homerj Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 On my to-get list too. Not that cheap anymore, apparently. Around $25. Some of these Wii light gun games (e.g. Dino Strike) are pretty pricey! Definitely NOT worth $25.00 unless you're just looking to complete the collection. Dino Strike doesn't seem to be very common. I don't think I've ever seen it at any of my local chain stores. I bought it from a retro game booth at a local flea market. Something to consider if you're out looking for it is that I'm not sure it ever came in a normal case. It was bundled with a gun peripheral so it might have only come in a sleeve like Link's Crossbow Trainkng. That's how mine was. You might overlook it if you're not careful.

Skippy B. Coyote Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) Dino Strike did release in a full size normal plastic case as well as a cardboard sleeve like Link's Crossbow Training and Wii Sports, but they both seem to be going for $25 to $30 on eBay right now. I'd be totally fine with paying $25 + shipping for a plastic case copy but unfortunately the only ones that have shown up on eBay over the past few months are being sold by hucksters who want $40 to $50 for them, which is just ridiculous. Dino Strike is rare for sure, but it's not that rare. Edited August 30, 2018 by Jin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxpressed Posted September 20, 2018 Author Share Posted September 20, 2018 I picked up Medal of Honor Heroes 2 and Jurassic: The Hunted for good prices. There were a pair of Nyko Perfect Shots at the thrift for $2, so I got those too. Also got a pair of PS3 Sharpshooters. One came with Killzone 3, but I'm not too interested in that. Playing a PS3 Move launch game called "The Shoot" that's pretty fun and is appropriate for kids. Have "Time Crisis Razing Storm" on the way. I didn't have the PS3 at launch (or even at the Move launch). For all its problems in other games, the Move is a great a light gun accessory. These days it's pretty cheap to get it, the navigation controller, and the camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeps me interested anyhow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeps me interested anyhow. I've unlocked the second and third "movies" but am looking forward to the Haunted House one. I feel kind of stupid spinning around in a circle to activate the "showtime" weapon, but oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a lot of people don't like it for some reason but I do. The Razing Storm/Time Crisis 4/Deadstorm Pirates bundle is a great deal too. I love the Sharpshooter. It can get a little tiring if you play for long stretches but it really adds to the games & makes it feel more like an arcade experience.

boxpressed Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 Had a lot of fun with my 8 yo playing two player Chicken Riot (not to be confused with Chicken Shoot, which I hear is bad) with a pair of Nyko Perfect Shots. I let him blast away while I worked on accuracy. I bought the Wii near launch but am discovering that its a great system for kids this age.

boxpressed Posted October 15, 2018 Author Share Posted October 15, 2018 Picked these up because they were cheap. Dont have high hopes for Chicken Blaster. Dont know why there are THREE chicken shooting games on the Wii. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atarian63 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Zombie Panic in Wonderland is a fun mindless Wii Ware game when you just want to blast a ton of zombies? You could really go bananas in that one. Where can you get this, cannot find it anywhere. looks like fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

homerj Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Finally grabbed this one at a reasonable price. Thats really not bad st all. Its a fairly basic budget shooter but I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxpressed Posted January 30, 2019 Author Share Posted January 30, 2019 Thats really not bad st all. Its a fairly basic budget shooter but I like it. I picked it up in a mixed lot along with a few commons for $22 shipped. I wish the same would happen with Gunblade! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homerj Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Not a bad deal. I think I paid $10.00 or $20.00 for my Dino Strike in just the sleeve. Ive never run across it in the case. Ill keep my eyes open for a copy of Gunblade NY/LA Machineguns. I got mine locally 2 or 3 years ago & I dont think I paid more than $20.00. Probably more like $15.00. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxpressed Posted February 1, 2019 Author Share Posted February 1, 2019 Samurai Warriors Katana Attack of the Movies 3D I'm really enjoying Attack of the Movies 3D. I didn't have high expectations for it, but it is just the kind of short, mindless rail shooter that I love. Plus, it's fine for kids. I was playing it with my projector, and now I feel a little dizzy after the space combat movie! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxpressed Posted February 2, 2019 Author Share Posted February 2, 2019 OK, I cannot recommend Arcade Shooting Gallery, even though the premise sounds fun (rail shooter through an amusement park). Target: Terror, on the other hand, is a gas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
