Every one be warned now - DO NOT GET THE DREAM GEAR GAME BLASTER! It is common knowledge now that there are Nyko Perfect Shot, but it is more important to know that this horribly designed Zapper from Dream Gear called the “Game Blaster” is the worst on the market. I couldn’t find a larger picture (sorry) but this one will do well enough. If you look you can see that the trigger finger is designed to sit on the z and c buttons on the nunchuck instead of the b button on the wiimote. This is stupid for at least two reasons.

Nyko is releasing a “zapper” of their own, and according to IGN it is better than Nintendo’s Wii Zapper. Nyko’s Perfect Shot is “Better than the Zapper in every respect. Trigger is tighter, more tactile. Easier to aim thanks to one-handed design”. Even though I haven’t had my hands on the Nyko Perfect Shot myself I would have to say that I would much rather play with a pistol than a shotgun like two-handed zapper. It is strange and unfortunate that Nintendo would be shown up by a 3rd party accessory maker. Especially when they already have the perfect design for a zapper.
