Mod brings the Zapper to the Wii

If you're dying for some Zapper action on your Wii, you might want to check out this latest creation from a guy named 'cyberpyrot.'

What he has essentially done is took the IR sensor from the Wiimote and attached it to the end of a classic grey NES Zapper and rewired the 'B' button. Aside from keeping the Wiimote attached by say, a wrist strap, it gives you the feeling of playing Duck Hunt old school style

The video gives you a brief walkthrough of how the mod was accomplished and some footage of the Zapper in action. Very cool!
