Arcade gunfighter Fast Draw Showdown comes to WiiWare

Recommended Videos

In my mind, the live-action light gun American Laser Games were the best things to stick a quarter (well, dollar) into in arcades back in the day. Where else could you shoot a lightgun rifle at bad acting on bad “wild west” sets? Well, now you can do this on the Wii.

Fast Draw Showdown comes straight out of 1994’s arcades and onto your Wii via WiiWare, starting on January 5th. Your Wii Remote will be your revolver. Try spinning that dude on your finger. In the game you’ll go up against IRL quick draw champ Wes Flowers. Just seeing him in this trailer made me want to shoot him.

The Wiki on the game says that there’s a prostitute that taunts you between rounds. I guess that could be cool. And the music is hilarious.
