It used to be $4.99 used, but now it's $2.99.
I personally think it's a pretty good game--for what it is--and I really enjoy the Wii Zapper. However, the Wii Zapper isn't for everyone..but this game is still pretty fun.
Not sure how many people will jump on this, but for $3? At least check it out!

Nice. Probably not worth a special trip over there for $3, but I'll check for one the next time I'm there.

so it may come with the zapper? or it definitely will not?

The product title on EB's page says game only.

I don't have a Wii, but my brother does and it was his birthday, so I picked up Mortal Kombat: Armageddon as well as Crossbow Training yesterday. Got both with the Edge Card for $26 and some change out the door.
Crossbow Training came with the game disk and the booklet in a generic GameStop DVD case. I have not been over to his place to play it yet, but I figured for $3... what the hey!

for $3 it's worth it... the zapper is pointless...

I saw this the other day and it looks like someone traded in their copy with a custom cover. I had to do a double take thinking that NOA actually released it separately or something.

I don't need the Zapper. Just the game is worth $3. All my local stores have it in stock :)

Wow.

zapper is useful... imho. especially with crossbow training, which requires yu to be somewhat precise, it helps steady your aim.
but others don't agree.

The Wii Zapper sucks balls, a literal piece of garbage. The Nyko Perfect Shot is MUCH better.
So, thanks for the find OP :).

ROFL, Soooo gonna pick one up if I ever see one. Have the Perfect Shot already, so this'll be fun to use it with.
Also: For those that have it, did it come w/ instructions or a case, or is "complete" technically the disc.

it comes in a case like wii sports did, a cardboard cd sized flap with instruction manual

Thank you! As long as GS has the instructions, I'll be cool (not that they're needed for this game, but I'm anal about stuff like that)
Thanks again!

i have both, and they're both good in different ways... but, thanks for that insightful response!

Can anyone link to a proper DVD case label? I remember someone made one for Wii Sports and I imagine someone did a proper case label for it as well.

Thanks for the news, I'll try to pick this up if I go by there.
The game looks fun and at 3 bucks is a steal. Maybe this will makeup for the fact that I missed fire emblem at CC.

i got this for $2.50 with the cellphone coupon... Nice deal, but too bad theres no manual.

Oh come on. This is just a mini-game game. You really don't need a case & instruction booklet! :lol:
(Though I'd probably be the same way!)

The local store's selection always sucks here so I went ahead and ordered online. Thanks for the heads up OP!

Got mine at the local GS minutes ago, complete with the cardboard sleeve and the instruction manual!
Thanks for the knowledge of another great deal, lilboo!

Absolutely true. And then, since you're saving money you should also download Wild West Guns on WiiWare, since it's also really fun and is basically the same game with cowboys.

some stores near me have them that I can walk to. I'm really low on cash so this is a great price to tide the time.

I have the game w/o the zapper, and I enjoy it. I would jump on this if I didn't have it already.

how fast paced is it compared to HotD2/3 and Ghost Squad? I love the quick pacing of those two games, but this sounds slower.

it's not really like those... it's more of a trainer. i.e. if you've played the zapper stage on Wii Play, you know exactly what to expect.
the "fps" parts are somewhat interesting, in that you control link as he walks around a few very constrained stages based off of twilight princess.
ghost squad is far and away the best wii light gun shooter... link's crossbow training doesn't even compare, but for $3, it's worth it.

Picked one up complete with instructions and sleeve. Disc was flawless too, like it hadn't been played. Not a bad deal for $2.69 (after Edge discount). Thanks OP!
