Wii Bleg
I’ve had a Wii for a while. Great fun even though I only have like three games. I was thinking about getting a shooting game. Hsoi seems to like the Nyko perfect shot as an accessory. But what other shoot ’em up games are there and are there any shoot ’em up games for kids?

The only shooting games I have are mini-games such as Wii Play and Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games (Skeet is pretty fun!)
as for Kid shooters there appears to be a bunch of kid-oriented shooters in the WiiWare. So it’ll also go easy on your wallet!

X2 on the Perfect Shot; unless you like Glocks.
I like the Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles. It’s an arcade-style zombie fest, so you don’t really need to be into the series to play it.

My kids and I have lots of fun playing Nerf NStrike on the Wii. My wife liked the kids playing it, shooting robots with nerf dats, than blasting Russians in the head on Call of Duty Modern Warfare.

I have Resident Evil 4 for Wii. It’s a pretty decent game and the translation to Wii worked pretty well. The only disadvantage is that the wife thinks it’s gross and hates when I play it while she’s in the room.

I agree with Mike Gallo. Call of Duty: World At War is pretty good, as well.
I don’t know about eitherb eing for kids, but “The Conduit” is also a great FPS game. It has a unique story and the gameplay is very dynamic. SOmetimes, TOO dynamic, though. Also, a bleg, is that it is EXTREMELY sensitive for pointing. Until you get used to it, you’ll want to turn it waaaay down.
If you get The Conduit, we can have online matches! I’m a noob as well.

Get Link’s Crossbow Training. It features Link, the main character from Legend of Zelda. And it comes with a cool gun thing that incorporates the Wiimote and the nunchuk for moving around. Some people don’t like the gun but like the game it comes with. But all in all it is a very good deal for $20.

The house of the dead game on there is pretty fun, but definitely not for kids. Favorite weapon in the game being the hand cannon.

Call of duty series, Resident evil 4 and resident evil umbrella chronicles, and there will be another resident evil shooter coming out next year. dead space extraction, House of the dead series.
People thought The Conduit was good. Not me. I want to get red steel 2 when it comes out. A game I really wanted was Sadness but I think it was cancelled. Not a peep out of the developers for over a year.
