Unlike the official Nintendo Wii lightgun accessory that has the trigger up in the front hand—which is more awkward than Frankenstein dancing—the dreamGEAR Wii GameBlaster has only one trigger, and it's in the back. Also unlike the official gun, it takes in both the Wiimote and the Nunchuk controller and connects the two without visible wires. This actually looks better than the real thing, and if you can somehow reprogram the trigger button in-game to be on the Nunchuk instead of on the Wiimote, you've got yourself the optimal zombie shooting experience.

The Wii Zapper is meant to be able to press as many buttons while still being in the wii shape. i have a feeling that this controller will feel awkward with the large amount of weight in the end and the least in the front unless of course you were 2 use 2 hands, and in that case its the exact same idea as the wii zapper, it even has a button for the B button trigger.

looks good but it also looks like after a while it will tire your arm

The fault with that is the trigger is at the front, and the remote buttons are now useless.

If the "Gameblaster" somehow had a second trigger which was connected to the Wii remote and positioned at the rear of the product next to the Z button it would be much better.
