DealExtreme has a new Wiimote cradle called the Pega Shark Gun. It runs for $10.86 and is shaped like one of the greatest creature of the seas. The Shark Gun is basically just like any of the other Wii light gun add-ons (pointless, waste of money, etc) except that it looks like a Shark ... and that you're technically shoving a Nunchuk into a Shark's ass.
I'm not a fan of these needless cradles coming out, but I just had to post about this once I saw it on Kotaku. For one thing, it will make shooting half naked chicks in Ghost Squad much more satisfying since you're using a Dolphin gun in the game. Sure, the Dolphin isn't anywhere near as amazing as a Shark, but it will just have to do.
And if you're really wondering why I posted this, then you obviously don't know that I'M A SHAARRRKKKK!

Sharks Win
Light Gun Shells Fail
I've heard Ghost Squad is really good, but it's like 2 hours long. Seriously, 2 hours. I plan to either rent it, or wait for it to hit true bargain bin status and pick it up for like 10 bucks.
2 hours of fun with your friends is worth 10 bucks, like going to the movies.
I'd say go with Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles, I played it with my little bro on Christmas and it was fun. The Zapper didn't work out so well with it, but it's functional once you learn the controls. I'd say you're better off without the zapper, but I use it anyway for the more gun like feel.
I also heard there was some kind of experience system that gives it a bit of replay value. More than anything I'm wondering how good it is for multiplayer.
I heard of somebody finding it for $12 at Target, so maybe I'll see if I can find it for cheap.
I wish there were more good light gun games for the Wii. I still have Time Crisis 3 and Ninja Assault sitting upstairs somewhere with two Guncons, but I don't have any TVs to play them on! (All my TVs are plasma/projection now.....)
Moar Blood and Gore in my lightgun games please!
Will it fire sharks out the barrel?
TRUE EXPERIENCE
How much you think they paid the soldier to pose with that shark gun in his hand? lol
Yeah i suck..
: )
"...will bring you a 'you are there' feel!"
I can't think of one real experience revolving soldiers shooting shark guns.... wait, I forgot, WWII. My bad, good game shark gun.
are you kidding me?! not only do they taste better, but dolphins are more fearsome! sharks are scared of dolphins!! as seen here: http://rawstory.com/rawreplay/index.php?p=73
not to mention dolphins are cute as hell
Chad needs a Dolphin-shaped gun. Hurray for The Wii Shark Gun.
I'd be yelling suck my dick the whole time.
I like it.
I see what you did there
You're thinking of the Vii
