Nintendo could mass produce and then sell me one of these in a heartbeat.

Interesting development.

As close to that Proton Gun Wiimote accessory we'll ever get.

Very interesting update from him. Apparently, the in-game pack’s lights and sounds are integrated into his real-world pack in real time:


“The cyclotron features four blue LEDs allowing you to know which player is selected or active and the Blue Power Cell actually shows you how much power the pack has.” “Since the Wii-mote has in internal speaker in it’s ABS housing, when playing the game the pack makes all the iconic Ghostbusters SFX. And being that the Wii utilizes wireless technology, the wand is not tethered to the pack via a cord.”

I was looking at that on Kotaku, and that is a DO WANT situation right there.

I saw that, and as much as I've sworn off the Wii plastic accessories, I'd totally cross the picket line to pick that wonderment up.

I just bought the game.

What is the best Wii gun that would be similar to the Ghostbusters gun?

I saw at the store there is a rifle and the star wars blaster.

What would make the game the most fun and realistic to the feel of the game?

Surprisingly, the Wii Zapper wasn't a bad “proton gun”. You get used to it after a few minutes of play.
