 kills me


Did anyone actually like this gun controller?

Everyone's always asking for Twilight Princess on Switch, wouldn't it be hilarious if we ported this one instead
