It&#8217;s cumbersome, clumsy, and I do not want to pull a trigger with my left hand!  That ruins everything.  I recommend going Blaster-less or grabbing a 3rd party controller. I&#8217;ve seen shotguns, pistols, and I got two Nyco Pistol Controllers and they&#8217;re fantastic for this, Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles and House of the Dead 2&amp;3 Return.<\/p>\n<p>Link&#8217;s game is fun, if simple. Its well made and perfect for kids because the violence level is really low but the challenge is high. I&#8217;d recommend it to anyone who doesn&#8217;t mind their kids playing with fake guns &#8211; and really, it&#8217;s just fun and fun as heck using just the Wii remote.<\/p>\n<p>Lets say&#8230; 11 out of 14 bolts and appropriate for 10+ &#8211; the ESRB says Teen but that&#8217;s only because guns are controversial.  You know already if you agree with that assessment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GamerDad.com&#8217;s very first review was The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker so I&#8217;m especially proud to make Link&#8217;s Crossbow Training the first review at the new merged GamerDad and GamingWithChildren websites.
