'Pelican Duo Shot' Wiimote Bracket revealed. Verdict: Thumbs Up!

IGN gets an exclusive first hand look at the New hit lightgun style Wiimote bracket. And its a goodun'!

Pelican has informed us the Duo Shot is on schedule for a late-summer release. Pricing is expected to be set at $14.99.
When the first light-gun style games began to drop on the Wii last year, we were quick to begin trying to track down quality gun brackets for the Wiimote to make the experience a bit more authentic. The first to launch in American stores was the Core Gamer Wii Blaster (review), an awkward shotgun style bracket that didn't seem to do much to improve accuracy or gunplay fun. A bit later in the year the official Nintendo Wii Zapper launched, and sadly, we discovered that Nintendo had done nothing to address our complaints with its mushy trigger button we had expressed after playing with a prototype at E3. Indeed, though a wide variety of Hong Kong manufactured knock-offs soon flooded the market, it was not until we got our hands on Nyko's Perfect Shot (review) that we finally found a pistol-style Wiimote bracket that met our expectations for performance and accuracy
