KMD Wii Buckshot with Intergrated Analog Controller Chrome Red

This is absolutely the best gun accessory you can get! Though for certain rail shooters like Umbrella and Darkside chronicles, I'd recommend getting the quick-shot pro since you'll need access to the A button during quick time events. I freak'n love this thing, I don't see where some of the negativity on here is coming from. First off it's not heavy, AT ALL. On the contrary, it's pretty light and second the pump handle isn't too wide either. Honestly it's the perfect width and feels just right. Aesthetically, it's stunning to look at and made of good material. The grips have a really nice texture too. The Wiimote is easy to insert and fits snuggly into place. The nunchuck is built into the controller, it doesn't have any texture so it could get slippery but you can always add a grip. There's a nice locking mechanism so you don't have to go through the hassle of trying to get the botton of the wiimote connected when you're putting it in and it has a little ribbon to make it easy to pull out. My only complaint really is that the trigger is pretty squeaky but you don't really notice it when you're busy blasting zombies. To be nit-picky a built in A Button would have been nice but oh well. One more thing to note, the buck-shot works perfectly with House of the Dead: Overkill! Reloading with the pump 'n all. Both HIGHLY Recommended!

Product was great until I took it out to try it. The integrated Analog Controller similar to that of the wii nunchuk doesn't work at all, only the pump slide feature and the trigger button works. Also the port that inserts into the wii remote that gets the baby functioning doesn't want to stick out and plug into the wii remote like its supposed to causing it to instead pop back inside the shotgun. You have to go through alot of trouble just to force it out and get it into the wii remote so it does connect and work but the shotgun itself still wont work except the features mentioned above. The product never should have passed inspection if it was broken to begin with. Unfortunately I finally got the chance to try it just today and it expired so I canno't get it replaced, I'm most dissappointed and was so looking forward to trying it out on my new Wii Game I bought specifically for it. Hopefully the second one works like its supposed to.

<<< Please Note That I Have Included Pictures to Go Along With My Review of the Buckshot. These Can Be Seen In the Product Description Photos Above. Sections of My Review Related to These Pictures Are Referenced by (@Photo) Below >> I originally purchased the newer model of the Wii Crossfire to replace the Zapper and Wii Remote. I was not quite satisfied with the product and ended up returning it to Amazon (See my full review below). Ultimately, I decided I wanted to play more old-fashioned arcade style shooters that had less convoluted control schemes. I decided to keep the following games, and sell off the rest: 1.) House of the Dead 2 & 3 Return 2.) Ghost Squad 3.) Arcade Hits Pack: NY Gunblade and LA Machineguns 4.) Link's Crossbow The remainder of my light-gun games can use any sort of Peripheral and only require using A + B. I regularly watch Classic Game Room Reviews on Youtube, and thought the Wii Buckshot looked like an interesting concept given his glowing praise. ***Since the limitations of the Buckshot's design (limited access to buttons) would not be a problem for me, I decided to give it a try. I already KNEW that the buttons would be inaccessible before I made the purchase, so this is not heavily factored into my review. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The buckshot is quite large (4 inches longer than the zapper) and heavy (2x the weight of the zapper with nunchuk included), as other reviewers have stated. The pump-load on the bottom is very wide (wider than a real shotgun), which feels a little odd when holding. *(@Photo) Due to the length you really cant hold it out in front of you to use. Rather, you need to have the rear of the gun tucked against your side to accurately aim and have a more comfortable grip. The Wii buckshot also has a very odd set of mechanisms to hit the button. The trigger hits the B-button in almost the same manner as the Zapper. A rounded lever pulls forward and depresses the button. *(@Photo) You can "rapid fire," but only as fast as you can fully pull the trigger and release it back to original position. Gravity helps the Zapper fire much faster since the trigger hits a lever up and down. The "pump" section mechanically depresses the A-button. As you pull back the pump it moves a set of pegs running along both sides of the Wiimote that are attached in a wishbone figure and connected to a large spring at the base. These pegs fit into 2 holes in a flat piece of plastic connected with a separate spring located on the snap-down cover on top of the gun. This flat piece of plastic has a curved end (like a wide hook) that brushes against the A-button to depress it. You have to pull the pump ALL the way back to move the pegs enough to pull the curved plastic against the A-button. Does that sound complicated?? Well, guess what, it is! *(@Photo) Here's the problem with the way this is set up: 1.)The top lid has to be fully snapped close to use the pump feature or else the pegs will not lock into the plastic slider. You CANNOT remove (or leave open) the top cover for button access and still use the pump feature 2.) Both springs are not high quality, and the pegs are made from VERY brittle plastic - I guarantee you that rough use will easily break the slider or pegs. The springs will actually flex outwards as they are compressed. The integrated nunchuk works adequately, but the joystick has a lot of give before reaching the point where it begins to move something onscreen (about 2mm in all directions). Once you reach that point, it actually seems tight. The joystick is smaller, has no texturing and thus is more difficult to use than an official 1st party nunchuk. The buttons also work fine, but everything is painted in the same slick red paint making it easy to slide off the button. The lock button for the integrated nunchuk also sticks against the paint as you try to move it through the groove towards the front. Speaking of the red paint, There are patches all over the inside of the gun where the paint didn't reach. It looks like they used a spray-gun in a hurry. *(@Photo) Have you ever spray-painted something quickly and it overshot onto something else? Do you recall that "mist" of paint covering something nearby? Well parts of the inside have that look all over, like they spray painted the major parts of the interior and then just moved on. The WORST part is that the type of paint they used is CHEAP. When I put the Wii controller into the alloted space (1st party Nintendo controller) it fits tightly into the slot. When you use the ribbon to pull it out (think smoke detector battery ribbon) the Wii controller has red paint marks all over it. Most of them rub off pretty easily, but there are still a few small scratches and paint lines from using the Buckshot. So...does the Buckshot WORK? Well, yes in a way... It provides a housing for the Wii that features a functional trigger for the B-button and a decent integrated nunchuk. But...TAKE THIS INTO ACCOUNT: -------------------------- 1.) Almost NO games utilize the A-button to reload (most have you shake the controller or shoot/look offscreen), so the overly complicated pump feature is almost useless. 2.) The lid and interior is made from brittle plastic - MINE already had chips along the edges and I purchased it BRAND NEW from Amazon. The lid closure snaps (two pieces of plastic shaped like a hook) are made from the same type of material as well. 3.) The length and weight of the gun detract more than you might think (I initially thought they would add to the experience). 4.) This cannot be used with any games that require +/-, 1/2, or a separate reload shake from the nunchuk. (give it a try, it hardly ever works) 5.) The price tag is definitely NOT justified by the product. Overall, 2 stars out of 5. For the price, The Crossfire is the better purchase even though it still has issues of its own. When all is said and done, I have ultimately found myself returning to the Wii Zapper I was trying so hard to replace. I guess that speaks for itself. *** FOR MY ORIGINAL REVIEW OF THE WII CROSSFIRE VERSION 2 Wii Crossfire Integrated Remote Pistol PLEASE SEE MY FULL LIST OF REVIEWS

As something of a Wii gunshell nut, when I first saw the Buckshot Lock and Load, I knew I had to have it. Now that it's here, I discovered a few things I hadn't thought of previously. First off, it is incredibly well-built. It feels solid in your hands, the trigger has good pull to it, and the pump action feels very smooth (after a few pumps to break it in at first it was a little stiff and jerky, and it liked to hang on the last inch or so when resettling.) The chrome finish looks great, and the rubberized grips feel good under your palms. It doesn't come with any instructions, but it's easy enough to figure out. ALWAYS USE THE RIBBON WHEN INSERTING THE WII REMOTE! The first time, I ignored it, and I had a devil of a time trying to remove the remote. The integrated nunchuck works wonderfully, though for me, it feels a little odd pushing a control stick with my right hand. But then, I'm not used to dual control sticks, so anyone used to an XBox or Playstation controller probably wouldn't have an issue. The control stick seems to have a tiny bit more tension than the Nintendo Nunchuck's, but I personally like that; it feels more solid. As far as gameplay, though, I have yet to find very many practical uses for the Buckshot overall. The Wiimote is completely sealed and isolated inside the gun, so if you want to use anything other than the A or B buttons, you'll have to open the little door on top to do it, which is really a hassle when you're busy shooting zombies/terrorists/whatever. So far, I have tested this with Ghost Squad, Red Steel 2, and Goldeneye Wii, and only Ghost Squad is really applicable to the Buckshot. Red Steel 2 (which I played using a Wii Remote with integrated MotionPlus there's no room to use the MotionPlus dongle) worked pretty well, and even using the sword wasn't too awkward, but the Minus button (reload) isn't accessible (which isn't a big deal, since you automatically reload when you run out and it really doesn't matter much), and it is very difficult to use the advanced sword techniques. Goldeneye is simply not an option, since so many vital controls are blocked. Ghost Squad was really great, though. The aim was dead on, and it was great having the Z-button (which I had set a the action button) right under my thumb without having to bother reaching for the A or fool with a separate Nunchuck. The biggest disappointment is the fact that so few games have the option to reload with the A button, which means that the pump action is rarely if ever actually useful. With rail shooters you shoot off-screen, and with most FPS you either gesture the Wiimote or push some other button. It's really a shame, as the pump action works so well. Despite all these criticisms, I still do love the Buckshot and am glad I bought it. It feels great to hold, and it just plain looks cool. I would definitely suggest it to anyone who's into Wii lightguns or casual shooter games. Enjoy!

I base this on my younger brother experience who seem to love it. But complains that it is a bit heavy for long game play. It looks good not like the other wii zappers out there. And its fun, durable (and it been tested lol), and so far had it for about 6 months and no problems. will say that the analog stick in the back does get stock at time, and does not feel as smooth as it should be... but shipping was great, arrive in 4 days, and came with no problems at all. everything work just as explained. would recommend it from this company

I dont know why people dont like this. I got this along with the CTA Sure Shot, which is equally awesome. That one is better for story modes where you move around. The Buckshot can do that, but the Sure shot is more comfortable. But for shooting galleries and rail shooters, this is the clear winner. It is not only just cooler looking, but it is faster and the buttons are actually pretty good. My only complaint is I had to take the strap off the wiimote in order to put it in, which isnt too bad. Whether your doing a shooting gallery in Cabela's 2011 or blasting zombies in house of the dead, this is easily one of the best peripherals out there.

Sucks to use with big buck hunter pro, no control when reloading and pump action has to be pumped very hard in order to get it to the very last bit, then it will push the reload button :(

I was excited to get this and open it. when i got it open and put in my games i noticed that the down on the joy stick didnt work so thinking it was just the game i put in a different game come to find out the up and down on the joy stick did not work. if you are ordering this pay close attention to the negitive feed back not just the positive.
