VC Friday: Yee-haw!

Light gun game Wild West Guns rides into town the European Wii Shop today for its worldwide debut, complete with Zapper compatibility, six levels, four-player support, and a whole host of mildly offensive steretypes. Truth be told, it looks quite fun in the post-break trailer -- certainly a lot more engaging than, say, Target Terror. Far more importantly, it gave us an excuse to post a Will Smith video. Wicky, wicky!
Defend Your Castle has also finally arrived, and is totally worth a look.

Wild West Guns reminds me strongly of some game, but I can't figure out what. Right down to the dollar figure instead of point totals. Either way, looks like fun and I love the idea of light gun games coming to Wiiware. Perfect value and easy distribution.

Tin Star for SNES? That's what it reminded ME of. :)

I haven't checked out the Wii Shopping Channel since launch day, but now I have a reason. Wild West here I come - just need to get some Wii points first.

Needs more zombies.

I can see Wild West Guns being well worth $10, especially as a drunken diversion.

they need to release Wild Gunman for the virtual console.
You mean you have to use your hands? Thats like a babies toy!

I'm gonna get both of these. They both look like quality games.

lol, obviously not a fan of light gun games.

No I am, but there are too many on the Wii...they are all the same, just would like to see something a little more innovative.
Lord Bowser @ Aug 2nd 2008 7:05AM
Elaborate on what more you want. Not to be rude, but you cannot chant "innovation, innovation" without a true idea on what it iis you desire. These games do not appeal to me, nothing on WiiWare appeals to me, but I know the reason why. What's your reason?

@Bowser,
Well, I'm not Daniel, but I think they should have added character control like Wild Guns on the SNES. That game was incredible.
Sisyphus @ Aug 2nd 2008 12:58PM
There are only what... 5 light gun games, counting this?
