Wii And PS3 Gun Controllers

on 01/11/2010, filed in Home > Gaming

[CES 2010] Want to get more serious about gaming on your Nintendo Wii or Sony PS3? These gun controllers from CTA Digital on show at CES will certainly give you a more realistic feel to your gaming sessions. Both have been labeled as sniper guns, though the PS3 model sure looks a lot like an AK-47. Apparently the sniper scopes are there for show, not for gaming accuracy (boo). The Wii version will require you to use your own Wiimote and Wii Motion Plus attachment, while the PS3 version will sport its own built-in joystick, D-pad, and doesn’t need any additional hardware (aside from your PS3). There isn’t any mention of when the PS3 gun will be available, but the Wii gun is already up for pre-order on Amazon for $39.99, and should begin shipping on the 20th of Jan.

CES: CES is the acronym for the (International) Consumer Electronics Show, one of the largest consumer-electronics shows in the world. Although it is held in Las Vegas today, the first CES happened in June 1967 in New York City and Bob Gavin, the CEO of Motorola was the opening keynote speaker for that first edition. Subsequently, CES was held twice a year: the summer edition was in New York, and the winter edition was in Las Vegas, that is, until 1998 when CES became a once-a-year show. CES has been the introduction place for key products and technologies, including: Pong (1975), Nintendo NES (1985), Tetris (1988), Compact Disc (1991), HDTV (1998), Xbox (2001), Blu-Ray (2003), OLED TV (2008).
